What is rhema?

     Well, according to my measly knowledge in Christianity .. rhema is the word of the season. A word that comes from God for that particular situation or season, and it might come in the form of encouragement/impression in the spirit man, accountability partners exhorting one another, a word that is released from a pastor or more mature Christian through prayer, or through the reading of His Word. The content, however, could vary from simple sentences, phrases, or most of the time from the Word of God. Which brings us to …

Logos

Logos is the universal Word of God. It is the scripture that God has given to us in the form of the Bible. It says in 2 Timothy 3:16..

All scripture is God-breathed..

So .. catch this. All logos can be rhema, but not all rhema can be logos. Get it? Here’s an example.

     Today, I woke up to a rhema of the logos. My alarm clock rang at 8am sharp, and I turned it off and slept for a little while more. Then I got up and suddenly, my head voice was going,”Call unto me .. and I will show you mighty things.” I let it repeat, and I could trace it to Jeremiah 33:3 in which I looked up and wrote in my journal.

Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. - Jeremiah 33:3

     As I spent time in the morning just reading His word, it came to me that the word that was released isn’t just .. for me to memorize or to be reminded of God’s telephone number [some call it that..] but rather, to be claimed and acted out in faith to the situation that I am in now. So while I prayed, I just thanked God for the rhema word of God and claimed it for my studies, especially for my project!

Just thought I’d share it with you today. Yes, you. Feedmeback!
