Greetings Balanced Life Family,
Have you ever been working on a project that was not going well and said, “I’ll never get this done.” or “I can’t do anything right.” or “This is impossible!”? Watch your words! Be mindful of the words that you speak. WORDS HAVE POWER!
Words are wonderful when used properly. However words can do damage when used improperly . "A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit." Proverbs 15:4 You can use words to encourage, motivate, instruct, uplift and inspire. You can also use words to discourage, demean, hinder, and destroy. WORDS HAVE POWER!
When you speak, your words not only go into the ears of others, but into your ears as well. They don’t stop there, but they find their way into your soul which causes you to feel peace or torment, joy or sadness, depending on the words you have spoken.
If you go around all day speaking negative words, they will affect you. If you speak words like “I can’t do it”, you are defeated before you start. “This is going to be a horrible day.” You’ll probably get what you say. “Nobody likes me.” You’re contributing to your chances of being disliked. “ I’ll never get a break.” You probably won’t. “My sickness is incurable.” You may never get healed.
God wants you to have a positive attitude because he made you to be victorious! So be mindful to watch what you say. "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." Proverbs 18:21 Speak positive words. Speak faith! Speak strength! Speak life! Speak success! WORDS HAVE POWER!
