The Word is my Weapon of Warfare

The Lord spoke to me through Mrs. Ilene yesterday. He was telling me that I HAVE to get into His Word if I want to fight and emerge victorious. I will discover my identity in the Word, and the gates of Hell will shake when my eyes are opened. So, I've made this blog, and it is my desire to log everyday some of the scripture verses that I've read. God, please make it happen. Satan will try to get in my way, but who is he compared to You?
I want to get to know You more God and I want my questions to be answered. And through Mrs. Ilene, you told me that I will find those answers in Your Word, Amen!

Isaiah 55:8-11
8 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD.

9 "As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

10 As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,

11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.

Amen, praise God. I've been questioning God lately and trying to put logic behind this whole Christianity thing. But God is not logical. At least not by human standard. He knows more than I could ever know, so even though I'm confused and at times feel like I'm doing something that's beneath me, take heart that He knows what He's doing Janell. You don't need to know everything. God is omniscient. And He the only person who needs to know, 'cause He's the only One who can be trusted with all that knowledge. Imagine if humans had such power and knowledge? Hah!
About the versses 10 and 11, I find them very comforting. It gives me hope in the ministry of evangelism. When I tell people about Christ, it won't be for nothing. Through me, the Holy Spirit will saves souls and reconcile them with God. That is truly an honor. And very comforting.

Father, help me to trust in You and believe that You will honor your Word. Help me to let go of the need to know why, to let go of the desire to know the answer to everything. For You know better than I know and I can only trust and believe in You. Please give me the strength to do so. I pray this in the name of the Christ, Amen.
