Guard Whatever You Say

By: Moissah Grace Page Casas

Friend, there’s a miracle in your mouth. If you want to change your world, start by changing your words. As a rule, the more positive your thoughts and words, the stronger you will be and the sooner you will get over whatever ails you. Truly, when times get tough, our human nature tends to complain, to talk about the problem, to tell everybody who listen how badly life is treating us. But trust me, such conversations are self-defeating. To get through a tough situation quicker and go with better results, we must know and learn how to speak as positively as possible. Words are like seeds. By uttering them, they are planted in our subconscious minds, they take roots, and they grow and then produce fruits of the same kind whether what you speak is negative or positive. Most likely, negative words will produce poor results. You can’t speak words of failure or defeat yet expect to live life in victory. What you reap is what you sow.

Sadly, many people lived with  discouraged lives because of their words. They keep on saying things like: “I can’t do it”, “I’m weak”, “I’ll never be successful”, “nothing good ever happens in my life”, “I want to give up”. Some people even call themselvesnames. “What an idiot!” “I’m such a failure” they don’t even realize that their own words are leading them to the way of failure. I’ve read a quote and it goes like this “what you say in the midst of your difficulties will have an impact on how long you stay in those situations.” Indeed there is power in every spoken word because every spoken word is a prayer. I have a friend who is a doctor, he understood the power of words. He always encouraged his patients that in everyday at the hospital as they drink their medicines they should say “I’m getting better and better every day, I’m healed.” The doctor’s patients had experienced positive results and they got to recover as fast as possible.

Every time I struggle with low self-esteem, I always think to go overboard by speaking positive and faith-filled words of victory that I’ve been in my life. Getting up each morning and saying “I am loved”, “I am blessed”, “I am a conqueror”,” I am victorious!” Start speaking those kinds of words too and you’ll see as time goes by we will rise up to a new level of well-being, success and victory. This sounds too good to be true and I know it is true! There is truly power in our words so always guard whatever we say.
