Words make all the difference in every situation.
The right words in a tense encounter can resolve even the most difficult feelings.
However, the wrong words in the same situation offer only more trouble.
Words like “I believe in you.”
I love you.
I am inspired by you.
You are a kind person.
You are a very smart person.
You have a lot of talent.
I am proud of you.
These words go a long way to help mold and shape a persons internal thoughts when they are heard from someone else.
The same goes for words like:
You are worthless.
Why do you always make terrible choices?
I don’t respect you.
I can’t believe you make such a stupid decision.
I hate you.
I am disappointed in you.
These words also shape and mold but in the wrong way.
A quick search on google for the most powerful words will return with these results:
Psychologically the most powerful words are “I Am.” Then how you finish that sentence dictates your self-belief.
In Leadership the most empowering words are “What do you think?” Simply because they validate the inherent ability and value of others.
For self-motivation - I can, Everything is doable.
For belief - the most powerful word is faith.
For relationship -How can I help you? I believe in you, and thank you.
For influence - Free, secret, Now, and breakthrough.
The words we hear and read are the difference makers in the way we feel about ourselves and others.
When others tell us words that are harsh we are repelled from them.
When we hear words that are encouraging we want to hear more from that person.
Words are such simple things but they make the biggest impact on how we live.

Some would say the most powerful words in teh Bible would be:
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
They would not be wrong in thinking they are some of the most powerful words.
Those words are life changing.
Those words are the words that will take you from a life bound by sin to a life freed by the Spirit of God.
Some might say that the most powerful words would be:
21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
These are the words we want to hear when it is all over.
These words are the culmination of a life lived through the difficulties of this world with triumph at the end.
We desire for the day we hear these words.
These words should keep us on the right path.
These words should shape our thinking when it comes to sin.
These are great words, that give us strength to keep going.
The most powerful words in the world are these:
…I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
This is the promise he gave to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
I will be with you.
This is the promise He gave to Moses and Joshua.
8 And the Lord, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
This promise is o powerful because it is not dependent on you or anyone elev but God.
It is His Word to us.
It is His vow to us.
This promise is not determined buy how good you have been or bad you have been.
These words are not from a man to a man but they are from God to man.
He will never leave us, He will never forsake us.
David had this promise from God as we find him writing about it:
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: If I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
His promise that He will never leave you is not determined by you or your actions.
His promise to you is not determined by others.
His promise to you is not determined by how faithful you have been.
His promise is not determined by how much you love Him.
His promise is not determined by how long you have known Him.
His promise is according to His faithfulness.
His love.
His righteousness.
His mercy.
His grace.
His blood that was shed for us.
The devil will tyr and convince you that you have gone to far and done too much.
Your own heart will try and convince you that you are not worthy of His mercy.
But God is greater than your heart.
He is greater than your thoughts.
He is greater than the devil.
He is greater than the world.
