Our Words Have Power

“From the fruit of their lips people are filled with good things,
    and the work of their hands brings them reward.“

God created the heavens and the earth and their contents with His words spoken through His mouth. “Let there be light,” (Genesis 1:3), so the light was made. “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” (Genesis 1:6), And it was so. Words are an important element in the process of creation of the universe. So all the words that come out of God’s mouth are powerful.

“Because we are created according to His image and likeness, then every word that comes out of our mouth contains power. Whatever we say will have an impact on our future. So let us be prepared to be incessantly reminded to be careful with our words. Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. “-James

Are we still reckless with our words? With words, we can build a good future, but can also destroy our own future. With words, we can strengthen, comfort, weaken, and also hurt others. Do not be weary of saying positive things, because what we believe, if we say it with faith, sooner or later will come true in the real world. Say the promises of God’s word every day and stop saying negative things! Because our words have great power.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable,if anything is excellent or praiseworthy,think about such things.
