THE POWER OF WORDS

“Death and life are in the power of

the tongue, and those who love it
will eat its fruit.”
Proverbs 18:21
WORDS ARE POWERFUL
 The impact our
words have on
others cannot be
overstated.

Their effect on
our lives, even
years later, is
undeniable.
One small comment
or remark can make
the difference
between building a
relationship up or
tearing it down.
 We have the power to
encourage or destroy others
with our speech.
“A soft answer
turns away
wrath , but a
harsh word stirs
up anger.”
Proverbs 15:1
“Pleasant words are
like honeycomb,
sweetness to the
soul and health to
the bones.”
Proverbs 16:24
“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but
only such as is good for building up, as it fits the
occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.”
Ephesians 4:9
“But I say to you that for
every idle word men may
speak; they will give
account of it on the day
of judgment. For by your
words you will be
justified, and by your
words you will be
condemned.
Matthew 12:36-37
A kind-positive or encouraging word at the
right time can truly be life-changing.
Your words hold the power to breathe an
attitude of death or life into others ---
WHICH WILL YOU CHOOSE?
Let us strive to remember the
power of our words and their
impact on those who hear them.

Think twice before making a

negative statement, and instead,
find a way to pass along an
encouraging word today.
