Words: Dad & Daughter’s Declarations

Recently I’ve been thinking a lot about the power of words.   I don’t mean the ‘mind-over-matter’ way of self-talk.  I’ve been thinking about how the words spoken by Jesus and revealed by Holy Spirit are filled with life (see posts).  When we align ourselves with the truths of God and verbalise what he has already declared, the life-giving substance within the idea is released through the spoken word.

The below video has been trending lately and I really like it.  The benefit of this routine is, I think, more than just an inspirational habit.  The Dad is teaching his daughter how to stand in Truth, which will create foundations upon which she can stand when she’ll have to battle against lies as she gets older.  If she continues in these truths, she can provide a source of strength for others to learn how to stand in the life-giving promises of who God has created them to be.
