The Word gave life to everything that was created and his life brought light to everyone.

WORD BRINGS LIGHT & LIFE
A poem and essay by ILMA
God breathed life to all creatures through his word
It has power and it brings light to the entire world
His Word brings light especially to those living in darkness
It releases power and strength to the helpless and hopeless.
Whenever you seek the Word, you are filled with life
Those who are blinded by the world, lose their sight
The word is life to those who believe and obey
Say it out loud regularly especially when you pray.

God created everything by breathing life on his creation. Words are very important. They can encourage, uplift or destroy someone. Saying out loud what is in your mind has power. Have you ever experienced saying something that you regretted later on? What you usually utter cannot be taken back anymore. We have to be careful what we say. Confessing with the mouth is one of the most powerful tool to defeat the enemy. Jesus used Scriptures to talk back to the devil. He reminded the enemy of the truth.
The bible says that it is through faith and confessing with the mouth that we can be victorious as Christians. The book of John emphasizes the importance of the word of God. It brings life to those who use it and confess it.
PRAYER
Thank you for your words which bring life and light.
REFLECTION
How has God’s word changed you?
