YOUR WORDS ARE ALIVE

OCTOBER 18 2025

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh

profiteth nothing: the words that I speak

unto you, they are spirit, and they are

life (John 6:63).

The words you speak are not empty; they don’t just

go away; they live on. Don't think the last thing

you said ended when you said it. Every word that comes

out of your mouth is alive in the spirit-realm. The only way

to repel or counter already spoken words is by speaking

words that are opposite and more powerful. Words are

things; they have energy and tangibility.

This should make you put a premium on words. Never

say what you don’t mean or don’t want to happen. Never

speak negatively because the principle is simple but

spiritual: you shall have what you say. The Lord Jesus said

so: “For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say

unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast

into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall

believe that those things which he saith shall come to

pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith” (Mark 11:23).

It’s for the same reason He tells us not to speak idle,

inoperative words: “But I say unto you, That every idle

word that men shall speak, they shall give account

thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou

shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be

condemned” (Matthew 12:36-37). Idle words are useless

words, words you speak that don't mean anything. He says

you’ll be held accountable for speaking such words.

Remember, you’re made in the image and likeness of

God, and what did the Master say about Himself? He said,

“...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and

they are life” (John 6:63). He put a premium on words.

The difference between the words of the Lord Jesus and

the words of any other person is that He spoke life. He

gave us an example to follow.

Proverbs 18:21 says, “Death and life are in the

power of the tongue....” Speak only life and everything

in your life and environment will live. Speak life to your

business, your finances, your body, your children, and

to everything around you. Remember, your words never

die; they’re living and active; they determine the course or

direction of your life. Whether you're going to be a success

or a failure is all in your mouth.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for teaching me the power of

words. My words are full of life, power and faith. I speak

only what I desire to see. I speak life to my body, progress

to my work, growth to my finances, and peace to my

environment. Thank you for making my tongue a tree of

life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
