Hi and welcome back to the Word Power
Podcast. This is Michael Duver,
and I got a few verses for you
here. This will be a short one today,
and I got a cool testimony from my
cousin. I'll play here.
One of the things I was looking at,
here's a couple of refresher verses for you.
Proverbs 2123
says, whosoever
keeps his mouth
and his tongue
keeps his soul from trouble.
Proverbs
6262,
thou art snared with the words of thy
mouth. Thou art taken
with the words
of thy mouth.
It's like the words are words is like
we're being pulled,
Like we have a bit and a bridle.
And that goes, there's a verse here. It
says,
in Psalm 329,
be not as the horse or as the
mule,
which have no understanding
whose mouth must be held with a bit
and bridle.
Here's another one. Proverbs 18:21,
death and life are in the power of
the tongue.
Not in the power of the devil, not
in the power of God, but in the
power of the tongue. And that's why the
devil
is liking you to talk wrong.
Okay. And I got a little note here
to admonish you to stop letting the devil
use our tongues
to defeat ourselves.
Stop letting the devil use our tongue
to defeat ourselves. Well, how do we do
how do we do that? Well,
I was watching, for example, I was watching
TV
the other night. And the the commercial comes
on and says, you know, when your
car breaks down,
okay, or your diabetes, you gotta control your
diabetes. Well, I just spoke back. Those are
audible words spoken by somebody somewhere.
And that's coming through my TV. And I
just I just looked at the TV. I
said, no. I cancel your words in Jesus
name.
I break the power. I won't have diabetes.
And my car will not get in an
accident. I mean, I'm just like getting angry
at the TV.
See here, Proverbs see that's like a fiery
dart aimed at us. Right? The fiery darts
of the wicked one are aimed at our
tongue.
Okay?
Right? And James says the tongue is a
world of iniquity set on fire of hell
and sets into motion the wheels of life.
So when I when somebody speaks that to
me,
right, even from the TV, I would say,
oh, that's just an audio a recorded audio.
Yeah. Well, it's being spoken
at me.
Here Proverbs 13:3, he that keeps his mouth
keeps his life,
but he that opens wide his lips shall
have destruction.
Or he who guards his mouth keeps his
life.
I like this one. Proverbs 16 23. The
heart of the wise
teaches his mouth
and adds learning
to his lips. So that's what I'm helping
you do is change the way you talk.
Okay.
Talk like God talks. What is what how
does God talk? I do not want.
I shall not want. What does the world
say? I want. They want. I want. They
want. I don't want anymore.
There's a, a song
that we we sung in Canada,
and it's, based on Psalm 50 verse 23.
It says, whoso offerth praise, glorifies
me, and to him that orders his conversation
aright will I show the salvation
of God.
And salvation
salvation,
I said it in the other episode,
is from the Hebrew word Yesha
or
and it means
liberty, deliverance, prosperity,
safety, salvation, saving,
aid,
victory,
confession with our mouth is made unto salvation.
It's made unto
victory.
Okay. There it is. Yeah. Proverbs 18/21.
Death and life are in the power of
the tongue
and they that love it
shall eat the fruit thereof.
And this verse in Isaiah
5719,
God's talking. He says, I create
the fruit of the lips.
Now this one was an eye opener here.
Job, remember Job
lost everything. He got the boils, he sat,
but he got double at the end.
So afterwards, so is Job chapter 624. It
says he's talking to God and he said
teach me
and I will hold my tongue
and cause me
to understand
where I have
erred. Where I've gone wrong.
Job 6:30,
is there wrong on my tongue? Cannot my
taste
discern
what is destructive,
and then, wow this one is pretty wild.
Okay Psalms 30,
39:1.
It says,
I said I will take heed to my
ways that I sin not with my tongue.
I will keep my mouth with a bridle
while the wicked is ever before me. Well
who's the wicked? It's the devil.
Right? They are waiting. Devils are waiting on
your mouth
to listen. They're listening to what you say
so that they can just ride on into
your life
and create havoc
and create death.
What I'm exposing
here a lot, and there's other words I
haven't gotten to yet.
So you have to tune in. Subscribe to
this podcast,
and if you like to buy my book,
you can go to my website, I shall
not want.com.
There's, you can watch my TV interviews and
see some
live videotaped
testimonies.
Then I'm gonna play my cousin here in
a second.
But the devil is,
he's trying to deceive and distract us.
So to get us to talk wrong.
And what I'm exposing is this word want
which has that one definition.
Poverty, lack, and destitution.
So you're going to hear a testimony
of that. And back on that one note,
when somebody says they want something,
they are saying that they're impoverished of it.
Right? That takes precedent
when things are out of our control and
out of our dominion.
That's when our words are more powerful. Not
just like getting a coffee. Right? Do you
want a coffee? Or I want to tell
you something.
Okay.
And
if I said I want to tell you
something, I can proceed to tell you something.
Okay.
And you know, if I if you're asking
me if I want a coffee, and you
can just go walk over and get a
coffee for me. Right? And that's why when
when God showed me this, I was so
angry. Again, I'm repeating myself, but that's okay.
You have to hear this over and over
because nobody else I've heard is talking like
this. And it's like I pulled the plug
out of the wall of the power
the power cord that I was given to
the devil. So again, I would go to
McDonald's or any fast food or whatever restaurant,
and they say, sir, do you want do
you want fries
with that? And I would say,
no. Give me the fries.
I don't teach this to everybody or run
into.
You know, if I'm at the grocery
store and they say, sir do you want
paper or plastic? And I'll say, I won't
even answer that with a yes or no.
I'll just say, give me the plastic.
Okay. I didn't answer that with a yes
or no. I know that I'm just adamant
about this because I see how this works
and
It's just powerful.
Alright. Well, I'm gonna introduce my cousin here
and
it was a pre recorded call,
that I did earlier today. So here it
is. I've got my cousin Lisa on the
phone from Florida,
and
she has a testimony about her husband
and the job that he's in.
So
how shall we where should we start?
I've got
I've got you on speaker phone. So
Oh,
no. My husband
for 5 years walked around saying I do
not want that job because it was so
stressful. It was his boss's job,
and
he never
desired it,
at the time.
And he said it over and over and
over, and then eventually
they came to him and said, would you
be willing to do this job? It's between
you and another person.
And,
he thought about it
and
took some time and said, okay. I will.
I'll do
it. After 5 years of saying he did
not want it. He does not want it.
Now he didn't he doesn't know about my
book. He doesn't know about the word want.
But he's just talking like everybody else talks
in this world, and thinking that want means
desire.
And he's thinking he's saying he doesn't desire
that job. So he was working at that
company. Right?
Right. Okay.
It was his boss's job, basically, and Mhmm.
And he kept on saying, you know, seeing
how stressful he was,
in in his job, and it's it's a
big company. So he said, I don't want
oh, that's great. So
so it was 5 years he just randomly
say he does not want that job.
Mhmm. That's great. And then eventually, it was
and then they eventually, they came to him
and and and said, think about it. Your
boss is is retiring.
You know?
What do you think? And
and he thought about it, and and he
said, okay. So Oh, that's great. Yeah. That's
great. Well, this is an example of of
what people
speak out there.
They're saying
they don't want something and then they they
think they're saying they don't desire it, and
then that thing comes to them. So this
took 5 years
for him to,
for that door to open, but it it
eventually opened in the way that his words
were speaking. So cool Lisa.
Thank you dear. Love you. Talk to you
later. Yep. That is a great testimony. She
told that to me a little while ago
and I go, I gotta get you on
I gotta get you on my podcast
When I created it, you know, it's interesting
too about this podcast.
I knew I had a desire to start
this podcast.
I bought this mic
about
2 years ago with the boom, and I
haven't started. So I started saying, I don't
want
to
I don't want to start this podcast. I
don't want to start this podcast.
And
it took a while,
but I just kept at it. Finally, I
hired Sam
because it was just so complex to start
this, and he helped me just like baby
steps. It was great.
Well, listen. Thanks for tuning in today. I'm
glad you tuned in and listened.
