Cindy Trimm Empowerment Moments: The Power Of Words (4725 hits)
APRIL 10, 2011
Last week I talked to you about the importance of identity because we must never forget we belong to "a royal priesthood" (1 Peter 2:9). The word royal speaks of our kingly attributes as believers—and priesthood as being ordained to speak on behalf of God and "to bless." Too many of us have neglected our royal duty to decree blessings over our marriages, families, businesses, ministries, and every other realm of our lives. The whole universe is waiting for you and I to speak out! The Bible says, "the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God" (Romans 8:19 ESV). All of creation waits for God's "called out and anointed ones" to bring it back into alignment with the Creator's original intent. Every word you speak is pregnant with regal, creative power!
You were created in the image of God. One thing we know about God is that His Word carries immense creative power and always accomplishes what He intends it to. In the beginning God spoke out what He had seen in his mind. He imagined the cosmos, but it was not until His Word framed what He saw did all we see appear in the physical world. Imagination has no power until it is expressed—and the most powerful expression is our words backed by God's Word. Hebrews 10:23: Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.
