Alive and Powerful[Heb Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.Thoughts: The Greek word enthymesis (en-thoo’-may-sis), used here at Heb. Intents: This Greek word ennoia (en’-noy-ah) is from en, a preposition meaning (fixed) position (in place, time or state), and the word nous (nooce) meaning mind or understanding. So, its what you have “in-mind” or your “state of mind.”God’s Word is the only thing sharp enough to separate the soul and spirit. The soul and spirit make up the heart, and they function as one. We can distinguish between them only by an in-depth study of the Scriptures.The context here is laboring to enter into God’s rest (Hebrews The whole subject of this chapter has been the rest of God. As stated in Hebrews My Proclamation:The Word of God is alive and powerful in me. I am determined to think about the Scriptures. I will walk in the Word.God bless you my friend,ā Dwight Hammond
