‘You are nobody and nobody knows you’
My hand was numb and felt stuck to the
phone. Like a poisoned arrowhead, the words were delivered without remorse. She
hung up and the coldness of the poison began to descend.
Life is a game of words. What you let
stay, stays. What you don’t agree with, doesn’t stay.
Death and life are in the power of the
tongue: and they that
love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Proverbs
18:21
Lies, lies and lies. Then I spoke...
‘I am Somebody’
‘God knows me’
That’s what
matters....case closed.
That’s what happens when
the enemy gets into your head, he plants lies and begins to water them. The publishing agent was
trying hard to get me to commit but friend, she did it the wrong way!
During the conversation, she said she was concerned. Concerned?Really! An odd way of showing it.
Many people don’t realize the potency of their words. We can show
grace to those who hurt us with their words when we remember it is the best
they have got. If they knew any better they would have given it.

of us are scared to speak. We are afraid our words would fall to the ground. The
Word of God never falls to the ground. You make it of none effect when you don’t
believe it. Let the faith in your heart push you to decree over that circumstance.

not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith
shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Mark 11:23
