Jesus said, "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at
all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life" (John
6:63, ESV).
Consider the part that says, "The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life."
His words are "spirit and life." They are not just ordinary words that we, human beings, speak.
His words are words of the Living God!
Those words are the words we read in Genesis, "Let there be..." and physical things appeared out of nothing.

God declares:
"For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it" (Isaiah 55:10-11).
His words will surely accomplish the purpose that they are sent for. When Jesus called for Lazarus, "Lazarus, come out," he came out (John 11:43-44) though he was already dead for four days!
Now, during our time, what's the purpose why we have His words?
