The Power of Words

we

The way we speak and the words we choose have a tremendous effect upon our spirit. 

Each word you speak has an energetic resonance that attracts its equivalent and creates a form that corresponds to its vibration. 

“The one who guards his mouth preserves his life; The one who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.” Proverbs 13:3  

Most of us have a running internal dialogue with ourselves; our internal voices give us direction. Many psychologists believe that it takes up to seventeen positive statements to offset one negative statement. We reinforce our programming with our internal dialogue. We can use our words to curse our life; we can use our words to bless our life.

“From the fruit of a man's mouth he enjoys good, But the desire of the treacherous is violence.” Proverbs 13:2

Negative thoughts don’t need to become negative words. Whenever we speak our thoughts out loud, the vibrational level of our thoughts change. 

An interesting experimental study, much like Masaru Emoto’s work with water crystals, gives visual proof of the power and impact of our words. This particular study, by Doreen and Grant Virtue, found then whenever spiritual or loving positive words were spoken, pleasant, round shapes were produced on a graph, and rose above the middle base line. Likewise, whenever negative words were spoken, sharp, pointy, angular shapes were produced on a graph, and fell below the middle base line. This experimental study provides additional preliminary proof that someone who talks negatively, does indeed, have an energetically “sharp tongue.”

When we speak, we give life to our thoughts. Our words become self-fulfilling prophecies; we prophesize our future by the words we speak in the present. We are the co-creators of our own experiences; we receive what we speak. It’s better to say nothing at all, than to say something negative. 

“The one who guards his mouth preserves his life; The one who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.” Proverbs 13:3

Here’s a short list of some commonly used negative words, which when used, negate our ability to successfully be our “highest selves.”

But: Negates any words that are stated before it.
Try: Presupposes failure. If we "try" to do something, we give our unconscious mind permission not to succeed. We will reap many benefits by removing the word "try" from our vocabulary.
If: Presupposes that we may not.
Might: It does nothing definite. It leaves options for your listener..
Would Have: draws attention to things that didn't actually happen.
Should Have: draws attention to things that didn't actually happen (and implies guilt.)
Could Have: draws attention to things that didn't actually happen but the person tries to take credit as if it did happen.
Can't/Don't: forces listeners to focus on the opposite of what we say. (cew 12:37

So it is, sealed in trust, faith and truth, in the Sacred Divine Light.
