In 202 the word of God just like the blood of Jesus is powerful and it is still effective. What it takes to see the word of God work in our lives more is we must apply it to our lives daily. In order to apply his word we must know it and understand how to apply the word. God is faithful but, many think they deserve what he can;t give. He can not give to faithless selfish people. He can not give to those who walk according to their own ways and thoughts. God gives his truth and self to those who believe and are humble, meek and lowly in their daily walk in this life preparing for the next life with him.
