Bless Or Curse

I never realized how much I cursed my life until I started working on it. Instead of speaking negatively about myself or my future I spoke life into my words. God had to help me because it had become a habit. Now I hear people say things all the time like, I am fat, I am ugly, I am broke, I will never make any money, I will never get a good job, I am not strong enough, etc.


Do we want to bless or curse our life? It is our choice. We can curse it or bless it with our words. Proverbs 6: 2, "You are snared by the words of your mouth; You are taken by the words of your mouth." I choose to speak victory over my life and my girl's life. Mark 11: 23, "Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them." If we are going to go to the next level we need to say so. Psalm 91: 1-2, "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.'”


Joel 3: 10, reads, "let the weak say I am strong." It doesn't say for the weak to say I am weak! Speak life into your words and bless your life! Your words are so powerful!


"Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless." -Mother Teresa
