Text to read. Hebrews 4.11-13
Source
This text is one of the most helpful in understanding the call of faith to "confess" the word of God, which resulted in a whole generation of Israelites dying in the desert and not coming to possess the inheritance that God I had reserved for them. In this context, the Bible says of itself: "the word of God is alive and effective". The term translated "word" here is the Greek word logos, which commonly indicates the expression of a complete idea and is used to refer to the sacred scriptures. Contrast with rhema, which usually refers to something said or spoken. This recommends that we distinguish between the entire Bible, and the promise or individual promises that the Holy Spirit can bring to our mind through the word of God. When faced with a situation of need, trial or difficulty, the promises of God can become a rhema; that is, a weapon of the Spirit, "the word of God" (Ephesians 6.17)
The authority that possesses this "word" is that it comes from the Bible - the word of God - the complete logo. Its immediate importance is that the Lord has "spoken" the word to the soul through his spirit, and awakens the faith, just as he did with Israel, when he pointed out his inheritance. The confession of faith receives the "words" of God (rhema) and stands firm on these promises.
However, the strength of the confession does not depend on the human will, but on the divine will, revealed in the totality of the scriptures: the holy Bible, the logos (the complete word) of which the rhema (the present "word of promises ") has been received. has been received
