A Word About Life and Things
At Your Word
|
Our words are the most powerful thing that we have.
We have the power of life and death in our tongues.
We can speak life or death into our own souls, into
our spouses, and into our kids by what we say. The
tongue is a very powerful weapon for good or evil.
We have what we say we have and God cannot bless us
if we are speaking against the things that He wants
to give us.
When the people of Israel did not want to go into the promised land because it looked hard to do and they complained, the Lord said in Numbers 14:28 “say to them, “As I live,' says the LORD, `just as you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you:” We have what we say that we have. When Jesus said to Peter in Luke 5:4 ….. He said to Simon, "Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch." 5 But Simon answered and said to Him, "Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net." Peter trusted the word that Jesus said. When we trust God we will not speak against His Word. Some people will argue about what is said in the word of God. God did not mean that or this or whatever. We need to take what the Bible says as if God is speaking to us today and He is speaking to us and wondering if we will trust Him or not. At my word, we will trust our God. –––––––––––––––––––––––– New King James Version Matthew 12: 36 "But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. 37 "For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." New King James Version 1 Kings 17:1 ¶ And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, "As the LORD God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except at my word." |
