Winning in Life: The Power of Spoken Words

Spread the Message

Today’s Meditation:
Jude 1:9 AMPC
[9] But when [even] the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, judicially argued (disputed) about the body of Moses, he dared not [presume to] bring an abusive condemnation against him, but [simply] said, The Lord rebuke you!

Reflection:
Over the past few weeks, we have explored different dimensions by which the power of God is activated in our lives. In our last nugget, we discussed how the Word of God can create beauty out of nothing, just as Abraham and Prophet Ezekiel demonstrated. Today, we shift our focus to another critical aspect—using the power of words in spiritual warfare against opposing thoughts, forces, and ideologies.

Sometimes, we are confronted with situations that feel like strongholds—persistent fears, deceptive fantasies, or attitudes that stand in defiance of God’s truth over our lives. However, Scripture teaches that we can demolish these strongholds and take every thought captive through the spoken Word of God (2 Corinthians 10:4-5).

Encouragement:
When the archangel Michael was confronted by Satan over the body of Moses, he did not waste time arguing with the fallen cherub. Instead, he engaged the power of God’s Word, declaring, “The Lord rebuke you!”—and that was enough to silence the enemy.

In the same way, stop allowing fear, anxiety, and intimidation to take hold of your mind and spirit. Do not permit yourself to be disturbed, unsettled, or overwhelmed by the enemy’s lies. Instead, engage the ministry of the Word of God against every negative thought, nightmare, emotion, or oppression. Speak with boldness, declare your victory in Christ, and watch the power of God flow into your life for total breakthrough this year.
