The Lord Jesus was a master of words; He had, and
spoke, wisdom all the time. He was wisdom
personified. He knew exactly the right words to say in every
situation, to everyone, and concerning everything. His words
were filled with inspiration, healing, comfort, hope, love, and
power. He had words for everything.
Imagine what transpired in Luke 7:11-17. He was on
a journey to the city of Nain, and as He arrived at the gate
of the City, He saw a funeral procession of a young man,
who happened to be the only son of a widow. Moved with
compassion, He touched the casket and said, “…Young man, I
say unto thee, Arise. And he that was dead sat up, and began
to speak. And he delivered him to his mother” (Luke 7:13-15).
He raised the dead body of that young man back to life with
words!
Once, His disciples were startled amidst a raging
tempest. Terrified, they cried out to Him, “…Master, carest
thou not that we perish?” (Mark 4:38). What He did was
remarkable: “…he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said
unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there
was a great calm” (Mark 4:39). It made no difference how
turbulent or tempestuous the weather was, Jesus hushed it
with words—the same way He healed and restored sight to
blind eyes, hearing to deaf ears, and vitality to maimed limbs.
However, He reveals to us an important truth: the
words He spoke came from the Father. He said in John 12:50,
“…whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto

me, so I speak.” It’s the same with us today. The Father has
given us words to speak; we don’t, and shouldn’t, speak our
own words, or words that we learnt from our neighbours or
environment! We learn words from the Word of God; we get
our spiritual vocabulary from the Word of God. That’s why
you have to keep studying the Scriptures (2 Timothy 2:15).
The result is that you’ll think and talk like Jesus, and
have His kind of extraordinary results! You’ll become a master
of words, speaking wisdom all the time.
CONFESSION
My words are spirit, and life,
infused with power and divine
energy to prevail over
circumstances. The words of
Christ dwell in me richly, in all
wisdom; therefore, my words are
filled with inspiration, healing,
comfort, hope, love, and power,
in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
