Isaiah 55:10 The Lord says; " just as from the heavens the rain and snow come down And do not return there till they have watered the earth, making it fertile and fruitful, Giving seed to him who sows and bread to him who eats,
So shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth; It shall not return to me void, but shall do my will, achieving the end for which I sent it."

Christ says He came to do the will of the Father who sent Him but also said He was sent to proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God. So one can conclude that from Isaiah 55:10-11 and what Jesus said about why He was sent, that to proclaim the word of God, is to do Gods will.

Remember, Gods kingdom will come when His will is done on earth as it is in heaven.

The kingdom of God is at hand.

"The Lord says ; "I'm going to make right a measuring line and justice a level."

But if the Word declared was, "I came not to condemn the world, but to save it." Will that word return the God void?
