Praise God. As a servant of the Most High God, I have a trifold mandate. Number one is to pray and heal the sick. Number two, to drive out demons. And number three, to preach the life-saving, life-giving gospel of Jesus Christ. If you have any of these needs, please reach out to us and the Lord God whose mighty will be with you.

Today we talk about faith and the power of words. We read from the book of Hebrews chapter 11 and verse 3, and it says, "by faith we understand that the worlds were formed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of the things which are visible." Hallelujah. Our limited minds cannot fathom some of these scriptures, but the Holy Spirit makes sure that we know it is true. You know, people try to question about the origin of the world, how God came to be, and such things. But as the scripture says, by faith we understand that the worlds were formed by the word of God. The word of God is Jesus Christ and His words are powerful.

The Lord God Almighty has sent me to you to say, "learn to speak words that build and not tear. Speak life and not death." Very, very important. Careful for what you tell people, what you tell yourself. Indeed, what you say is what will happen to your life. Proverbs 23, 7 says, "as a man thinketh, so is he." So what do you think about yourself? Do you think you're good? Do you think you're bad? Do you think you're capable of doing the things that are put in front of you? Be careful what you feed yourself because those form your thought processes and belief system and the way you view life, which is commonly known as worldview.

Philippians 4, 8 says, "finally brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report. If there is any virtue and if there's anything praiseworthy, meditate on these things." Hallelujah. If you meditate on the good, then that's how you become good. As a man thinketh,so is he. So what are you feeding yourself as you grow older, as you grow in your walk with the Lord, you realize food is not just what you consume through your mouth. Food is what you see with your eyes, what you smell, what you hear, who you associate with that feeds your life.

Proverbs 18, 21 as I close says "death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it relate its fruit." Hallelujah. Careful what you say. Just like we are made in the image of God who spoke the universe into existence, you can also speak things over your life, speak prosperity, speak salvation, speak peace through your tongue and the Lord God Almighty will work this out through his laws, through his grace to make them come to fruition. Until next time, the Lord bless you and be with you.
