Words have power.

 Words have power. 

YOUR words have power.  

One of the better-known scriptures concerning the power of words is Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit. Probably from your own life you have experienced this.  How someone spoke something over you when you were young that, positively or negatively, influenced the rest of your life. 

The question is now what words are you speaking over your life and the life of those around you?  Are you speaking life to things that need to become alive and are you speaking death to those things that need to die?

Been With Jesus

  Acts 4:13   Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus.   I saw a clip from an interview with R.T. Kendall where he was asked this question, “After 70 years in ministry what would be your advice to a young R.T. Kendall?”  His answer was that though he himself has many degrees he would not recommend to young ministers to go to seminary.  He mentioned Acts 4:13. His recommendation was to do 2 things.  Pray a lot and know your Bible. He said that God wants us to know 2 things, His Word and His ways. He pointed out that how we know His ways or anyone’s ways is to spend time with them. This is not the first time that Acts 4:13 has jumped out to me. This time I ask myself the question do unbelievers know that I have been with Jesus?  The they that realized in Acts 4:13 wasn’t the church but unbelievers....
