Logos – The Living Word

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”—John 1:1

The Word of God is not just speech, not just sound released into the air.It is far greater—eternal, living, powerful.

In Greek, the word is Logos—meaning not only “word,” but also “thought,” “reason,” “truth,” “order,” “wisdom,” “purpose,” and “law.”

Logos is the mind of God revealed.It is Christ Himself—the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.By Him, all things were made.And nothing exists apart from Him.

Think of it: the air we breathe, the laws of nature, the beauty of creation—all came forth from the Word of God.The entire universe is built on the framework of His voice—His design—His will.

That is why the Bible says:

“The Word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword.It penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow;it judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart.”—Hebrews 4:12

The Word is a sword.It cuts deep, not to destroy, but to reveal—to purify—to heal.

It is through the Word that God will separate what is holy from what is false,what is lasting from what will be burned away.

Because make no mistake—God is jealous for what is His.He desires that when the appointed time ends, many would be found standing with Him—refined, made holy, and full of glory.

So what does He do?

He tests us.He refines us.He brings fire to our lives—not to destroy us, but to purify us,as a refiner purifies gold.

Jesus said:

“I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, so that you may become rich;and white garments so that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed;and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.”—Revelation 3:18

Words have power.Words can save—and words can kill.They are not neutral.They carry spiritual voltage—like energy—and every soul receives them differently.

Some need high voltage, strong correction, deep conviction.Others need a gentler current—just enough to stir, to awaken, to bring clarity.

Jesus said:

“I came to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is completed!”—Luke 12:49–50

Peter echoed this truth:

“Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial which is to try you,as though some strange thing happened to you.”—1 Peter 4:12

The fire is not to destroy you.It is to refine you—to burn away the excess, and reveal what is precious.

Gold, purified by fire, is the kind that pleases God.So it is with His Word, His sword, and His fire—they are His tools to prepare us for eternity.

Friend, the Logos is not just information. It is transformation.The Word is Christ.He speaks.He judges.He saves.

And He’s speaking still—Are you listening?

Amen.
