Topic: Just Words
Matthew 12:37, ‘For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.’
Text: Matthew 12:34-37
God created the heavens, the earth, and everything in the world through His words (Heb. 11:3). The whole creation was made by and responds to words. When spoken in faith, our words release either life or death (Prov. 18:21) and will affect people, things, and circumstances. We can release the power that is in faith by our words.
Every word counts. There is no ‘idle’ word that will not work for us or against us. Our words can be our most potent weapon against the devil or become a snare of the devil (Prov. 6:2). Faith-filled words can move mountains.
The faith that made Jesus marvel was faith in the spoken word’s authority (Mt. 8:8, 10). We are to believe in the power of our words. If we begin to speak words in faith that align with God’s Word, we will have the following positive results. But if we continue to speak words of doubt, we will eventually believe them and have the negative things that these words produce. Death or life is in the power of every word we speak.
Faith is released by speaking words. Jesus encouraged us to talk to mountains or whatever our problem might be. Most people talk to God about their problems, but few follow Jesus’ instructions and speak directly to the ‘mountain.’ God has put certain things under our authority, and we must exercise them. When a problem stands in our way, we must speak to the problem and command it to get out of our way in the name of Jesus. Speak God’s Word today. His Words will produce life.
