Epic Journey Podcast #24 – Words that Bear Fruit – Episode Notes

The more you study about words and the power of your words, you will start connecting the dots that your words are a reflection of your beliefs and of what you are accepting and receiving into your heart and mind.

Luke 6:45

The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

So, begin listening and hearing yourself and ask yourself about the power of your words.

Acknowledge the relationship with Christ as the origin, the WORD, the beginning.

Then realize how your words come from Gods’ truth into your heart, into your mind and then are an expression of what you believe and when spoken will have power to bring good things into your life.

If Christ dwells in you, then your words will be an expression of both grace and truth.

Psalm 19:14

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.

Psalm 49:3

My mouth shall speak wisdom; the meditation of my heart shall be understanding.

The goals of pleasing God, gaining wisdom, understanding each other….

These are great goals, and it is well worth the effort and patience you’ll need to just start the process of listening to your words and making the adjustments in your heart and mind that will help you tend to the garden, bear fruit, and speak life into each other.

The Word Became Flesh

1 John 1:1-5, 14

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Now verse 14

14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Strong’s concordance

1 John the root of the Word which you will see is capitalized in the scripture, is the Greek word logos, which has its origins in another word lego which means to lay forth, to relate, and then back to logos and it says this: something said (including the thought) by implying a topic, also reasoning (the mental faculty) or motive, and in John the Divine expression, i.e. Christ.

Mark 4:20

20 But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”

Romans 10:17

So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.

This is such a good reminder of the importance of hearing and listening and what it can lead to.

Our faith comes from hearing through the word of Christ.

Colossians 3:16

16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

Proverbs 15:23 that says, A person finds joy in giving an apt reply – and how good is a timely word.

Ephesians 4:29

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths but only what is helpful for building others up, according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.

Proverbs 16:24

24 Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body.

James 1: 19-20

My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.

Proverbs 13:3

Those who guard their lips preserve their lives, but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.

Romans 12:2

Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
