Rom 10:8So what exactly was Moses saying?
The word that saves is right here, as near as the tongue in your mouth,
as close as the heart in your chest.(Msg)
Rom 10:8 But what does
it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your
heart" (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim)(Esv)
The word is the culmination of
Who God is. The destiny of the word (logos, the logic) of God is not in a book,
its not to be concealed in seminary books or commentaries. The final
destination of the word is in human life.
This is what the scriptures
reveal the logos, the logic of God, the final ultimate dream of God of co
dominating with man, this is what God meant in Genesis that man should subdue
and have dominion over the works of creation.
The integrity and the genius of
God has been preserved in Christ and revealed to humanity in the fullness of
time. Jesus comes and says if you see me , you have seen the father. Its such a
bold declaration confirming that the word became flesh and dwellt amongst men.
God’s thoughts are higher than
ours and his ways are higher than ours but prophet Isaiah reveals that as rain
falls down and waters the earth and drenches it so has the word come down and drenched
the whole earth.
Isaiah 55:11 so shall my
word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the
thing for which I sent it
Gal 4:4-5 but when
the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem
those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption
as sons.
Friends Jesus
has come. He has come to redeem us and to set us free. The word, Christ is near
us, he is in our mouth and in our hearts. The word is in our expression. John the Baptist came and preached.
Repent for the kingdom
of God is at hand. Its
time to change how we think about the word of God. The kingdom is at hand . the
proximity of the word of God cannot be explained in a better way than emmanuel
himself. He is God with us.
He doesn’t need
your performance for him to be with you. God swore never to hide his face from
his people anymore. Ez 39:22. The word Christ cannot be near more than he
already is.
In this
last days God has said. Listen to Jesus. He is the spoken word of God. In these
last days God has spoken to us through Christ. Heb 1:3. God has spoken to us Christ.
He is the ultimate reconciliation, bringing all things inn heaven and in earth
to a perfect synchrony and you know what? We exist in him. He is the
explanation of scripture. Didn’t Jesus say that the law and the prophets
testified to him? Luke 24:25-27.
He is what
the Lord is saying to you today, don’t look for a better spectacular expression
of scripture. Don’t create distance and delay. The word is in your expression
in your mouth and in your heart. Mmay jesus open your eyes to see him in the
scriptures. The rvelation of Christ is the revelation of the glory of God not
in the stratosphere but inside of us. He lives in you and you are the temples
of the living God. The tabernacles and a holy church.
