My Word is Lasting And Sturdy Since It Was Spoken. The word Blessing actually consists of two syllables, namely bene (good, noble) and dicere (words, or words). Luke, 21:29-33

The word blessing comes from the Latin word benedict.  This word actually consists of two syllables, namely bene (good, noble) and dicere (words, or words).  Thus benedict (blessing) means good words or words.  One who blesses means to say kind words, noble words.

 Words can bring blessings to others or they can be curses.  Depends on what comes out of the mouth, good or bad.

 If we had to choose, I'm sure we would choose to speak well.  We will be happy to hear people say good words from others, so other people will certainly prefer to hear good words from us, not swear words or words of reproach.

 Jesus reminds us that the heavens and the earth will pass away but His words will not pass away.  We believe and believe that the words of Jesus are living words, words that lead us to salvation.  His words are words that bring us to the blessing of goodness and of course, saving goodness.

 Facing the end of time, no one knows when the time will be, so Jesus invites us to have a firm guide and grip, namely His own word.  The words of Jesus we find mainly in the Scriptures.

 My question is, how close are we to the Bible?  Knowing the words of Jesus presupposes that we often read the Scriptures.  How can we possibly understand His word if we have never come into contact with the Scriptures?

 Heaven and earth will pass away, the Scriptures will pass away but the word in them will never pass away.  The love of Jesus is a guarantee and proof.  His word is eternal, still firmly in effect just as it was since it was first spoken.

 Jesus is now invisible, but His Word lives and works in those of us who desire and believe in Him.  Therefore, blessed are those who listen to the word of God and are diligent in carrying it out.
