In this sermon, Jeremiah Tipton warns believers about the spiritual and practical consequences of their speech. He describes two problematic attitudes: a careless indifference that treats words as inconsequential, and an over‑cautious superstition that fears every utterance. Tipton asserts that the Bible clearly teaches that words have real power. He explains that spoken words act like code for the mind, shaping thought patterns, attitudes, and even physical health. Because our mindset influences bodily well‑being, careless or negative speech can harm us. Moreover, our words affect the thoughts and emotions of those around us, so we must exercise self‑control and speak responsibly.

Chapters

There are some believers who think that the words they speak don't really matter at all. I'm just saying what I say. It's just how I am. No big deal. You'll get over it. That's not godly. That's immaturity. Or they'll say, well, I just tell it like it is. Not really. You tell it like you see it, and there's not really that self-control that allows you to know when and when not to speak. But then on the other end of the spectrum, we have believers who are so paranoid about their words that they become a a little superstitious with it. I have a little headache, it might be allergies. Don't speak that into existence. Now I want to say that yes, the words you speak can bring about actual results. The Bible is very clear about it. So you continue to speak negatively, yes, that can affect your health because it affects the way you think. Like program for a computer, words are for the mind. So the words that you speak program certain thought processes, certain, certain patterns And, and those patterns affect everything about you. Your attitude, your mindset can actually affect your physical health. And so be careful of the words you speak, because not only do they program your own mind, they influence the minds of those around you.
