You’re good! :)

Alright, I don't see it, but I'll try to answer anyway. :) I would say that "word" can reasonably refer to a few things. One would be the scriptures, God's Holy word. Another would be every word God ever spoke, many of which are not recorded in scriptures. Another could refer to the power of God's word, such as in:
Matt 8:16-17 : 16 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick. 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: "He took up our infirmities and carried our diseases."
Now, "Word" OTOH, I think refers exclusively to the person of Jesus Christ.
