What Backs Up God's Word?
Imagine a lead singer without a backup,
What ensures God's promises and Words come to pass?
Since a king’s word is supreme, who can say to him, “What are you doing?” (Ecclesiastes 8:4 NIV)

Hey everybody, welcome once again to deep this audio Yes,
and this is episode 12 of deep things of his word.
So you're really thinking so don't want to level.
Good job. Now this is 12, so let's dive
into it. So to look at a very important
topic. But before we look at that
topic, we have a very special guest.
Wait, before I introduce you, there are little things of
victims I want to see about him. OK.
He is currently the ex officio of CNDENTHA doctor.
Excuse me? Depends the perspective looking
at this from. OK.
He's a worded man of God, and it's very humble too, because he
might not accept it in public. I came without further ado.
I'd like to welcome. OK, my name is Mohammed Nasir
Gandhi. Don't believe everything I said.
I was sweet. I actually don't know anything.
I, you know, it's really all right, that's good.
So I'm in Nasir gallery. We're very happy to have you.
So today we're looking at the very interesting topic.
What backs up God's word. So do you think God's word
backed up by something? You think there's a certain
degree of backing up that goes on need?
Do you think that when you speak the word, there's something that
needs to be activated for it to come alive?
Well, there's one we find out. We'll let our guest explain
everything to us. So, Muhammad Nasir Galli, tell
us what you have to say about this, everything you have to say
about this. Thank you.
All right, so thank you so much. It's a pleasure to be here to
discuss and to also learn from the feet of the master.
Also, at some point I was like, I'm nobody to be here.
You know, I I saw some wonderful teachings from many of us and I
was like God. I like to be like them.
So today we are going to look at the topic before us that what
box of ghosts would you know, and how can we encounter the
backed up word? So ball, before we begin this
talk, you know that there are some things that I want to, you
know, bring to our attention. They believe God is leading us
into this way. You know, one of the things that
comes to your mind when you hear the backed up word or when you
hear that something is being backed up, you know, is likely
the guarantee that is placed on something.
You know, the power that has been placed on something.
You know, popularly for most of us that have bought gadgets,
normally the gadget comes with a backing, a warranty that if this
thing does not work, return it to us and then we are going to
work on it. But deep into this, we are going
to see some things. I want us to understand the
concept of God, who he is, because we want to understand
the fact of word. We need to understand the word.
We want to understand where is it coming from, You know, how
does the person speaking, you know, affect the word?
And so that's one of the things that I want us to look at.
So first of all, God is a king. And when we say that God is a
king, the Bible highlighted him as, you know, as the King of
kings and also as the Lord of Lords.
You know, he says the heavens he has given to himself, and the
eight, he has given it to the sons of men.
So God is a king. He's the highest authority over
heaven at an old world. He rules over his Kingdom.
The heaven and the earth and old world are the things that he has
placed under his feet. His old binds over his Kingdom,
the people, the spirit and every single thing that lives in that
Kingdom because he is God, the words of God are lost because
the words of a king are also lost.
They are decreased, they are irrefutable and they must
achieve the purpose why they are sent.
So an understanding that God is God, there is nobody that puts
him into power and he owns the authority and every single power
in heaven and on earth should make us also understand, you
know what makes his words to be backed up and we are going to
look at that briefly. The second point is that we to
also understand God as a Lord, and we say that God is a Lord.
It means that he owns the whole world.
You know, He's a spirit. And it's very, very important
that we understand that. The Bible said in the book of
Psalms, the earth is the Lord and all its fullness, the world
and those who dwell therein. For he has founded it upon the
seas and established it upon the waters.
And so we said that God is Lord. It means that he is an honor.
A Lord means an honor, OK, He owns every single thing and how
did he acquire the earth is 1 because he created it and two,
his power over his establishment.
And so God is an honor. He own everything in heaven and
adds the people and all the spirits that live within this
realm. The next thing I want us to
understand is the Trinity of the word that if you check the book
of Genesis chapter 1 from verse one to three, you see that in
the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
The earth is void, was void and empty and the Spirit of God was
moving over the surface of the tip.
And God said the first mention of the Trinity was at the
beginning of the Bible. The Bible began with the
Trinity, so it says in the beginning God, which is God the
Father. And then the Spirit was moving
over the surface of the deep which shows us the Holy Spirit.
And then the next thing we could see is that God began to speak
and the word began to come into into the picture.
And so when we understand that they say God and then they say
Spirit and they say word, it's, you know, help us to understand
the power that comes with the word of God, that this word,
it's origin is from God. And you know before the word
even comes that this is Spirit, you know, an atmosphere, his
presence, his Spirit, the Holy Spirit, God, the Holy Spirit.
And later we are going to understand what the Holy Spirit
means, like why the Holy Spirit is very, very relevant for us to
understand the backed up word and everything.
And so we need to understand that, you know, Jesus is the
Word, the Word is the Spirit, and the Word is God.
And in the book of Genesis we saw this Trinity playing
together. And so for the world to find an
effect in a pressing, these three entities must be in
agreement the word, the Spirit and God.
The next thing we are going to look at sorry for this, you
know, little, little doctrines. The next thing we'll look at is
the Trinity of man. You know when God created man,
he created him in his own image and after his likeness.
And so God created man as his spirit.
All right, that has his soul, and that soul lives in a body.
Now understanding that man is a spirit because when God first
created man, he has not yet created the physical body yet
the Bible says, and let us make man in our own image and after
our likeness. And the first thing we know
about God is that he's worth his spirit.
And so man was also created to be a spirit.
And then next we saw in chapter 2 of Genesis, and God formed man
out of the dust, showing us where the body came into place.
And so for the Word of God to produce results in our lives,
these three entities of man must also be in agreement.
So if the spirits and the flesh are totally opposite direction,
the world will not produce any results.
So the world contains all the elements of God, the power and
authority and its sovereignty. Because, you know, starting with
the fact that God is a king, to show us the illustration, like
what it means for the words of a king to be powerful.
Many of us grew up in democracy and we have not understood the
concept of what it means, the concept of the Kingdom and what
it means and what the word of a king really, really means.
In democracy, a president can say something and the judiciary
and the legislature can come up and say something else, you
know, counteract the word. But in a Kingdom, whatsoever the
king says, the word of a king had decreased.
You know, when the ministers came to Darius, they said the
decrease of their irrefutable, they cannot be changed.
Do you understand? So understanding the Word of God
and understanding God in this perspective would change our
narrative of how we see the Word of God and be able to maximize
its power. Now the Word of God is spirit
because what we have to understanding that God himself
is a spirit, the Word is a spirit and his spirit, God the
Holy Spirit is also a spirit and that Jesus is the world and that
all things we created through the world, which is Jesus all
right. So the world as the spirit, we
are going to look at our engagement with the world, all
right. So our engagement with the world
is basically through the spirit, all right.
So this is how God communicates with us.
God is a spirit and he created us as a spirit beings because
for us to be able to understand a spirit and what a spirit is
saying that person, that entity we have to become.
We have to, you know, be spirit and God design us to be so.
And so God relates to us. He speak his words, which is
spirit and the whole the Holy Spirit carries the word of God
and communicate it with our spirit.
So it is our spirit that is in contact with this word.
Amen. And then the second one is that
we also have contact with the written word.
You know, the written word also is the written word is spirit is
it is encap the spirit of the word is encapsulated by the
written words. And so most of the time, I think
there was a podcast here that described the encrypted word and
I was so blessed from it. When we engage with the with the
written word, we must press harder to ensure that we have
encountered the spirit of the word because it is only spirit
that, you know, make contact with the Spirit.
And the first entity in US that should encounter the word is the
Holy Spirit. And then the Holy Spirit will
begin to find execution with the agreement of our mind and also
our body. All right, so the Bible said,
who also has made us sufficient as ministers of the New
Covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit.
For the letter kills, but the Spirit giveth life.
So our engagement with the world is through the Spirit, and it is
through our Spirit with the Spirit of the world.
Then the next one is that the Holy Spirit is an indispensable
component of this process. So when we understand Him as the
messenger, as the decoder, as the interpreter and the executor
of the world, it makes more meaning and also makes more
effect. And also he comes with power,
which is able to cause a change, transform and cause things to
happen in our lives. You know, he's a searcher of the
hidden things of God. I wanted to say deep things of
God. OK, so we have also understand
that the word of God is encrypted, you know, and that's
why Ephesians chapter one verse 17 is a cry that God will give
us the spirit of wisdom and revelation, the Spirit.
Do you understand? Take note of that very, very
well. So our engagement with the word
is true, the Spirit, and it is only the spirit that can break
open the content of the word for us.
So there are some key things that I will just mention and go
in the passing before we now look at what backs of God's
world first. We first created our spirit and
then put inside a body. So it is our spirit that
communicates with God. The flesh has no business here.
The Bible said it profits nothing.
Three, God made us ministers of the spirit.
That means we engage with the world through the spirit.
And then four, we communicate with God through our spirits
with his spirits, and then the spirits with God.
Then five, only spirit can understand spiritual things.
Six, only the Holy Spirit can decode spiritual information
sent from God to our spirit. And seven, spiritual
understanding leads to transformation of the mind and
the heart. And then 8 the heart governs our
action, and if it is transformed by the Spirit, it begins to
produce life. And that's when we come to
understand that the world in which the Spirit became flesh
and begins to dwell among us. Do you understand?
So that's where we understand, you know, the efficacy and how
the world can begin to produce results in our lives.
So what parks of God's world, which is the original topic that
was given to us and we have used most of our time talking about,
you know, the first part of it. You know this this is a podcast.
I wish it was a teaching will have you know, gone deeper, have
a proper understanding of who God is and you know the power of
his word. Then we can now be able to
understand what backs up Gods word.
And there are three things that I wrote here to are from God,
are on the side of God. And then the third one is on our
side. And I pray that God will give us
understanding our revelation into his word as we look at it.
So the first thing that I will talk about about the backing,
you know, of God's word is that God backs his word with power.
You know, power is the ability, you know, to do things, the
ability of the word of God to do things.
And second, God also backs his Word with his integrity, his
reputation, and His name. And so you see that these two
are coming from God's end. But there is a third one, which
is one of the things that I really want us to pay much
attention because the problem is not from God.
The problem is a man problem. The problem is from us.
Most of the time the word of God carries on it all these
characteristics, the power, you know, the integrity of God, the
reputation of God and his name. You know the the Bible said that
I honor my word more than my name will see that verse.
But why is it that this word does not produce effect?
It's also a question which I would like to answer later in
this podcast. But you know, the problem has
always been a man problem and not a God problem.
So whenever you see a challenge, whenever I see a problem, most
of the time, all the time the problem is a man problem.
It is not a God problem because if really spiritual things are
engaged with this ritual protocol of engagement, result
is supposed to be the outcome. And so let's look at some of
these scriptures that betrays, you know, the power, integrity
and reputation and the name of God.
The first one is Ecclesiastes chapter 8, verse 4.
It says where the word of a king is this power and who may say to
him, what are you doing? You see, that's one of the
reasons I I spent a little time, you know, highlighting God as a
God and as a Lord, you know, and also as a king from this
Ecclesiastes chapter 8 verse 4. It shows that the word of God is
powerful because where the word of a king is his power.
The next one is Joshua chapter 21 verse 45.
He says not a word fail it of any good things which the Lord
has spoken to the House of Israel.
All came to pass. That shows that the word never
fails. You see that the problem is
always the man problem and not the God problem.
And so if there's anything I want us to take from this
podcast is, you know, going back to God with sincerity and
repentance and, you know, look up to him for the transformation
of our heart so that the Word of God will begin to find results
in our lives. The next Scripture is Isaiah 55,
verse 11. It's a social my word be that
God's fought from my mouth. He shall not return to me.
For you see, when God is speaking like this, when you
have an understanding of him as a king, that when he speaks, his
word is irrevocable. It must produce results shows
that the word of God never fails.
Then the next scripture I want us to read is some wanted it
verse 2. I will worship towards your holy
temple and praise your name for your loving kindness and your
truths. For you have magnified your word
above, above all, your name. Why did he say all in me?
Whatsoever name you know about God, His word is magnified more
than that's name. So if you know God as protector,
as healer, as sovereign, omnipotent, omniscience, the God
himself, you know, for example, I say I regard my word more than
my name. I regard more than my
reputation. So God has placed his reputation
on his word. So the sovereignty of the word
of God, he regards it more than his name and another scripture
to buttress this point is Hebrews chapter one verse three,
who being the brightness of his glory and the express image of
his pressing and upholding all things by the words of his power
when he had by himself. Pojo has since sat down at the
right hand of the majesty on high.
So every single thing, the sovereignty of the world means
that every single thing is upheld by the world.
So the power of God's word, there are many things, because I
believe most of us the most, the major thing we understand about
the power of God's Word is its ability to, you know, to make
things happen. You know some of us who quote
Genesis chapter 1, how God created the earth by the power
of his words. Yes, that's one of the functions
of the Word of God. You know, the backing that
power, one of the power of God's word is the power to transform.
When man fell, all right, we acquired a different nature
apart from the nature of God. So we acquired a fallen nature.
And so when God, you know, sent his Son, Jesus Christ, he
restored our spirit and restored that relationship with him.
But our our hearts, you know which is desperately wicked
needs a lot of transformation in order to be able to confirm to
the image of his Son of Jesus. And so the journey into
Christianity is to journey into becoming like Jesus having the
mind of Jesus. The second thing is the power to
change lives when which is just a single encounter with the word
of God. It can transform an armed robber
into a St. You can look at second Timothy
chapter 3 verse 17. The word of God is God's breath
and it is profitable for doctrine, for the proof for
correction and instruction in righteousness that the man of
God may be complete, totally equipped for every good work.
So the power to change lives and equip us for Kingdom service.
The third one is the power to direct the Bible say your word
is a lamb to my feet and a light to my part.
So the word of God has the ability to direct and in
Proverbs chapter 3 verse 5, say trust in the Lord with all your
heart, with all your heart and lean not on your own
understanding all your ways. Acknowledge him and he will make
your part straight. How through the world.
Of God and the next thing is, which is the 4th is the power to
reveal God. So when we look at the word, it
gives us the revelation about God.
The fifth one, the power of God's word is to make us
fruitful. We can see that in Psalm one
verse 3 to 5. It said that passage shall be
like a tree planted by the streams of water that bears his
fruit in season. God has created all things the
Bible said and all things we created for thy pleasure, for
his pleasure. And so when we understand our
lives into this direction, we'll focus more on God.
The way in Bible said, seek ye first the Kingdom of God and its
righteousness and all these other things.
When we have an understanding of the Kingdom and the king and the
responsibility of the king, we'll find out that there are so
many prayer points that are not relevant.
Do you understand? So the journey is towards
understanding the Kingdom, understanding the king and being
right with the God is not created for us.
He was not created Points number six, the power to revive.
You can look at some 80 verse 18 and the the last one is the
power to cost things to help. This is the last all right, you
know, healing deliverance. The Bible say he sent his word
and it's he let them, you know and deliver them from their
destruction. So here we can see that the Word
of God, you know, causes healing, you know, it causes
deliverance and so on and so forth, and many other benefits
to us that you can attach to it, and it is scattered throughout
the Scripture. Wow, thank you so much Sir.
That was this is really deep. Do you know every single thing
he said cuts across all the episodes of deep things of his
word. See if you have not listened to
episode 1 to 11 all these things will be hearing be like it will
sound new to you. You see this thing he did he but
dressed heavily on the importance of God's Word and he
even showed us broke it down a. Stain with scripture.
Line upon line, precepts upon percepts.
Because of our time, we are going to be having a Part 2
series for this, so you don't want to miss it.
OK, so till then, see you later. Bye.
