Speaking...

“ I said I'll do it!”

Some have shaped the lives of others, positively or negatively, by the very words they speak to them. Still others have “self-talked” their way out of great opportunities, prosperity, wellbeing or fulfilling their divine purpose in life. Words are very powerful.


Words are more powerful than thoughts

Words expressed verbally are more powerful than thoughts. Spoken words are exact. You know clearly and precisely what someone is saying. If there is a question about what one has said, there may be opportunity for clarity. We can process words and consider what we say before we say it. When we learn to think and feel on purpose, then our spoken words will become more intentional and effective.

Words are creative. They produce, in an unexplainable way, what they mean. “I just know I’m going to get sick,” strangely enough find you suffering from a cold or fever the next day. “I always get the job I want,” perhaps have kept you employed and successfully advancing in your career. It’s not that mysterious, but it does require that you really believe in your heart what you say.

Words can hurt

The popular saying, “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” is a gross misconception. Words can hurt, even to the point of causing serious trauma that could result in death. There have been a growing number of suicides reported that were caused by the pain of harsh words. Countless lives have been permanently altered because of unkind words spoken by someone close to them.

Words can heal

Words have healing power. Words have the power to go out into the atmosphere and perform the action of their literal meaning. When we speak healing words, whether in the presence of the person who is in need or not, the results are remarkably the same.That is why we pray for those who are sick.

Words with feelings are very powerful

Words accompanied by emotions and feelings are very powerful. To be able to feel what someone is saying is quite effective. It is a matter of fact that people use their emotions, and not necessarily their logic, to receive what a speaker says and to judge whether it’s true. This is why we must be passionate about what we are saying in order to be taken seriously. When a message is believed, people decide how they will respond to it.
As the older generation would say, “Speak when spoken to; children should be seen and not heard.” Perhaps they were right. 
We would be wise to listen.
