227. What Are You Declaring?
In Episode 227, Caroline challenges you with the question, “What are you declaring?” She emphasizes the importance of speaking life instead of death, reminding us that our words hold power. This episode is a compelling call to take responsibility for our words and observe how they shape our worlds!
Bible Verses:
Proverbs 18:21 “The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”
Matthew 12:34 “You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.”
Hebrews 5:12-14 “For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the oracles of God. You need milk, not solid food, 13 for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. 14 But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.”
Psalm 23:1 “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.”
