Day 97: THE POWER OF YOUR WORDS
Scripture
Proverbs 18:21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
DAILY WISDOM
Your words are either constructing your future or destroying it. Choose wisely!
MESSAGE
Words are spiritual energies that mould destiny; they are more than simply sounds. Since God spoke to create the world, everything in it reacts to speech. Light emerged immediately after He said, "Let there be light" (Genesis 1:3). Since we are created in God's image and He produces by speaking, then our words have the capacity to create as well!
Many Christians say terrible things in response to their prayers for breakthroughs. Unknowingly, they undo their own marvels! It is counterproductive for someone to pray for financial growth while saying, "Money is hard to come by." What you perceive is determined by your words!
KEY TRUTHS ABOUT THE POWER OF WORDS
- Words Are Seeds That Produce Harvests
“For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.” – Matthew 12:37
Every word you speak is a seed sown into your future. If you keep saying, “I will succeed,” you are planting a seed of success. If you say, “Nothing works for me,” you are sowing failure. Your words shape your destiny!
- Words Can Attract or Repel Favor
“Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.” – Proverbs 21:23
Some people struggle because their mouths work against them. The difference between promotion and stagnation can be the words you speak daily.
- Words Control the Supernatural
“Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you.” – Numbers 14:28
The Israelites limited themselves by negative speech. God will do what He hears you say—whether positive or negative.
- Words Can Change Any Situation
“Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee.” – Job 22:28
You don’t have to accept any negative situation. You can change it by speaking the right words in faith!
HOW TO SPEAK POWERFULLY LIKE GOD
- Speak in Line with God’s Word – Say what God says about you, not what circumstances suggest (Isaiah 55:11).
- Speak with Authority and Faith – Believe that your words carry power (Mark 11:23).
- Speak Consistently – Keep declaring the right things even when situations seem unchanged (Hebrews 10:23).
- Reject Negative Words – If anyone speaks failure over you, cancel it immediately in Jesus’ name (Isaiah 54:17).
DAILY PURPOSE NOTE
Be intentional about your speech today. Declare only what aligns with God’s Word!
