God's Word is so powerful that everything created was spoken into existence. Sadly, many Christians don't experience the power that God's Word possesses – the power to save, to change lives, to give reason and purpose for living, and to give confidence and security in our lives.

Do you want to experience the power of God's Word? Here are three tips for you.

1. Read it

This one's a no-brainer, brothers and sisters. If we want to experience the power of God's Word, we should at least read it. Many Christians who live defeated lives are likely those who have dusty Bibles in their homes, and Bible apps that are rarely, if ever, used.

In the book of Revelation chapter 1, John the beloved states, "Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near" (verse 3). Apparently, even just hearing the Word of God or reading it makes us blessed.

Read the Word of God. It's the first step to experiencing it's power.

2. Believe it

We all need to believe what is written in the Word of God if we are to experience it's awesome power. Our salvation is found in this principle: believe. Romans 10:9 tell us "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Brothers and sisters, we should all believe.

Faith, the evidence of things unseen, grows as we hear the message from the Word of God (see Hebrews 11:1; Romans 10:17). When we hear the message, understand it and believe it, our faith grows. Our faith, which has grown by abiding in God's Word, enables us to ask and receive. The Lord Jesus spoke of this in Mark 11:22-24.

"So Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them."

3. Obey it

Reading and believing is not enough if we want to experience the power of the Word of God. We should obey it. James 1:22-25 tells us:

"But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does."
