Words That Stand

“Now it happened, when they spoke to him daily and he would not listen to them, that they told it to Haman, to see whether Mordecai’s words would stand; for Mordecai had told them that he was a Jew.” Esther 3:4

God’s Word will stand forever.

Lord, we desire to live upon the sureness of Your Word. And here’s a simple poem . . .

Staying Power

Promises I’ve kept
and broken

the words I
write and say

will not
last forever

but Yours, Oh Lord
will stay.

Great reminder Deb. God’s Word is truly eternal just as the Son (the Word) revealed God to those on earth during His ministry; so too the Bible now continues to reveal our Lord to us. Most important document there is on earth. Lord bless.

Thank you, Dearest Deb

“Lord, we desire to live upon the sureness of Your Word.”
Amen.

I will remember this today and tomorrow….

My words pass like dust in the wind, but His remains forever. My life is worth living because He speaks life into my dead situations. I can trust that what He says is indeed so!

Blessings

I love what you wrote, Ann full of grace and song . . how He speaks life into our dead situations. His Word can do that and how we need Him and His trustworthiness in this time when everything can change and shift and sink so quickly. God bless you and remind you again and again, of His love and faithfulness towards you.

Staying power – maybe it’s easy to forget His (for a moment) because we’ve so often, as you’ve said, given ours away. Beautiful reminder of the Words the truly last. Thank you my sweet friend.
I’ll ‘see you’ in a month – but I’ll carry you and Aub in my heart and in my prayers.

Yes, Deb, God’s Word endures forever, and what’s more, it remains current throughout all history, because God never changes. And there’s more! God’s Word is totally true, totally reliable, totally applicable. It has the answer for EVERY problem we face. It is the Sword of the Spirit and will answer every critic. What more could we want? Well, we have more, because the Living Word is present with the written Word; and Holy Spirit is present to reveal its truths to us and give understanding, and to bring our attention to the portions that we need for a specific time. And there’s more . . . God is limitless. His Word is limitless.

What an AMAZING God!
