DAY 3 OF 3

Sharper Than Any Two-Edged Sword.

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews‬ ‭4:12‬ ‭KJV‬‬

For the Word of God is His Counsel. His Counsel is quick, powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. Surrender to His Word and you’ll be led by His Counsel. If you want to know God’s Will — seek His Word. His Word is sharper and more powerful than man’s counsel. God-based counsel pierces and divides. God’s Word sharpens and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 

Hebrews‬ ‭4:12‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ declares, “For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.” God’s counsel penetrates to the very heart of man. His Word exposes, sifts, and analyzes the heart; and judges the very thoughts and purposes of the heart. Let His Word guide the basis of your counsel. 

Hebrews‬ ‭4:12‬ ‭NLT‬‬ declares, “For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires.” God’s Word is not stagnant. His Word is alive, active, and powerful. Hebrews‬ ‭4:12-13‬ ‭MSG‬‬ proclaims, “God means what he says. What he says goes. His powerful Word is sharp as a surgeon’s scalpel, cutting through everything, whether doubt or defense, laying us open to listen and obey. Nothing and no one is impervious to God’s Word. We can’t get away from it—no matter what.”

If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, or if you have fallen away from Him, simply say this prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, in the Name of Jesus, I repent of my sin. I turn to You. Father, I receive Your Son, Jesus Christ, as my Lord and Savior. I believe that Jesus Christ died and rose just for me. 

I believe that His Blood washes me and cleanses me from all unrighteousness. Father, in You, I am set free. Father, through the Blood of your Son, Jesus Christ my past is history and my future is bright. 

Father, In You, I am made new. Father, in You, I am complete. Father, in You, I am made whole. Father, in You, I am restored. Father, I surrender every area of my life to You now and forever. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
