Keeping our word

"... Did I not make you swear by the Lord and worn you...?" At  that time you said to me, 'What you say is good, I  will obey.' Why then did you not keep your oath to the Lord and obey the command I gave you?"
1 Kings 2:42-43


Why waste your precious time and the precious time of others promising things that you have no intention of following through with?  
Hence, if you don't mean it, DON'T SAY IT.

Speak to the rock

"...Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its water..."
Numbers 20:8

When the world says it is impossible, show them it isn't - show them God's glory by speaking, in the name of the Jesus, to the impossible - show them the glory of God right in front of their eyes.  

My friend, if you have real faith in Christ, you can change the world's negativity - one blessed miracle at a time.

Now GO! God is with you.

“Now go; I will help you speak and teach you what to say.”
Exodus 4:12


Go, my friend.  Do not fear and by all means don’t look back.  
Let not one persons doubt ruin your faith in Christ; let not yourself doubt your faith, your abilities, your heart!! 
Yes, go forward my friend.  It is time.  God will be your eyes, ears, words... LIFE.  Let him take the lead, you just follow along.  Victory is yours and this new chapter in your life is going to shine with the bright glory of God for all the world to see and experience.

Peace and tranquility

“… always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give a reason for the hope that you have.  But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.”
1 Peter 3:15-16

Being gentle and respectful in word and deed towards others equals a good night’s sleep.

Hence, treating others opposite of said above will rob you of all peace and tranquility.

Don't believe everything you hear.

"My dear friends, don't believe everything you hear.  Carefully weigh and examine what people tell you..." 1 John 4:1 MSG

Consider the source of whom you are speaking with, as what they are telling you about somebody else, is similar to what they told somebody else about you.

Life makers, not life takers

Let’s follow the words of 1 Thessalonians and become life makers instead of life takers:

Let’s keep the eyes of our heart on God and be smart.  Let’s speak encouraging words to one another, gently encouraging and looking for the best in one another. Let’s be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time, thank God no matter what happens and, at all times, stay alert as to anything tainted with evil, making sure to keep it out of our lives completely.

(Adapted from 1Thesselonians 5:4-22 MSG).

Speak to that rock!

“… Speak to that rock that’s right in front of them and it will give water…” Numbers 20:7-8, The Message

When problems (rocks) come across your path in life, don’t back down, don’t run away, and don’t fear, instead, stand firm and speak directly to that rock trying to stop you.  The moment you do, God starts smashing it, and whether it be piece by piece or all at once, that rock has no chance with you ~ one way or another, victory is yours!!

The power of the tongue

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life].” Proverbs 18:21



What are you speaking? What type of words to you say? What kind of conversations do you engage in?  Start listening to yourself and I’ll bet that most of the problems, issues, misunderstandings, and thought processes are due to idiotic, useless, and idle words that we speak on a day to day basis.

Let’s begin to change and/or improve the way we speak so that the words we say lift up, help, and influence others. I truly believe the quality of our lives will change dramatically for the better.

Broken promises

“And Jephath made a vow to the Lord…” 
(Judges 11:30)

Whatever promises we speak - especially in times of dire stress, anxiety, anger, and haste – be prepared to follow through; if you don’t, and you do not seek forgiveness for making such promises, then, like Jephath, you will eventually eat your words.

Hence, adhere to these very wise words, Be 
“…slow to speak…”. 
(James 1:19)

He will be your voice.

“But the Lord said to me, Say not, I am only a youth; for you shall go to all to whom I shall send you and whatever I command you, you shall speak.
Be not afraid of them [their faces], for I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord.” Jeramiah 1:7-8

I know what it is like to be intimidated, to feel weak, to be afraid, to want to run and hide; yes, I know how these feelings can tear you down, inside and out.  However, like God spoke to Jeramiah, He’s speaking to you, saying, “You are not un-qualified, you are not too weak, you are not too short, too fat, too ugly… No, you are My child!  Therefore, you are qualified, you are strong, you are beautiful, you are amazing, and you are blessed; do not let their faces, actions, attitudes frighten you in any sort of fashion.  NO, my child, you keep moving forward, you keep following Me, and you will be rewarded more than those cynics could ever expect to be.”.

Friends, God gives us gifts we don’t even know about yet.  So, if you feel that you are moving in the direction that God wants you to go, then keep moving and keep doing; He will put the words in your mouth when you need them, and He will put the actions in your heart when the time comes to use them.

God won’t let you down – He won’t let you fail!

Even Jesus spoke to Satan:


Even Jesus spoke to Satan:

 

“… Satan, get lost!...”

Mark 8:32-33 MSG

 

As well, any thought, action, word, or deed that comes from another, or comes from you, which is not in line with the Word of God, needs to be cast out, spoken to, and destroyed in the mighty name of Jesus; Jesus died and now lives in you, which give you authority to do so!

 

So, speak – out loud and confidently – to Satan when he tries to come between you and the Word of God.  He is a liar, deceiver, and our lives are too precious to waste any time on him.  Therefore, DON’T!  Put your time into Jesus and LIVE, really L I V E !!!!

God is still alive and well

"... As their God, God-of-the-Angel-Armies, I am still alive and well..." Jeremiah 51:1-5 MSG

God is still alive and well and He sees and hears every word we speak, every move we make, and every thought we think.  
Therefore, as children of God, we need to speak, move, and act as such!!

Your words


113-see-yourself-spiritual-quotes-to-live-by.jpg

"... Use words truly and well.  Don't stoop to cheap whining...
Let your words change them.
Don't change your words to suit them..."
Jeremiah 15:19-21 MSG

The words you speak are lights to your soul.  Therefore, choose the words you speak wisely. Speak what you know is God-approved, God-blessed, and God-appropriate; let your words lift yourself and others up so that you can help change lives for the better in this harsh world.  Otherwise, those words you speak, those lights to your soul, will become who you are and will do absolutely no good for yourself or anyone else you converse with.  

Remember, the words you speak will be the exact words others use to describe who they think you are.

Raise your standard of living

How can you raise your standard of living? 
Simple:

“Live right,
speak the truth,
despise exploitation,
refuse bribes,
reject violence,
avoid evil amusements.
This is how you raise your standard of living!
A safe and stable way to live.
A nourishing, satisfying way to live.”
Isaiah 33:55-16 MSG


Now you know!
So raise your standards: Live out God’s word.

Every move you make

“… Eventually God will bring everything that we do out into the open and judge it according to its hidden intent, whether it’s good or evil.” Ecclesiastes 12:14

Every move you make, word you speak, action you embark on, or thought you think needs to be held accountable and aligned with the word of God.  If it isn’t, the outcome will not turn out in your favor. 
So, remember to ask yourself this regularly:  Is this something that I will be ashamed of when God’s light shines on it?

Words

“Those who guard their lips preserve their lives,  but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.” Proverbs 13:3

Boy, I need this today!  My mouth has been non-stop about people that I’ve been less-than-happy with lately.  Think it is time for me a mouth make-over - God help me. Ever had these kinds of days? 

Feel free to join me if you need a mouth make-over, and let God be our strength!

Move or stay?

When God speaks, move! 
When God is silent, stay!
