WORDS CARRY POWER!
Pleasant words are sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. Proverbs 16:24
I was amazed the day I read that a average person speaks 50,000 words daily. What is more disturbing is that we don't need more than 5 or 10 percent of that number daily. The Bible says a lot of things about the spoken word. The word you speak is a living organism. It is a seed, and when you plant it through your mouth, it brings forth after its kind. This is why we should first think before we say anything. Proverb 18:21 says death and life are in the power of the tongue. God commanded light to come out of darkness Genesis 1:3;2 Cor:4:6. And we are made in His image. We can bring something into being through spoken word. After the 13 spies returned from spying the land of Canaan, 10 of them told Moses, "Impossible! We can't make it" the spies said they which they wish they had died in Egypt, or even here in the wilderness! They turned
themselves into grasshoppers! God said, Okay just as you have said, so shall it happen to you. You will all die in the wilderness Number 14:28-35. And we know that was exactly what happened.your words can travel farther than you can imagine and carry out whatever you want it to accomplish. The centurion understood this. He told Jesus, Speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed Matthew 8:8 Do you want to live long and enjoy the good things of life? Learn to speak healthy, life- giving words to yourself, your situation and to others. The law of sowing and reaping says that you will reap exactly what you sow, it cannot be otherwise.
