The power of words spoken

Have you ever realized how much power is behind the words that you speak? Without knowing it you may simply tell someone to have a good day and you could have changed their entire concept of how their day has been going. Have you ever thought about the words that you many speak usally come to pass? The moment you wake up in the morning and declare that you are going to have a good day, your day is usually pretty great. It has been a known fact that many people have set their minds to making millions by simply saying that they are going to do it and sticking to it. You may come across failure here or there but they never gave up hope because they remember those little words that they are going to do it.

We have to watch the things that we say around people and to ourselves. Telling a kid that their are bad, mean, or hateful are powerful words that you have spoken over them to be just that. No one in there right mind wants to be unhappy or not sucessful. It is time to make a promise to yourself that from now on only positive words should form from your lips. This applys to everything! Although you may be upset with someone, ask yourself is it worth it. So many people have lost a love one and the first thing they think about is I wish I could have told them how I really felt. It is so important to love everyone around you; it could be your last chance to make things right.

Excercise: Try greeting everyone you pass with a smile. When they ask how are you, tell them you are "great", "wonderful", "blessed" or "awesome", watch their reaction! You may also change their mind about how their day are going!

Ephesians 4:29 ESV Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.

Proverbs 16:24 ESVGracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body.
