Rich blessing in Christ Jesus my dear friends of the cross.
Proverbs 18:21 says, Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.
Everyone of us have been called some kind of derogatory name by someone, whether in some kind of grade school, a play ground, the ball park, or in your own home by a parent or spouse. Each of us have at one time or another experienced the feelings of hurt their words caused us. God's word says
in Matthew 12:36-37, "I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for
every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified,
and by your words you will be condemned.”
In my study's the Lord's Holy Spirit impressed upon me a true understanding of how powerful our spoken words are. During a deliverance in my own life, the Holy Spirit had me speak the following phrase. (In the name of Jesus I demand any unclean spirit to rise up and leave my body right now) I did so, but spoke it in my head. I spoke the whole thing, and nothing happened. Then He (the Holy Spirit) spoke lovingly to me saying, "No my son, you must use your spoken words for they are mighty and very powerful." Again I spoke the words, but this time I said them aloud. Wow, what a difference! Things began to happen, but that is another story best kept for another teaching. Our spoken words (only under the anointing of the Holy Spirit) have great power when used to expel demons in Jesus name and even heal the sick.
We see in Mark 16:15-18 the mighty power we have speaking in Jesus name; And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel
to the whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved,
but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will
accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they
will speak in new tongues; they will pick up serpents with their hands;
and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will
lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
Our everyday words also hold great power to bless or curse others. This is why Jesus says to stay clear of idle words or you'll give an account on the day of Judgement. You see my friends, our enemy finds great joy in the suffering of God's children and he employes every trick in his arsenal to hurt us. He understands that the condition of our heart holds the key to our relationship with Christ. Jesus say's in Matt. 11:29-30 "Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
If you or someone you know is struggling with their self esteem take the time to pray this powerful prayer with them. Together with the Holy Spirit you can break the bondage of the enemy and find freedom in Christ.
The Prayer,
My dearest, majestic, Lord Jesus Christ, I thank you that you died for me. I thank you that you gave yourself on the cross, a death of agony and of shame to purchase me. Lord Jesus, I belong to you. I am yours forever. I know you will never leave me, you will never forsake me. I am engraved on the palms of your hands. I am beautiful in your eyes, more beautiful than all the worlds you created, because you set your love upon me, because you love me so much. I love you Lord Jesus. Receive my love upon on you now oh Lord. Allow me to lavish you with my love Lord Jesus. I thank you Lord, that I am not unwanted. In you I am worthy Lord. I'm not a cast-off. I'm not rejected. I'm accepted and beloved in your Holy name Lord Jesus. I praise you again and again Lord God, for such wonderful, gracious, merciful, love that you poured out on the cross all for me Lord. Thank you Lord Jesus. AMEN!
The Peace of The Lord be upon you,
Kelly Wayne,
