Fear is not from God; therefore, the next time you feel fear, open your mouth and say, “This fear is not from God, and I don’t believe it and won’t receive it.” Then say boldly, “I believe God and I will see His glory.” It might help to remember what FEAR stands for:

F—False

E—Evidence

A—Appearing

R—Real

Satan attempts to frighten us with his lies, but thank God we don’t have to live in fear!

PART II

The second part of this book consists of chapters about things that are good to say and things that we should not say. I want to encourage you to purposely say things that would please God, even though you may feel like saying something that would not please Him. I also want to encourage you not to say things that would not please God. Say things that will help and benefit you and the people you interact with, and avoid saying things that won’t help or bring benefit. This is a super simple guideline to how to have a more powerful and joy-filled life.

Now that you know the power of words, you are more likely to discipline yourself to say right things that are pleasing to God.

God has given us a free will, and with His help, we can choose to say what we know is right in any situation even if we feel like saying something that would be merely emotional and damaging to others or ourselves. I want to discuss some of what I refer to as the most common “word sins.” These are words we speak that are useless and or even damaging. They are things that are not pleasing to God, and in most instances things He has commanded us in His Word not to say. Most people don’t consider sins of this type as being very important. At least not as important as the “bigger sins,” such as adultery, stealing, lying, or murder, but they are more important than most of us realize. We may categorize sin as big and little, but I don’t think God does. Some sins may have a greater impact on our lives than others, but sin is sin, and it is all disobedience to God. Let us desire to obey God in all things, all the time!

Quite often we open a door for big problems in our lives through things we say, but when we cooperate with God’s plan by saying what He would say in every situation, we avoid many painful traps that Satan has laid for us.

As I said earlier, please remember that it is important not only to stop saying wrong things, but to begin saying right things. Words are containers for power, and we can decide what kind of power we want to fill them with. We can complain or be thankful, we can encourage or discourage others, we can bless or curse our own future, and we can open or close doors of opportunity by the way we speak to others. It is time to use wisdom with what we say.
