Hung by the Tongue?
What an amazing characteristic our Heavenly Father has invested within us and yet why is it that so many of us don’t really appreciate what He has given us?
Here is a question for you; “With what did God create the world that we live in?”
Well of course you know….. it was with His Word.
Hebrews: 1v3 tells us something very interesting…. “who being the shining splendor of His glory, and the express image of His essence, and upholding all things by the word of His power, through Himself cleansing of our sins, He sat down on the right of the Majesty on high.
Notice what it does NOT say, “By the power of His WORD” but rather, “By the word of His POWER”. What does this mean? Well, God released His POWER through His WORDS and the wonderful thing is that He has given us the very same ability!!
Unfortunately many are not even aware of what they have and some do not even take what they have seriously. The very thing that God has given us to create, to transform ourselves into His likeness, to remove obstacles in our lives, to enable us to stand firm and establish His Kingdome in our lives we use to destroy ourselves and unfortunately, each other.
Notice again how God releases His power…. It is through the WORDS of His mouth, His words are capsules that contain HIS power.
In Mark: 11v23 Jesus tells us that we are to SPEAK to the mountains in our lives from a believing heart and we WILL have what we SAY! He did not tell us that we must speak ABOUT the mountains but rather to speak TO them. So many continue speaking ABOUT their problems and wonder why nothing is changing.
We are warned in Proverbs: 18v21 that Death and life are in the power of the Tongue, our tongues carry POWER, and we release this power by the words of our mouths because God has given us the power to create through whatever we are saying.
No wonder David says,
Psalms: 19v14
"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O Jehovah, before my mouth, keep the door of my lips"
Word paint a picture and we are the artists in our lives, if we don't like the painting we are seeing then let us start my looking at the Word of God, getting the right reflection and then begin to paint what we see in his Word with the words of our mouth and begin to walk in the reality of God's Holy Word giving Him all the Glory!
Love and Blessings,
