MY WORD FOR JULY 17 IS WORD!

My word for July 17^th is WORD

There is power in a word.  One word can be said and it affects someone deeply.  Words can be spoken to harm others.  Words can be spoken to help others.  Just a small four-letter word can change someone’s life forever.  When someone speaks words, these words can be spoken for advice and guidance.  Words can be spoken as venting or as intervention.  Words can be spoken out of anger or jealousy.  Words spoken from the tongue can be harsh.  Before you speak words think about it.  Just by changing your tone a word can be taken differently.  Think before you speak.  Just as the three monkeys, see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil.

I love the quote I found on face book this morning.

Words give power to your thoughts & those thoughts direct your actions. Spectacular results begin with powerful, positive words. The words you listen to the most are your own, & you generally accept them without question. So make them powerful. Make them positive. Talk to yourself & about yourself with confidence. The positive power in your vocabulary will easily & naturally become a part of your life. — Ralph Marston

God’s word has tremendous power.  The word of God, when spoken in faith, can overcome many obstacles.  God’s word will accomplish His desires and His purposes.  As described in the article, “The Mighty Power of the Word of God”, by Pastor Jim Feeney, Ph.D., he describes the word of God as a hammer.  The hammer can drive home a nail having positive results.  The hammer can also break down obstacles overcoming the negatives.  Speak God’s word, study god’s word, and you will have power and truth. 

Speak Gods word and bring forth astounding results.  Disregard the negative and only speak and listen to the positive. 

Jeremiah 23:28-29 (NIV)

28 Let the prophet who has a dream recount the dream, but let the one who has my word speak it faithfully. For what has straw to do with grain?” declares the Lord. 29 “Is not my word like fire,” declares the Lord, “and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?

Romans 10:8 (NIV)

8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,”[a] that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim:

Dear God help us to speak no evil, hear no evil, or read no evil.  By reading Your word we will learn how to speak positively and help others to press on.  Guide us in using the correct tone so our words aren’t taken harshly.  During 2012 guide us with the tremendous power of Your word, speaking power and truth to all of those we come in contact with.
