The Power of Words

 

Hey beloved 💛

I hope you’re doing well and that you had an amazing weekend! Honestly, I don’t doubt that you did. My weekends are usually full of laughter, chatter, and joyful chaos—thanks to my two beautiful, talkative girls. The joy of being a girl mom, right? Ha!

Anyway, let’s get into today’s blog post.

What’s your understanding of the power behind words?
Take a moment to think about that—and if you’d like, share your thoughts in the comments below.

I’ll be honest—I didn’t truly understand the power of words until I had a dream in 2023.

In this dream, a man I didn’t recognize came to me and simply said, “Use your words.”
That was it. No explanation. Just those three words.

I woke up confused, wondering what that could mean. Use my words? What was I supposed to say?

At the time, I was in a season of deep seeking—asking God to reveal my purpose. What I didn’t realize was that this dream was God’s answer to that prayer. I just needed to keep pressing in until my heart and mind could grasp the full revelation.

As I persisted in prayer, the meaning slowly became clear. I began to speak what I wanted to see in my reality—and the more I spoke, the more I started to see those very words take shape in my life.

That’s when I truly learned it: words carry power.
Our words create our reality.

Since then, my life has never been the same. I’ve learned to use my words thoughtfully and wisely. I’m still learning not to speak when I have nothing kind or fruitful to say—and to stay silent when I sense my words might be misunderstood.

Because here’s the truth:
Your words are powerful.

If you speak defeat, you will live defeated.
But if you speak life—then life is exactly what you will see.

So, let me ask you this:
How have you been using your words?

Are you building or tearing down?
And remember—it’s not just about what you say to others.
It’s also about what you say to yourself about yourself.

Choose life with your words today. 🌱
