The Power of Spoken Words
Have you ever pondered on these powerful scriptures?
The Beginning
Genesis 1:1-4
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.
What supernatural power does God not hold in his spoken words?!
Imagine having the power to speak things into being. The power to create something out of nothing. The power to bring light into a dark environment and, the supernatural power to separate light from the darkness.
As you go through the lyrics of this amazing worship song, look at the supernatural activity that took place as God spoke…
So Will I (100 Billion X)
There at the start
Before the beginning of time
With no point of reference
You spoke to the dark
And fleshed out the wonder of light
A hundred billion galaxies are born
In the vapor of Your breath the planets form
If the stars were made to worship so will I
I can see Your heart in everything You’ve made
Every burning star
A signal fire of grace
If creation sings Your praises so will I
You don’t speak in vain
No syllable empty or void
For once You have spoken
All nature and science
Follow the sound of Your voice
A hundred billion creatures catch Your breath
Evolving in pursuit of what You said
If it all reveals Your nature so will I
I can see Your heart in everything You say
Every painted sky
A canvas of Your grace
If creation still obeys You so will I
So will I
So will I
If the mountains bow in reverence so will I
If the oceans roar Your greatness so will I
For if everything exists to lift You high so will I
If the wind goes where You send it so will I
If the rocks cry out in silence so will I
If the sum of all our praises still falls shy
Then we’ll sing again a hundred billion times
You chased down my heart
Through all of my failure and pride
On a hill You created
The light of the world
Abandoned in darkness to die
A hundred billion failures disappear
Where You lost Your life so I could find it here
If You left the grave behind You so will I
I can see Your heart in everything You’ve done
Every part designed in a work of art called love
If You gladly chose surrender so will I
I can see Your heart
Eight billion different ways
Every precious one
A child You died to save
If You gave Your life to love them so will I
But what measure could amount to Your desire
You’re the One who never leaves the one behind
You have the keys to unleash the power of life and death into your world.
The incredible truth is you already have the authority to rule and reign on earth. However, as a Christian, you have the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit operating within you to conquer darkness and perform all kinds of fantastic miracles.
God’s Word clearly states:
- We have been created in God’s image, with God-given authority to rule and reign on earth. Genesis 1:26-28
- The same Spirit of God, that raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. Romans 8:11
God’s desire is for you to live a victorious life and He has given you everything you need in Christ to overcome this world.
God’s Word spoken turns your battles into victories.
He loves you so much that He has given you the authority and power to be able to declare His word over your life and change the terrible situations you are facing into supernatural success stories.
As you speak God’s Word into your challenges, both the spiritual and physical worlds shift and align to bring about your victories.
- the blind see,
- you see opportunities in adversity.
- the lame walk,
- you are able to get up and not give up.
- the lepers are cleansed,
- your outlook on life clears as you start to replace lies and shame, with truth and confidence.
- the deaf hear,
- as you start to tune into God’s voice and follow it, your victories outweigh your losses.
- the dead are raised,
- what you thought was a lost cause, is given new life.
- the poor have the gospel preached to them,
- as you share and release the Word of God, battles turn into victories for you and others.
A Quick Summary.
- Find your “Power Scriptures”.
- Start to declare them over your life and into your situations.
- Be fully persuaded that God will do what He promised in His Word.
And, remember as Corrie Ten Boom once said, Jesus did it. The Bible says it. I believe it. And that settles it.
