"War of Words" Series - Part 1. The 1st Words

From Our Pastor's Desk

John 1:1-4, 14 – “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.

All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made…And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth”  Friend, a key to our warfare is Jesus Christ. 

He is the Word of God. We should base our warfare on the Word. The Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, is our offensive weapon. 

It is incredibly powerful and effective at driving away the enemy and tearing down his work. Some Christians are reluctant to speak directly to satan and his demons. 

Yet God has clearly told us that they are the enemy and that He has given us a powerful weapon to use against them in the form of the sword of the spirit, which is the Word of God. 

To attack our spiritual enemies with the Word means simply that we must speak God's Word against them.  This season of the Lord’s Army, we want to look at the first words spoken by some speakers, their beginning words, which are significant and really show us how the speakers fight their battles. 

Following the Biblical Law of First Mention, which simply means that the very first time any important word is mentioned/spoken in the Bible is key to understanding the word's Biblical concept, the speaker, and to also provide a foundation for its fuller development in later parts of the Bible. 

So, we’re looking at “the 1st Words of God, man, and satan”. Lord, “In the beginning was the Word”; let your Word create a new beginning for us, in Jesus mighty Name. Amen.  

You will have a great turn-around this 2020. 

Remain blessed.  

Shalom.
