There is power in the word
Hello friends, happy Tuesday to everyone. How are you all doing? I wish everyone a happy and a successful day.
There's a phrase that always says where the word of a king is there is power. And another one says there's power in the spoken word. The word is everything because I have come across the bible verse that says in the beginning was the word and the word was with God. And the word was God. It says that the same was in the beginning with God. This implies that there's nothing that can be done on earth without the word. There is so much power in the spoken word, that is why most of us are advice not to pray with it.
There is so much power in the tongue, the scripture says I have given you the power in your tongue to declare what ever you desire. The word is everything and if the word is taken out I wouldn't believe that everything will be possible. I always believe that there is power in the spoken word with some references. When I remember the days of Ezekiel, Moses, Elisha and Jesus let me just stop here because I wouldn't want to go far.
When the lord spoke to Ezekiel and said Ezekiel can this bones live? And Ezekiel answered, that God knows the best. And again the lord commanded him to prophesy upon the dry bones and say to them, you dry bones hear the word of the lord. For the lord says to you, behold I will cause breath to enter into you and then you shall live again. And I will sinews upon you and will bring fresh upon you and cover you with skin, and also put breath in you, then you will know that I am the lord.
And Ezekiel said the word as he was commanded, as he was saying the word there was a noise and behold a shaking and the bones came together bone to his bone and as he was prophesying the sinews and the fresh came upon them and the skin covered them above, but there was no breath in them and the word of the Lord still came to Ezekiel saying say a word to the wind, thus says the lord come from the four winds on breath and breath up this slain that they may live.
He did as he was commended and breath came upon them and they lived. This is a familiar story to a every christians let me stop it here if anyone is interested in the story this can be found in the bible Ezekiel 37 start from verse 1. This is part of the scripture that made me to believe that there's power in the spoken word or should I mention that of Elisha's miracle. Elisha spoke a word and the word manifested. He said according to my word there shall be know rain nor dew for three and half years in this land and it stands.
This is where that really challenged a lot of christians including I myself. I always become marvel if a man can stood up and locked the heavens by his word. When talking about Moses who performs so many miracle through the spoken word, all this miracle was through the power that is in the spoken word. Jesus came with understanding of the word and he performs miracle that people where so amaze. The leper met him and said lord if thou wilt that I might be made well and Jesus reply I wilt and the leprosy left him.
Even when Lazarus died Jesus brought him back with word, when he arrived the scripture says he wept tears but when he remembered what the word can do, he ordered the stone to be rolled away and he called Lazarus with a loud voice and commanded him to come out and instantly the power of hell realised something different and Lazarus came to life. Everything under the sun was made by the word. It is good that we use word so carefully because there is power in it.
There's power in the spoken word, what ever we say be it positive or negative it will always happen because the word are spirit not just ordinary thing that we can touch or feel. So when ever we get upset we should be mindful of what comes out of our mouth so that we will not cause harms to ourselves or to other people. Let's understand the power that is in the word and start using them wisely.
Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate you for your time.
Even as there is power in the word, it has to be said and applied with faith because prophesying by the word and not having faith will not do anything.
