Are You Speaking Life or Death?

Are You Speaking Life or Death?

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat its fruit.”       Proverbs 18:21

Your Words have Power!

Your Words have Power!

If a tape recorder was attached to you and your words were recorded for an entire week, 7 full days, every second of the 168 hours, what would be revealed?

Do you think your words would be mostly positive or negative?

We live in such a negative society where it can feel like negativity is the norm.

Can you relate?

I’m sure you can.

Remember this:  Regardless of what’s happening all around us, we still have a choice as to how we will live.

Yes, you read it correctly… “Regardless of what’s happening all around us, we still have a choice as to how we will live.”

Words are power.

God created the entire world and everything in it by speaking things into existence.

My prayer is that you will realize just how powerful your words are because they become self-fulfilling prophecies.

It’s true!  What we say makes a difference!

Accept this challenge!  For the next 24 hours, only speak positive and uplifting words.

Can you do it?  What do you think?

Take the challenge and let’s see what happens.  If you slip by saying something negative, no problem.  Just keep a log of all the negative words, statements and phrases so you can see how well you did at the end of this 24-hour challenge.  This will be an eye-opening experience.  Speak positivity and see how your life transforms.

We welcome your insights and feedback to these questions.  Do share your feedback.

Questions of Reflection

How important are the words that you speak?  Do explain.

What can you do to speak more positive and uplifting words?

    Marvin Risen, I truly believe in Proverbs 18:21. Many years ago I was working and I was tired of working and I wanted to be sick and not know what I was saying. Couple of days I begin getting sick then it got worst and I got my whole family sick. I was out of work for two weeks. God has shown me be careful what you say and do. Right now I haven't been sick at all. I do not say I am sick I just speak healing over my body all the time. I am quick to ask for forgiveness. I am imperfect too but I will not let it defeat me or feel guilty or condemned. Speaking life over everything and it really works. God, Jesus Christ, Holy Spirit is very a live in this pretty world. God Bless You!!!!
