There is a secret force that is released each time you speak.
While I was playing tennis with my son, I screamed out, “Goulet, you idiot!” Beautiful words of life, right? I was not yelling at my son; I was mad at myself because I missed a shot. I immediately stopped and said: “That’s not true. I may be a lot older and a lot slower, but I’m not an idiot.”
Do you ever speak words of condemnation to yourself? Have you called yourself ugly, stupid or something worse? Do you say things like: “I'm going to fail” or “I just can’t”?
I believe that the words coming out of your mouth can either create life, or they can create death. friend, do you believe this?
This morning, as I was reading the Bible, I stumbled upon the following in the book of John chapter 1: “In the beginning was the Word,... And the Word became flesh...” (John 1:1-14, NASB).
Could this be a clue to the power of our words? That our words turn into flesh?
That’s kind of scary, isn’t it? It makes me think about some of the hurtful and unkind words that I’ve said to people in the past.
This revelation makes me cry out to Jesus, “Oh God, please forgive me!”. It also makes me want to kick right into action.
friend, I’ve put together this plan of action to make a positive change in my life, and I hope these tips help you as well:
- Ask God to forgive you. Great...you are now forgiven.
- Make a list of people you need to ask for forgiveness. Go see them, and just do it. Great...you are starting to rebuild.
- Cancel all the death words that are part of your self-talk.
- Speak life to God, yourself and others. Create life.
