Your WORDS are so important.
This little book is worth reading everyday.

“Your WORDS are so important. You need to realize that. They set the boundaries of your life. You will never realize anything beyond the words you speak. You will never have anything beyond your own words.” P. 18

If you ever see a book written by Dr. Hagin just buy it. It will bless you. This book has become one of my favorites. It’s a quick powerful read packed with bullet points and revelation.

Finished this in SURFF today! As small as this book can be, it actually contains life-changing and profound wisdom from above. It's such a short but powerful book. Brother Hagin reminded me again the power of the words I say day to day. Mark 11:23 he shall have whatever he saith. Now when I think about it, whatever I have today was a result of what I have said about 5 years ago...good or bad. It's the same with the lives of people around me. They all seem to have what they have said. This means I can have what I say in about five years time and I am only going to say the good things I want to see happen.

The Lord is so SO loving and protective because this little pamphlet came in right on TIME.
Jesus said, "I will be with you always" (Matt. 28:20). I believe if He is with me, that's success.
The Bible says in Romans 8:31, "If God be for us, who can be against us?" Oh, glory to God, if He is for us, what difference does it make who's against us? What difference does it make what the devil's doing out in the world? God is for us! He is on OUR side
In First John 4:4 it says, "Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." What do you care what you face if the GREATER ONE is in you?
This is a book I will be reading over and over again.
For the Lord and His kingdom— I will remain diligent and devoted to protecting my environment, my eyes, my ears and my mind.

Thanks so very much Pastor Hagin for this awesome book. It spoke reality’s to my life and what I speak on a daily basis. Thanks for teaching I have what I say, good or bad has an effect on my life in the future. By speaking things from my pass is where I am in my life right now. This is a wake call for me to speak better things and extravagant things I can’t fathom into my life because nothing is too hard for GOD! I would recommend this book to parents, teachers, pastors and anyone who wants to speak life and health to themselves or family. I gave this book five stars because it’s life changing in Jesus’ name 👏👏🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️🙌🙌👍👍 Thank you!

WORDS…WORDS…WORDS
They either make us or break us. They heal us or make us sick. Words bless us or curse us. Learn to speak the right words over your life and your family lives. We must learn to stop speaking fear, sickness, worry and disappointment and start speaking health, winning and defeat.
Mr. Hagin made a great point that was told to him by a doctor(s). Worrying will kill you. There are more people in the grave who have died because of worrying than any other cause of death.
The words we speak identify us, set the boundaries of our lives and affect our spirit.
Learn to speak life..and not death.

Watch Your Words
I am a big fan of Kenneth Hagin books. This book is no exception. In this book, the author explains the importance of your words. We should speak according to what the Bible says about our situation and identity. Too many times, we are saying things which may be true but does not match with what the Bible says and this cancels our prayer requests. You can’t expect God to do much in your life if you are always saying things contrary to his word. This is a small read but very powerful. I recommend all to add this to their spiritual library.

Ok
The use of scripture was great for me personally. I also like the direct delivery. I gave it 3 because I find it hard to relate to authors who present themselves as perfect, with perfect children and a perfect spouse. However, I would still recommend this book as a quick read for scriptures and encouragement to build true faith through our words, and learning scriptures that teach us their importance.

"فالاولاد لا ينشئون في جو الكنيسة والاجتماعات الروحية، بل ينشئون في جو المنزل."
"هكذا تري, عندما تأتي الي الامور الروحية, يكون الناس بوجهين. لديهم وجه يلبسونه يوم الاحد, ووجه آخر يلبسونه باقي الايام"

100% true
This book has helped me understand how powerful my words are..... 2ndly it has let me see the truth in myself and enabled me to acknowledge how much, I have become an enemy of myself through the words I speak every single day, especially among family and friends and strangers also while reading. Therefore, I have decided to change how to speak to myself the most in front of others with my words. So I will recommend it to others.

Amazing and challenging!
I really enjoyed this book. Pastor Hagin used scriptures to solidify why the words we say are important and being steadfast in faith. It challenges me to be mindful about what comes out of my mouth and thoughts. I would recommend to anyone I think would value reading it.

Thought Provoking!
This book is for anyone who needs to challenge and change the way you speak. It made me remember all the confessions from even the past 24 hours that I'd spoken over myself that did not align with what I truly want to see happen in my life. Grab some note cards, you'll need them!

My God, This was Good
This book was short but powerful. I can now see how I am loving in the fruit of my own bad words. This book gave me faith that if I change my speech I can indeed change my life! I look forward to new fruit in my home, marriage, children, business, health, finances, friendships, and etc. God is doing a NEW thing!

Course correcting impact on my life
I recommend this book for anyone wondering why so many things are either going wrong or not working out in their life. It's a great reminder to guard your lips and only speak life into your situations and circumstances. It was also a very easy short read.

Straight truth
Throughly enjoyed this book. Brought a fresh understanding to the confession I make over myself daily which isn't always positive. Knowledge leads to freedom, the truth itself will set you free. Have a read :)

Amazing g
Your WORDS determine what you will have in life. There was an Ouch & amen moment when he talked about double confessions. Don't say God will do it then say I don't know if we will make it.

Short but a heart filled
Plenty of truth was spoken and a refresher to know that I’m living what I speak. True believer that the Word works when you work the Word. Speak life without the defeat mentality. God word overcomes self doubt

Helpful book
I love the way Kenneth Hagin keeps His books short, concise and to the point. This is a powerful teaching about the words we speak: well worth reading and putting into practice.

To the Point
An easy read with bare biblical facts instructing, with supportive material, and encouraging to strengthen the weakened will to do what is necessary to acquire that for which we believe.

Short & Powerful!
This book was a short read and so powerful. It broke down how powerful our words are. After reading this everyone should be careful of the words they speak over their lives and others positive and negative they will definitely manifest. I would recommend.

I am beyond proud that such a short read has sparked something new in my heart and mind concerning my speech and the things of God. Life won’t be the same after this. I shall have what I say.

Needed Reminder
I’ve been feeling isolated and lonely lately. It’s made me spiral into some negative self talk. This book has inspired me to “fight.” WORDS are powerful and I will practice speaking victory over my life. God is doing something!

Quick and powerful like a two-edged sword.
This was a powerful read and insight to great importance of the words that come out of our mouths and the intentionality we must have with every word spoken. Phenomenal book, I highly recommend.
