The BLESSED written WORD: Empowered by The EMPOWERING Holy Spirit of PROMISE!
“BLESSED [EMPOWERED] is he that READETH, and they that HEAR the WORDS of this PROPHECY, and keep those things which are WRITTEN therein: for the time is at hand” Revelation 1:3/Emphasis Mine.
The WORD of God is BLESSED and every written and spoken WORD is life and living [life-giving, life-saving, life-assuring, life-ensuring and more] – and can be reached, loved, lived, depended on and more importantly, God personified in Christ Jesus [John 6:63; Hebrews 4:12-13; John 1:1-5, 14]. However, for the purpose of context, you have to know that it is not God who is always speaking in the BLESSED written word of The Holy BIBLE [BLESSED INFORMATION BRINGING LIFE ETERNAL]; but whatever was written in all is authentic and accurately recorded and documented by the empowering of the Holy Spirit upon and through them by which the BLESSED written WORD was assigned to be written – and it’ is irrespective of time, place, generation or dispensation in all matters of life and godly living. And it’s to give hope and assurance in the will and counsel of grace toward God in Christ Jesus. Amen.
“We have also a more SURE WORD of PROPHECY; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 knowing this first, that NO PROPHECY of the scripture is of any PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. 21 For the PROPHECY came not in old time by the WILL of man: but HOLY men of God SPAKE as they were moved by the Holy Ghost” 2 Peter 1:29-21.
“For whatsoever things were written aforetime were WRITTEN for our learning, that we through PATIENCE and COMFORT of the SCRIPTURES might have hope. 5 Now the God of PATIENCE and CONSOLATION grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: 6 that ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ” Romans 15:4-6.
“But CONTINUE thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, KNOWING of whom thou hast learned them; 15 and that from a child thou hast known the HOLY SCRIPTURES, which are ABLE to make thee WISE unto SALVATION through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for DOCTRINE, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION, for INSTRUCTION in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT, thoroughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.
And the Holy Writ of God is written by inspiration, revelation and empowerment of God’s enabling – which is only possible by the Holy Spirit of promise, who is of the triune [trinity] God, who oversees the written writ through time, place, generation and dispensation. [1 John 5:7; 2 Peter 1:19-21; 2 Timothy 3:15-17]. And just as in creation, His [Holy Spirit] presence brought about the excellent, beautiful and wonderful creation that all mankind can today and always behold as they make a living worth with gratitude to creator even without knowing the fulness of how God’s wonderful work in creation came to be and for them to be able to comprehend it all in manifestation [Genesis 1:1-4; Revelation 4:11; Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11; Psalms 139:10-18].
“By faith [that is, with an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God] we understand that the worlds (universe, ages) were FRAMED and CREATED [formed, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose] by the WORD of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible” Hebrews 11:3/AMP.
“For THE WORD of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And not a creature exists that is CONCEALED from His sight, but all things are open and EXPOSED, and REVEALED to the eyes of Him with whom we have to give account” Hebrews 4:12-13/AMP.
And the Holy writ is the only written document that addresses matters of the past, present and future among all written books in all humanity – and it is not subjected to time, place, generation or dispensation; and it is not and cannot be legislated in its dealings with all of mankind – irrespective; and the author of the Holy writ is the only and ever-present personality as author at the point of reading, to give you all the answers to context and purpose for what is written. And it’s profitable for all instruction, answering to the quests of all toward God and Christ Jesus for the human good and goodness. [Acts 20:20-21].
And those who spoke to the writing of the written word, were all inspired by the Holy Spirit. Thus indicating that the BLESSED word is an all-time empowering WORD because it was made possible by the empowering Holy Spirit. The BLESSED written WORD is a seed that answers all of humanity’s questions as one takes pleasure to be a DOER of the BLESSED WORD in order to be BLESSED indeed, rather than to be only a mere HEARER OF THE WORD.
“But be ye DOERS OF THE WORD, and NOT HEARERS ONLY, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any BE A HEARER OF THE WORD, and NOT A DOER, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be BLESSED in his deed” 1 James 1:22-25.
Therefore, if you want to ensure, enact and authenticate the assured BLESSEDNESS of God by the BLESSED word of God in resolving past, present and future enquiry of doing life and living godly, your pure access is in your fellowship with the BLESSED [EMPOWERING] Holy Spirit that answers to all – irrespective [and without prejudice, sentiments or dissimulation] of God’s promises to you and me for all humanity. [Galatians 3:13-14].
It is dangerous and disastrous for any to access and bring out answers from the Holy Writ, in order to give a purposeful, meaningful and fulfilling effect, without the presence of the author and interpreter and translator of His WORD while He is ever ready and available to honour it. That is why we are instructed to this day and always not to be deceived by any who refuse to be examined as whether their interpretation or translation of the Holy writ has the Holy Spirit’s bearing in order to safeguard against distortion, dilution and adulteration of such context in question. [1 Corinthians 14:26-33; Acts 17:10-12; Philippians 1:15-18].
It is my earnest PRAYER that you get engrossed with the written word by the Holy Spirit, the ever-present author of the written word, so that you receive the needed inspiration, revelation and empowerment to make you function and become of God in Christ Jesus. Amen.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“We have also a more SURE WORD of PROPHECY; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 knowing this first, that NO PROPHECY of the scripture is of any PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. 21 For the PROPHECY came not in old time by the WILL of man: but HOLY men of God SPAKE as they were moved by the Holy Ghost” 2 Peter 1:29-21.
“And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All scripture is given by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:15-17.
“For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope” Romans 15:4.
SUMMARY:
This is a doctrinal exposition on the nature, authority, and operation of the Written Word of God through the Holy Spirit. The text is structured in 4 movements:
- Authority and Nature of Scripture
Scripture is declared “The Empowered Word” — authoritative, living, and operative. It is described as:
- Living and active, sharper than a two-edged sword [Heb 4:12]
- God-breathed, profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, instruction [2 Tim 3:16]
- Without error and without private interpretation [2 Pet 1:20-21]
The Word is “without error and without private interpretation” [2 Pet 1:20-21]. The message emphasises that while not every verse is a direct quote of God speaking, every verse is God-breathed and without error because the Holy Spirit superintended (oversees) its writing [2 Pet 1:21]. It is timeless — transcending time, culture, and dispensation — and remains the only book that speaks authoritatively into past, present, and future [2 Tim 3:16].
- The Holy Spirit as Author and Operator
The Holy Spirit is “The Empowered One” behind Scripture. He is:
Author – He inspired holy men to write [2 Pet 1:21]
Interpreter – He alone explains what He inspired [1 Cor 2:13]
Operator – He makes the Word alive and effective in the believer [Heb 4:12]
The message warns that handling Scripture without the Holy Spirit leads to error, manipulation, and spiritual damage [2 Cor 3:6]. The “blessedness” of Scripture is accessed only through the Spirit’s illumination [John 6:63].
- Purpose and Application of the Word
The Word is functional, not just informational. Its purpose is:
Revelation – Makes God and His will known [John 17:17]
Regeneration – Produces new birth and transformation [1 Pet 1:23]
Instruction – Equips the believer for every good work [2 Tim 3:17]
Protection – Guards against error and deception [Eph 6:17]
Believers are commanded to be “doers of the Word, not hearers only” [James 1:22]. The Word is described as seed [Luke 8:11] that produces blessedness when acted upon. Without application, knowledge puffs up [1 Cor 8:1].
- Access and Warning
Access to the power of Scripture is through intimacy with the Holy Spirit, not academic study alone [John 16:13]. The message gives a strong warning: manipulating Scripture for personal agendas is dangerous and will be judged [Rev 22:18-19]. It calls believers to “rightly divide” the Word [2 Tim 2:15] under the Spirit’s guidance, and to test every teaching against Scripture [Acts 17:11].
Closing Charge:
The message ends with a benediction — a prayer that believers would be immersed in the Word by the Spirit until Christ is formed in them [Gal 4:19]. The Word is not just doctrine; it is Christ Himself revealed [John 1:1, 14].
Key Scriptures Used: Hebrews 4:12, 2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:20-21, John 6:63, James 1:22, Acts 17:11.
