Hey guys, I felt today's topic should be centered around the words we say. We use possibly, millions of words in any given day depending on your amount of discourse with others, work, meetings you run, speeches we give, etc. But with all the words that are coming out of our mouths... are we really saying anything? The true WORD (Bible) said, "...The words that I speak to you, they are spirit, and they are life." Jhn 6:63. So you know where I'm going right? If these are the words of Christ, and If Christ be in US, Why are we not speaking the same things?
With the power of words, God formed life from nothingness. He spoke and made ALL! His very words are LIFE! Literally! Often times, we people of God, fall short of the responsibility of our tongues. With great power, one should desire wisdom and discernment; just because we aren't being careful with the things we say, does not mean the power of life and death has left our mouths! After all, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." Prov 18:21. Many people are elevated into their purposes or prevented from reaching their potential, all because of words that were spoken over their lives. Many people leaned on the words of encouragement one has offered; them remembering those words help them through a time of discouragement. Conversely, when faced with a challenge, one accounts for the disappointing words spoken to them and then they fail to reach the attainable goal due to remembering what someone said over them; allowing those words to govern their performance, attainment, and esteem level.
I see a false report the enemy has mass produced for the Children of God. A report of failure, "You are just like your parents, you will never be nothing, you can never move on from what happened", and the sad thing is, we should be trusting in the Truth (God's word and His spirit) as oppose to lies the enemy infringes upon God's people. How would you ever know if the thing spoken over your life is a lie or not if you are not familiar with God's truth?! That's why we must "Study to shew theyself approved; a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." II Tim 2:15. You can never know what you're not until you know who you are! You are more than a conqueror! You are a friend of God! You are Loved by the God of ALL Love! You are so many things to God, but if you don't hear and believe his words, then anyone can tell you anything and you will once again believe in a lie. Promises are NOT made to be broken! "All the promises of God in him are yea, and in him amen, unto the glory of God by us." 2 Cor 1:20. God's word will last forever and his promises also. He said never to leave or forsake us, so don't allow the enemy words tell you you're in this by yourself.
In closing, we saints of God must be very careful what we say to one another! The word of God says "But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart; and they defile the man."Matt 15:18. You were not just talking out the side of your neck, and no, you did mean what you said, because it was in your heart! There are no take backs with the words you say, that have already been released into the atmosphere. To resolve the words of death you spoke, you must speak again life! Reconcile, forgive, confess your faults one to another. There is healing in your words! Be careful with what you say, the word of God says, "And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business..." 1 Thes 4:11. We have to learn that just because we have the ability to speak, does not mean we ought to speak. "...I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me." Psa 39:1. If we allow God to control our tongue, we will be apt to speak life instead of death, restore, and not destroy, reconcile, and not divide, and encourage, and not discourage. We must allow God control over our most unruly member and bring it under subjection. Make the decision today to let God into your hearts; if there is a heart change I guarantee you will have something new to talk about.
Be Blessed...
"If you're living like there's no God...You better be right"

Wow. My Brother, this is speaking to me! We must constantly monitor the things on our heart, and to try them of whether or not they are of God!!
ReplyDeleteLet the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (Psalms 19:14)
We have no excuse for letting our flesh getting the best of us, since Christ dwells in us. We must continue to sow into Jesus so that the enemy will have no entry into our heart!!!!
This is POWERFUL
Truly Bro! Yea, words are everything. Thats why we really must be careful in what we choose to speak! God said it will even hudge every idle word (talking out the side of your neck so to speak) that we speak. By the way man, sorry I wasn't able to make it to the TNT meeting. I stayed after for Choir a little too long. I am positive you did an freat job though!
ReplyDeleteVery true. We all need to start speaking out positive things in our lives. Why is it so easy to confess the negative but a real challenge to speak faith statements for ourselves? And even when we do we say it in an uncertain voice. Time to put a lil bass in that voice if we mean it!!!
