FOREVER SETTLED


 


FOREVER SETTLED

 

 

“FOREVER, O LORD, YOUR WORD IS SETTLED in heaven [standing firm and unchangeable].” (Ps119:89AMP)

 

·       "God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He SPOKEN, and will He not make it good? (Num23:19NKJV)

 

·       “I am the LORD; I have SPOKEN, and I will perform it.” (Eze17:24NASB95)

 

·       “…I am watching over MY WORD to perform it." (Jer1:12NASB95)

 

·       “For I am the Lord; I will speak, and THE WORD that I shall SPEAK shall be performed (come to pass)…” (Eze12:25AMPC)

 

·        “…as I have thought, so it shall come to pass, And as I have purposed, so it shall stand.” (Isa14:24NKJV)

 

·       “I am the LORD, I do not change;” (Mal3:6NKJV)

 

·       “My covenant I will not break, Nor alter THE WORD that has gone out of My lips.” (Ps89:34NKJV)

 

 

Lk4:10AMP aptly states:

“FOR IT IS WRITTEN AND FOREVER REMAINS WRITTEN”

 

The Greek word “γέγραπται (gegraptai)” is translated, “IT IS WRITTEN” 67 times in the New Testament as a perfect indicative verb.

 

Thus, it describes an action that was completed in the past,

                  but whose results are still relevant

continuing in perpetuity.

 

It focuses on the resulting state, not the action itself.

 

You see this with other verbs like τετέλεσται (tetelestai) in John 19:28,

meaning "it has been finished" or "it is completed,"

referring to JESUS’ WORK,

showing a completed action with ongoing results. 

 

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end." (Rev22:13NASB95)

 

 

Jesus Christ IS THE WORD!

                  …THE “logos” (WORD)

                                    “logos” …the very thought, intent, purpose, and motive BEHIND everything YHWH said or did from the beginning

 

 

John 1:1-3,14NKJV

In the beginning was the WORD (logos)

and the WORD (logos) was with God,

and the WORD (logos) was God.

HE was in the beginning with God.

All things were made through HIM,

and without HIM nothing was made that was made.

And the WORD (logos) became flesh

and dwelt among us,

and we beheld HIS glory…”

 

 

Christ, the WORD is “THE EXPRESS IMAGE (charakter) of the Father”, who, through HIM “made the worlds” and upholds “all things by the WORD of His power” (Heb1:2-3NKJV)

 

 

Heb13:8NKJV “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”

 

The WORD (logos) is the same… HE CHANGES NOT

 

In HIM there is “no variation or shadow of turning.” (Jas1:17NKJV)

 

The only variable is me.

I choose whether I vary, waver, or doubt…

OR… am steadfast, unshakable, and immovable in His WORD,

 

 

Mk13:31NASB95 “Heaven and earth will pass away, but MY WORDS will not pass away.”

 

“…the WORD of the LORD endures FOREVER.” (1Pet1:25NKJV)

 

 

                                    …FOREVER SETTLED!

LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK

LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK?     People say, , “God told me”…  or “Holy Spirit directed me…”or… “this business belongs to Jesus, He tells me what to do!”     WHY?     Why do they preface THEIR works with such statements?     Isn’t it a ruse of the enemy to keep them unapproachable, uncorrectable, and continuing their own way without interference? … ITS INTENT: prevent ANYONE from speaking into them or the situation… After all… “who are YOU to contradict what God has said?”     “Every tree is known by his own fruit.” (Lk6:44) “…by their fruits you shall know them.” (Mtt7:20)   An apple tree does not have to tell you it is one… it just bears apples! …a cherry tree bears cherries.    You can tell a Dogwood Tree by its “Bark”… well… maybe that doesn’t fit the analogy.     If I have to tell you I am a certain type of tree, it is probably because there is NO FRUIT to make identification easy.     “He that speak...

FORMING YOUR WORLD

  Forming Your World     Have you been in a place in life where you feel like your world has no form, reason, nor rationale to it… like it is void of meaning or direction… and it seems like the darkness is so deep and thick that you not only can't see, but are so disoriented you have no clue as to which way is up?     How do you get out of THAT?     Gen1:1-2 describes just that scenario, but on a grand universal scale: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep.”     The rest of verse 2 begins to show the hope in the midst of the vast void…                   “…And the Spirit of God MOVED UPON the face of the waters.”             “MOVED UPON” is from a primitive Hebrew root word meaning: to brood: to hover, flutte...

CONVICTION

Image
  CONVICTION   I have frequently heard the phrase, “the Holy Spirit CONVICTED me”… or… “I was CONVICTED by the Lord”.  As a young boy I was taught that God was this big eye in the sky continually watching to see if I was being good… and the Holy Spirit, being on my shoulder, would  speak in my ear to bring that guilt… shaming me back to the right path.the moment I stepped out of line   But… why did Jesus send the Holy Spirit to us?     In  Jn16:7 Christ calls the Holy Spirit “ THE COMFORTER ”. He uses the term, “ parakletos ”, which was used in NT times of an  attorney (lawyer)… someone  giving evidence that stands up in court .   It comes from two words: “ para ” (close-beside), and “ kaleo ” (make a call). The word properly means: a legal advocate, advisor, or alongside helper who makes the right judgment- call  because  close  enough to the situation.       Zech3 clearly portrays a courtroom drama u...
