The Word of God

The Word of God
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

The Word of God
The living Word.
Truth. Light.
Holy. Pure.
Bread. Seed.
Comfort. Hope.
Strength. Guidance.
Quick. Powerful. Sharp.
The sword of the Spirit.
 
No weapon can dull its blade.
No enemy can bring it down.
No ruler can cancel its authority.
No argument can undermine its truth.
No critic can lessen its authenticity.
No denier can weaken its foundation.
No mocker can remove its penetrating insight.
No philosophy can replace its transforming light.
 
The rebellious fight it,
The stubborn refuse it,
The disobedient deny it,
The indifferent ignore it,
The lazy neglect it,
The foolish despise it,
The traitor renounces it,
The deceiver wrongly represents it.
 
The hungry eat it,
The obedient follow it,
The weary rest in it,
The humble surrender to it,
The devout embrace it,
The downcasts are uplifted by it,
The sick are revived by it,
The wise build their lives upon it.
 
How sweet are Your words to my taste, Sweeter than honey to my mouth! I have restrained my feet from every evil way,That I may keep Your word. Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.
(Psalm 119:103, Psalm 119:101, Psalm 119:105 AMP)
