1 Thessalonians 5:11 NLT
So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.
Be the person who lifts and helps others know they are special. Our words, kindness and encouragement make a difference.
Words can be used to hurt or help. Often the right words at the right time can can bring healing. Speak life and strength over the people that mean the most to you. That is a choice I want to make, family and friends and even people I don’t know. Take the opportunity to build up and not to tear down. Choose words that bring courage.
A song has stood out to me for a while. It speaks in to my life. Speak the name of Jesus over people and situations. Speak Jesus over addiction, over fear and anxiety, over darkness and the enemy. Why? Jesus wins. Let our words give life.
I just want to speak the Name of Jesus
Over every heart and every mind
I know there is peace within Your presence
I speak Jesus
I just want to speak the Name of Jesus
‘Til every dark addiction starts to break
Declaring there is hope and there is freedom
I speak Jesus
Your name is power, Your name is healing
Your name is life. Break every stronghold
Shine through the shadows, Burn like a fire
I just want to speak the Name of Jesus
Over fear and all anxiety
To every soul held captive by depression
I speak Jesus
Shout Jesus from the mountains
And Jesus in the streets
Jesus in the darkness over every enemy
Jesus for my family
I speak the holy name
Jesus
