And I will give to you and to your seed after you the land of your sojourning, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God. Genesis 17:8
The Word of God in its rhema aspect is very subjective and personal. God indeed speaks. To an objective legal theologian it may be "out of context?," however to whom God indeed has spoken it is very real, very very real, the Spirit anoints and make it very living. Such, is what happened today as I read this verse. Personally it was very vivid to me on what angle and for what purpose He spoke such a rhema Word. Praise be to Him! What He has spoken is already fulfilled! The practical execution or application is present continuous.
Sovereignly, this happened just after the Winter Training on Psalms (2) on Psalms 119 which is fully focused on the Word. O how I treasure the Word! To the living is very lively, to the hungry and thirsty soul its very satisfying. And I fully agree with brother Abraham Lincoln when he said "the Bible is the best gift God has given to man." Hallelujah for the Holy Bible, the very Word and the very breath and the very speaking of God!
