89 Your word, Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens. 90 Your faithfulness continues through all generations; you established the earth, and it endures. 91 Your laws endure to this day, for all things serve you. 92 If your law had not been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction.

93 I will never forget your precepts, for by them you have preserved my life. 94 Save me, for I am yours; I have sought out your precepts. 95 The wicked are waiting to destroy me, but I will ponder your statutes. 96 Tall perfection I see a limit, but your commands are boundless.

1. The Word (Bible) is heaven sent Your word, Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens. The Word comes from God The Word is “settled” The Word is constant and continual The Pulpit

God's Word came down into... The Bible... That is preached to all... Through Living Hope

2. What is a “Word”? A Word represents the subject, Ie: If I say “elephant” You have an image of elephant in your mind The image is not the elephant It is an exact representation of the elephant

3. The Word is an embodiment Jn 1:1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it...

3. The Word is an embodiment Jn 1:9 ...The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—

Summary so far The law was settled in heaven When you have the word, you have the person behind the word (last week) Jesus was/is the word embodied Jesus was with God in the beginning Jesus was with God and Jesus was God All things hold together in Jesus

3. The Word is an embodiment Col 1: 15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

3. The Word is an embodiment Col 1: 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

Summary so far Jesus is the image of the invisible God Jesus is the head of the church All the fullness of God dwells in Jesus God reconciled everything to himself in the cross

Wrapping up Your word, Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens. Eternal; both forward and backward From the beginning; The word was there The Word was wrapped in a person The Word was Jesus The Cross/resurrection were planned The Word goes forward firmly God's Word is spreading

So What? God used Words We use a lot of words God spoke God spoke things into existence God's Words took on flesh and blood We use a lot of words Which are important? What do you speak into existence? What words stick in the minds of children? Which carry eternal consequences? Which are a source of eternal life?
