The Word

The Word by Lawal Olajide

The word is an utterance from the mouth of God or man to fulfil a particular purpose. Word is the foundation of everything that happens on earth and even in heaven.

The Bible says in John 1:1-5 that, ‘In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. It was by him all things were made.

We also discovered that in Genesis 1:2-3, without the word of God, everything was shapeless, void and empty.
