Our words have power

(Audio: Español)

RESUMEN: The words we speak have great power, especially as parents over our children. The tongue has the power of life and death, so we must be careful what we say, even to ourselves. As Christians, we should positively confess and declare God's good will. We should change our vocabulary from negative to positive, bless our children, and give them compliments and encouragement. Blessings are important, and we have spiritual authority with the things we visualize and pronounce with our mouths. The author gives an example of how he blesses his grandson through a statuette and prophetic words. We should declare God's blessing and open a channel of blessing for those under our authority, including our family and ministries.

It is important that we understand the power that a child of God has with the words he speaks with his mouth.

Many times when we criticize our children when we are upset about something they have done and we say: "oh you will never be a good thing" or "you are a liar", or "I will see you one day in jail if you do not change the way you are". These words uttered that come out of our mouth have great power over our children and uttered by a parent who has spiritual authority over a child, those words, those expressions that we cast over our children can be extremely harmful.
