GMFBF SOMETIMES YOU NEED FAITH AND VICTORY SPOKEN OVER YOU LIFE. WORDS HAVE CREATED POWER. WHEN YOU RECEIVE THEM INTO YOUR SPIRIT, THEY CAN IGNITE SEEDS OF INCREASE ON THE INSIDE. I PETER 1:18-19 YOU WERE NOT REDEEMED WITH CORRUPTIBLE THINGS, LIKE SILVER OR GOLD, .....BUT WITH THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST. THE POWER OF WORDS IS ONE OF THOSE MYSTERIES ONLY HEAVEN WILL REVEAL. OUR WORDS HAVE THE POWER TO BLESS AND TO CURSE. ONLY HUMANS, CREATED IN HIS IMAGE, HAVE BEEN ENTRUSTED WITH SUCH POWER AND PRIVILEGE. NO DOUBT, EACH OF US CARRIES OR HAS CARRIED THE SCARS OF WORDS THAT WOUND-WORDS THAT CRITICIZE, NAMES THAT RIDICULE. THESE ARE UNWHOLESOME WORDS THAT TEAR DOWN RATHER THAN BUILD UP. BUT MIGHT GOD BE WILLING TO USE THE HURTFUL WORDS SPOKEN TO US TO MAKE OUR HEARTS SENSITIVE TO WORDS THAT EDIFY AND OUR MOUTHS MORE WILLING TO SPEAK THOSE WORDS? IMAGINE THE PRIVILEGE AND OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WORDS OF AFFIRMATION AND APPROVAL, WORDS THAT REFLECT OF THE DIVINE AND REMIND HEARERS OF THE UNEXPLAINABLE WORTH GOD HAS PLACED ON US. OUR CREATOR HAS HONORED US BY THE PRECIOUS GIFT OF HIS SON. THROUGH THAT GIFT, HE HAS DECLARED OUR WORTH AND VALUE. KNOWING THAT, HOW CAN I DEVALUE THROUGH MY WORDS WHAT GOD HAS HONORED? HOW CAN I SPEAK WORDS THAT DEMEAN, NEGLECT, OR RIDICULE MY SPOUSE, KNOWING THAT TO DO SO IS TO TRAMPLE ON THE BLOOD OF CHRIST? ON THE CONTRARY, THIS TRUTH ENCOURAGES MY LIPS TO SPEAK ONLY WORDS THAT EDIFY MY WIFE. SMALL THOUGHT HERE: MANY OF US FIND IT UNUSUAL WHEN MY WIFE AND I REMIND THEM THAT THEY DONT HAVE TO SAY EVERY CRITICAL OR NEGATIVE THING THEY THINK. MY WIFE WILL WALK AWAY WHEN WOMEN BEGIN TO DO THIS, OR SHE WILL CHANGE THE SUBJECT. SOMETIMES SHE WILL PULL THEM OFF TO THE SIDE AND ADMONISH THEM THAT EVERYONE DOESNT NEED TO KNOW THAT ABOUT YOUR SPOUSE. BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT HURTFUL WORDS CANT BE TAKEN BACK AFTER THEYVE WOUNDED THEIR TARGET. WE REMIND BOTH HUSBANDS AND WIVES TO ALWAYS SPEAK WORDS THAT REFLECT THE GREAT VALUE GOD HAS PLACED ON EACH OF THEM. AMEN? ENJOY YOUR DAY! WALK BY FAITH NOT BY SIGHT!
