fitbyfaithlogoWords are powerful…

Definition of Frustrated:   defeated, to make worthless
Definition of Discouraged:  to deprive of courage, hope and confidence
Definition of Try:   to attempt without commitment
Definition of Can’t:   denial or refusal to be able to have the power, ability and skill to do something.

So those are the words I hear out of mouths of students every day.  When you speak those words, you are saying you are a defeated person who has deprived yourself of courage, hope and confidence who only attempts things without commitment and denies or refuses to use your ability to have the power, ability and skill to do something.  Wow.  Our words are powerful and when you say the above words, you are setting yourself up for failure and it is all your own doing.

Now how about replacing those words above with these:

  • Definition of Victory:  successful, conquering and triumphant
  • Definition of Encouraged:  inspired with courage, spirit and confidence
  • Definition of Will:  to do something with commitment, that is expected and required.
  • Definition of Can:  to have the power, ability and skill to do something.

Now when you speak those words about yourself, you are saying you are a successful, conquering and triumphant person who is inspired with courage, spirit and confidence who does things with commitment and has the power, ability and skill to do anything!   WHOOHOO!  Now THAT is what I want to speak over myself everyday!  How can you fail with words like that spoken over yourself?

Pray this blesses you today!
