The Liberating Power Of The Word Of Truth!

Session 2

August 3, 2025

Review: The Living Word; exact expression of God

Jesus’ view of the Scriptures (John 17:17)

The Apostles witness re the Scriptures (Philippians 2:16; 1 John 1:1;

2 Timothy 3:15, 16)

The Word: Carrier of Life! (John 6:63; Hebrews 4:12)

The Truth that sets Free!

John 8:31, 32: Abide: remain; continue; live in

Set you free (internally)

From deception; (“I can fix; I can win vs. you; I can make you see!”)

From fear (2 Timothy 1:7); shame (Hebrews 10:17); anger/bitterness (Mark 11:25,26)

If you won’t forgive, you will never feel totally clean, free; no ongoing excitement about your future (stuck in past)

Can’t really know the Forgiver and refuse to forgive!

The key to being productive (John 15:7,8)

The power and authority of the Word in overwhelming circumstances!

(Joshua 1)

✸ I release__________________ to You, Lord! They are in Your hands. I will stop trying to “make them pay!”

✸✸ I can’t be defeated if I won’t be deceived!

✸✸✸ Abiding requires acknowledging dependency, submission to source, remaining fruitful (including pruning)
