Words We Say By Brenda Bonogofsky

05 Feb Words We Say By Brenda Bonogofsky

Posted at 02:40h in Brenda Bonogofsky by

Lately I have been thinking about the words I say about myself.  A few weeks ago, I had a TV interview and I was so nervous and scared as I have never done anything like that.  After my interview I realized I had been telling myself ‘you’re not a public speaker.  You can’t speak clearly and all you do is stumble on your words.  People are not going to take you seriously.’

How about you?  Do you think and speak negatively about yourself?

Thinking back, I remembered a class I took in college on the Power of Our Words.  In this class we learned that our bodies are made up of 65% water and that water absorbs and stores sound effects.  Japanese scientist and healer, Masaru Emoto, studied how water would freeze while playing different types of music.  He found that when you played Heavy Metal music, it looked horrible.  If he played Amazing Grace, it was beautiful.  When he spoke negative words, it looked bad and when he spoke encouraging words, it was gorgeous.

So, if our bodies are made of up 65% water, when we speak negatively to ourselves or someone else, it affects our bodies.  I once heard about a lady who had a fever.   She went to the doctor, but he found nothing wrong and did not why she had a fever.  She was sent to another doctor who noticed she often said, ‘that burns me up.’  She did not know why she said it, so. He told her to stop saying it for 2 weeks.  Her fever went away.

What are we doing to ourselves?  It is time for us to stop speaking negatively and time to speak what God says about us.

The song “Who You Say I Am “by Hillsong came to my mind.  As I listen to this song, I remember I am stronger than I think I am. And so are you!

The Bible says this about who we are:

  • I am a child of God (John 1:12)
  • I am more than a conqueror through Christ, who loves me (Romans 8:37)
  • I am victorious through Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:57)
  • I am capable (Philippians 4:13).

We are all these things and so much more.

I want to encourage you to really take time to think on what you say to others and about yourself.  I for one am going to start saying ‘I can do this’ and stop saying, ‘I can’t.’  I am going to look myself in the mirror and say ‘you got this!’  God only asks us to do something because He has provided the way to do it.

How about you?  What can you say to make a positive impact in your life?
