Rhema Word

Rhema Word

Garden Valley Church

There are two important Greek words used in the Bible. One is Logos and the other is Rhema. The definition of Logos in Greek means the written word, much like the written word in the Bible. The definition of Rhema in Greek means a specific, personal word from the Lord. God is constantly speaking to us! Sometimes He uses His written word (logos) in situations, and other times He uses a word that is personal and specific that can be applied in a “now” moment (rhema). Both are powerful and both speak volumes in helping us navigate life. The vision of this project was to take the written word and create prophetic, rhema word declarations to wash over each individual as they listen. There is power in listening to the spoken word. It is sharper than any two-edged sword and it is a treasured tool for all of God’s children to use. Our prayer is that when you listen to His word and these declarations, that His word and His truth would become a powerful reality that you can stand firm on throughout life!

  • 5 - I Am Free

    I am free

    When you welcomed Jesus into your heart, He was filled with joy to live within you. And where the Spirit of the Lord lives, there is freedom! Therefore, you live in freedom beloved! The Son has set you free. You do not live in bondage or slavery, you live in complete freedom with Him! 

    “I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith..”
    Ephesians 3:16-17

    “Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
    2 Corinthians 3:17

    “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”
    John 8:36

    “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”
    Galatians 5:1

    The Father sees you walking in freedom and is absolutely thrilled. Christ does not see your old self, for it has been crucified with Him on the cross. Therefore, you now get to live in the fullness of the life He has given you. You can stand firm, with confidence and boldness, knowing that you have been set free. The chains are broken, you are clean. You were created to walk in this new freedom He has given you.  

    “Could it be any clearer that our former identity is now and forever deprived of its power: For we were co-crucifed with him to dismantle the stronghold of sin within us, so that we would not continue to live one moment longer submitted to sin’s power. Obviously, a dead person is incapable of sinning. And if we were co-crucified with the Anointed One, we know that we will also share in the fullness of His life.”
    Romans 6:6-8

    “Beloved ones, God has called us to live a life of freedom…”
    Galatians 5:13

    “In Him and through faith in Him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.”
    Ephesians 3:12

    Christ has set you free, 100% free. You do not walk in shame, you do not walk in guilt, you child of God, walk in freedom! You are no longer burdened by your past mistakes or your past faults. Christ has made you new! He has done a new thing in you and it is called freedom. Child of God, you are FREE.
