We are living in a world of words and as Manly Hall, the Canadian-born author and mystic said, "Words are potent weapons for all causes, good or bad." Due to the fact that this is so true, I have devised a quiz, so that you can test yourself to see whether you are aware of the profound effects that positive words, or negative words have.We often say words thoughtlessly but also, many times, we do not really mean what we say. In sense, we live in a semantic universe. Have you ever heard a father say that his child is dead lazy, or have you heard someone say, "I wanted to die, when.."perhaps he ran into a colleague that you were trying to avoid? Is that really what that person really meant, that is, that he wanted to die? Of course not, so you can see how vital the choice of positive words are.
Everyone of us expects positive breakthroughs in life, like having a successful business venture, getting out of debt, to be healthy or having a right life partner, but nothing is changing because Often we make a mistake, when we talk ourselves out of our plans by speaking negative things. You cannot talk defeat and expect to have victory. The moment you speak something out, you are giving life to something good or bad. Negative thoughts come to every person, you can't stop the thoughts from coming into your mind. The key to success is not to speak out negative thoughts. Do yourself a favor Be positive and zip your lips.Negative words can keep you away from your destiny. If you will roam around saying that I am not qualified enough, I don`t have it in me, I am too young or too old, I don`t have what it takes, then you would become exactly what you are saying.God has called every one of us to do something great. He has put some special talents within us. It's easy to make excuses but God wants us to move forward.Just imagine that your success is on the way, and you are talking about how it`s not going to happen, how you will never get the right things in your lives. May be you are a couple of months away from seeing the answer you are waiting for, maybe you have been praying or expecting good results in a specific sphere of your life. But right before it happens, you start verbalizing wrong words and the good things around you stand still.
The Good news is that the breakthrough is still in your future, nothing has been cancelled and if you get rid of all your doubts and activate your faith, you will get the right things at the right time.Some things look impossible but impossible does happen in this world. Just because you don`t see anything happening doesn`t mean nothing is happening behind the scenes. Right now, behind the scenes, God is planning your future. He will move out obstacles out of your way and put the right things at right place.Don`t invite defeat and mediocrity in your life. Pay attention to what you are attracting into your life through your words. You may not feel healthy today but you have to say that you are healthy, you may not feel confident, but you have to call yourself confident. The circumstances may not say that you are prosperous but you have to say by faith that you are prosperous. If you can`t say anything good, don`t say anything at all. Don`t let your negative words keep you from God`s best. If you stop talking defeat, you will certainly see victory in every aspect of your life.he power of words cannot be over estimated. They are the most powerful things in existence.
God created us to be like Him. He made us to be speaking creatures with the ability to cause change through the power of our words. Everyone lives under the power and influence of words. Words really control everything in this realm and in the Eternal Realm.The manner of life that you are living, positive or negative, has been brought about by words spoken to you and over you, or that you spoke over yourself, words that were thought upon and accepted. These words formed an inner image on the inside of you. By inner image, I mean the way that you view yourself and life in general on the inside, in your heart and mind.Please understand, you speak and live out what is in you in abundance.The condition of your heart and mind determines what you think, how you speak and how you live and treat yourself and other people.Proverbs 4:23 (King James Version of the Bible),"Keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life."The word, keep, means to guard. And the word issues, means, out-flowing. So this verse of Scripture is telling us, to guard what we allow to get into our hearts, for we will live it out. Why is this so? Because words paint pictures. They paint pictures inside of us, in the subconscious area of our souls. And from these inner pictures, we live our lives.
If negative, abusive and destructive words have been spoken to us and we have allowed these words to take form and develop in us and believed them, we are living under their control.However, if we choose to cast down those words and throw away those paintings, and choose to let God's Word paint new pictures of love and wholeness, purity, prosperity and ability in us, we will find a new way of living. Here is an example of the power of negative words: Some time ago, I sang in church pretty often. I loved to sing, and still do. And people enjoyed when I sang. But one day, someone that I respected told me that I could not sing. This produced in me an inner image of failure in the area of singing. I stopped singing. And when I was asked to sing, I would make excuses so that I didn't have to sing.
In our own language we say expressions without thinking, but in another language we tend to notice the literal meaning of words and phrases. For example, there is a phrase in Italian "Non vale niente," that means it isn't worth anything when often the thing is being compared to another thing, but it does not really mean that the object is not worth anything! Another phrase e.g. "morire di noia" means to die of boredom. Translated in a typical sentence could be "I am so sick of working, I hope to die of boredom when I retire." Obviously, a person doesn't really want to die like this when they retire.
Parents, what are you telling your children.Oh be careful what you feed the minds of your child. Make sure you are not feeding them with a destructive mindset of negativism and limitation.Feed them truth from God's Word about themselves so that they can see themselves in the light of truth, God's Truth, and act accordingly.Words will form their inner self, positive or negative.Let me give you another vivid picture of the power of words and their affect upon the hearts and minds of people.It is sad, but true that many young people have gotten caught up in some very negative and destructive habits and behaviors.I remember when this trend started to develop some serious problems in our land.People started throwing blame all over the place.Some blamed the parents.Some blamed the teachers.Some even had the audacity to blame the church.But very few really placed the blame where it really belonged.We must remember that we all have an enemy named satan.He is an evil foe that does not care about anyone. His one intent is destroying mankind.The enemy has come against this generation through the negative influence of destructive thoughts.Of course he has been using people to plant these negative images in the hearts of men and women, boys and girls. And he still does.
He has hidden these destructive seeds in things that we think are okay, when in reality, they are painting some very hurtful and ungodly pictures right in the heart of our imaginations.These destructive thoughts are coming in the form of words and images, through the television programs and music that we watch and listen to which dishonors God and His Word.Think about the amount of violence, murders, foul language, illicit sex, witchcraft, gambling, adultery and drugs that are in the music and the television programs that our young people are watching and listening to constantly.Oh there is nothing wrong with this music, they say.Yes something is wrong with it.It has painted and is painting some very negative and destructive thought patterns in people's minds and they are acting them out big time.Everybody lives out what is in their hearts and minds in abundance, positive or negative.
Words are containers. They contain positive things, or they contain negative things. They contain faith or they contain fear. They contain joy and peace or they contain worry and misery. And if those words ore wrapped in belief, then we will find ourselves having the same things that we say.If you and I desire to be truly successful in life, we must ensure that our words are positive and filled with faith. We must continually say that we are able to do what is in our hearts to do, and that we can accomplish great things because we have a great God.
God's Word is alive.God's Word has transforming power.The word, transform means: to change from one form to another. (And in the context of this book, we are indicating that change to be for the better).So God's Word is able to give you such a new and glorious and powerful inner image that you will literally change in your manner of life.Words form and create the inner image and produce a lifestyle after their kind.That is why it is so important to be careful what you hear and what you speak.Words are seeds. And your heart is the ground in which the seeds are planted.If the wrong seeds of despair and inability were planted they will produce after their kind.However, God's Word is powerful seeds of truth that can up-root the bad seeds and produce wonderful fruits in our lives.Through the affirmations of God's Word, we see ourselves and our conditions from His perspective and we are enabled to change things as His Word changes us on the inside.At one point in my life, I felt like I was a failure. It just seemed like I had not accomplished anything noteworthy with my life.And I was constantly plagued with the thought that I was a nobody.It was depressing.But thank God for His Word.Through affirming His Word over my life concerning the reality that I am a child of God, I rose above the depression that tried to hold me down.You see, God is my Father. And because I belong to Deity, the one thing I am not is worthless.I am His Child filled with His power, His Spirit and His Ability.I am created for good works in Jesus Christ.That means I am created to do some good things.And so are you.Ephesians 2:10 (King James Version of the Bible) "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus, unto good works, which God had before ordained that we should walk in them."You are created to do good things. You are created to accomplish awesome things.Affirm this Word from Your Father, Jehovah God, over and over until it forms an inner image of success and victory on the inside of you.Let it wash away those destructive thoughts of worthlessness.God's Word in your heart, changing and shaping your mind in the light of His Truth, will change you.Change your mind through the power of meditation, and change your life.
