Hey you, yeah you sitting behind the screen reading this. I want you to know that you are beautiful/handsome just the way you are and don't doubt a thing about God because he can do anything, God is always with you god bless. And have a great day!. 😘
I LOVE THIS SONG. I'm only 11 and one time I had this dream and a dark mean shadow came into the room I was in and this what I sead. IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIS LEAVE ME ALONE (something like that) and it left. And that's when I learned the true power of the name of Jesus 's name. never forgot that dream from that day on 😁☺😊
+CoolgrlGamer Kimura Just because your delusional Religiously tainted mind tells you in your sleep that Jesus' name drives away things which obviously don't exist, doesn't mean the name has any actual power. Use your brain, it's simple logic.
+WIGEEMAN99 Just because you don't believe something doesn't mean you have to put it down. This kid said he was 11. No need to get mean. I have no idea how old you are or what you believe, but nothing gives you an excuse to be mean to a kid, or anybody, actually. So if you ever want to get anywhere in life, you should probably be polite. It's simple logic, really.
Jo Picconatto It's not about beliefs, it's about fact. I'm 16, and there can be excuses to be "mean" to people, what a stupid thing to say. Don't defend him, he needs to learn before it's too late. If I was truly trying to be mean, you would notice the difference. Being polite to absolutely everyone will make you nothing more than a doormat, and you will get nowhere in life. It's simple logic.
+WIGEEMAN99 Being polite to everyone and doing Everything everyone says are two completely different things. If I did everything everyone said to me I wouldn't have a life. If I were polite to everyone(I'm not always, I'm not perfect), most people are polite back. Not all people, but there are jerks everywhere. The point is, you have to be careful what you say and do. That IS the whole point of the song...words can build you up or tear you down, and personally I think it's a lot better to use them to build people up. I completely agree that there are some people who deserved to be yelled at and who we feel like we should be mean to, but (here comes the "preachy part") God says that we should a) love ( love meaning be nice to) others b) do unto others as we would have them do unto us, and c) to love (also meant as be kind to)our enemies. You don't have to be a Christian to follow these instructions, they just truly make life better. I'm not so naive as to think that you're just going to say "Oh, ok, I'm gonna be nice all the time and love all my enemies" because I don't love them all either, far from it. Just be careful what you say, because words leave a mark.
You don't have to do everything everyone says to be a doormat, as communication and persuasion/conversation often neglects physical action. Not everyone who shows signs of being impolite at times is a jerk, and what you say is true about no one being perfect. Thus, why on Earth are you starting an argument over this? It's illogical. Of course I'm careful about what I say, that's how I get on in life. In this scenario, I did not need to be careful at all, because a juvenile young boy was showing signs of becoming brainwashed. It is only instinctual as a human being to want to save him before it is too late. Stop relating this to the bigger picture, it doesn't aid your cause in the slightest, because this isn't a big thing, you are making it one. It doesn't matter to me what God says, I follow my own rules and principles in life, and I get by just fine. This poor young boy is going to grow up with ridiculous ideas about a necessary being which is supposedly the creator of contingency. I don't want that to happen to anybody if I can help it, as an atheist. Words can leave a mark, and that was exactly my intention. It sounds a though he is on the wrong path, and I am here to set him straight. Don't worry about his mental well being, I am doing quite the opposite of corrupting him.
In the last month or so, I've been going through stuff, grandad dieing, bad grades in school, making my parents annoyed to say the least on the last one. But going through songs for Christ, they helped me and still are. Thank you Lord, and may he bless you all
God hasn't given up on you. I know how you must feel, for I, too, grew up with spiritual attacks of negativity from adults. For many years I suffered from low self esteem, fear and doubt. I thought that God hated me, because I wondered why God would allow adults to attack a child, who only wished to love and be loved. I now realize that without these experiences, I may not have been the person I am now. I say in humbleness, that I have a loving spirit. Robert, God loves you and so do I.
This was on the radio... and spoke a confirmation as i showered up! This was almost be verbatim... my prayer! Never heard this song until this day... 3/25/16 and it was right on time! Thanks Hawk! WoW I AM in awe of the great I AM! Burning Bush... that was not consumed... let the fire burn from within us... but not CONSUME anything but Death and Hell! Speak life over Death with the Power in our Tongue by the Holy Spirit of Abba.... in the might and Glory of Christ Jesus and the shedding of His blood for the remission of our sins.... that we now are promised Life Eternal. We long to be where He IS... and He longs for our Hearts to shine forth His Holy Light which is the Life of Men and Women! AMEN Thank you so much for being a vessel of His tender mercy and lovingkindness! Amen & AMen
U DUMB ASS CHRISTIANS CHATOLICS JEHOVAH WITNESS OR WHATEVER RELIGION U ARE DONT EVEN FOLLOW JESUS U CAN BELIEVE IN JESUS AND STILL BE RACIST IDGAF ABOUT JESUS IM LOSING FAITH EVERYDAY
This is so true! Our words have so much power so that we can encourage and help. But if we use them carelessly and selfishly, it can be so hurtful to others.
Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone. Colossians 4:6 Gentle words bring life and health, but a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit. proverbs 15:4 Kind words are like honey, sweet to the soul and healthy for the body. Proverbs 16:24 Wise words are like deep waters; wisdom flows from the wise like a bubbling brook. Proverbs 18:4 If anyone speaks, let them speak as if speaking the very words of God. 1 peter 4:11
For those listening after hearing that he doesn't believe in God, remember this: It's not about what he says in the lyrics in this song. It's about what you hear God telling you when you listen.
Who's here after hearing the sobering news? It just shows that no matter how glamorous, raving, or filled the auditorium is, if Christ is not your first love and centerpiece of your life, it will all burn up.
I think now more than ever the enemy wants to confuse and detach us from Jesus. We are in the beginning of the end and he wants to destroy our connection. But nothing can separate us from the love of him. It's up to us to continue the good race. We are almost home y'all. Focus on him. We're at the finish line. 🤗
My family’s going through Hell right now. But this time made me lean on God more. Trust in him more. And turn to him more. And I believe that if God heard my cries he will hear everyone’s in this comment section. So don’t be afraid to turn to your Father God. He’s listening. (Asher James Misner. Born May 9th, 2006.)
I've been through some tough stuff lately and this song really helped inspire me to do something good for the other students in my grade. Me and my friend went early to school and put kind notes on EVERYONES lockers. We just wanted to help brighten their day.

when words build you up it means that the words that your saying or someone else is saying means your showing your love to the lord and the words make you feel good like those words are making you stronger and when words break you down means those words are making you weaker or shows you still love he lord but someones saying something that makes you feel bad.
Lena Morrison Thank you for saying this! I looked it up and you are completly right. Thank you for giving me the oppurtunity to read and see the verses.
I was reminded of this song today. I was walking to work and was crossing an intersection on my turn when the driver in a car attempting to turn left (where I was crossing) started beeping his horn repeatedly and flipping me off. I could have shared some choice words with his about his behavior right back at him, but instead just shook my head and kept walking. His behavior reflected his heart in that moment, but I chose to act in a way that reflected my God.
I grew up listening to Christian music. When I heard this on the radio 5 years, it became my favorite song. But I forgot about it. Now that I found it again, it brings back so memories. I found this song during a hard time in my life, and now, I found it again when it's hard. God really can do amazing things.
I have to remind myself everyday to remember God's forgiveness. And to bestow it upon others. It seems impossible to let go and forgive those who have wronged you. This song is truly amazing. God bless and hope all is well.
Having such a powerful song about good words turning into destructive words of walking away from the faith. I hope you find God once again Jon, He's not done with you. Run back to the cross, life gets hard sometimes and doubts about God can too. The Bible says "narrow is the road that leads to life" I hope and pray you come back to Him, ever stronger in your faith.
"See, the day of the Lord is coming - a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger. . . . I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty. . . . Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses will be looted and their wives violated." (Isaiah 13:9-16 NIV)
Words hurt. They change lives. I hate the saying "sticks and stones break bones but words don't hurt." God loves you portray that in your words. No more hurt
Today I was in Maata Näkyvissä -festival and this song was just AWESOME and of course the rest of the songs!! You were the best performers throughout the festival! Thank you! I love you guys!!!!!
I am a Christian, but I totally agree with you in that there is so much passion in Christian music. My favorite secular music is ones with so much meaning and passion. Those make the best songs.
Lucy Schumann. Religion drags people to hell. Relationship changes lives. Do you really want to barter eternity? Test the gospel and research it;) Merry christmas God bless and goodnight😀
Don’t be fooled by religions, all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Some of us admit we are sinners and believe that God sent his Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins and raised him from the dead so that we might believe, and be forgiven. Others take issue with admitting that they have sinned, or that God is real, or that the word of God is true. They don’t want forgiveness because they’re still pleading their own innocence or claiming the judge won’t be there when they die. Jesus Christ and the works he did are the free gift of salvation and forgiveness, but you can’t give someone something that they don’t want. You have to realize who you are, and what you are, and humble yourself and seek forgiveness and salvation through what He did, rather than who you are. Seek and ye shall find. The gospel literally means ‘the good news’. Repent (show sorrow) and believe the gospel (good news).
My English teacher showed our class to this and i just fell in love with the song i had to write down the song so i can listen to it at home. OuO i luv dis
I dance with a Christian dance company and in summer when dance is out i LOVE to dance to k-love songs and is this one of the songs! Keep prasing Jesus,Lord Of Lords, Prince Of Peace
Music it helps you in the hardiest times. Sometimes music is the only thing that wants to hear you/not angry at you. If you are in any trouble just sing a song and it should give you what you need to get past what is going on. After that i hope you can get past it and may god be with you in that time. =)
I know I’m *a bit* late haha but this song is my favorite song right now... it’s so beautiful, I love it so much ♥️ plus now I think before I talk and look if my words are the sound of HIS praise. Thank u for this great song ♥️
They've made me feel like a prisoner They've made me feel set free They've made me feel like a criminal Made me feel like a king They've lifted my heart To places I'd never been And they've dragged me down Back to where I began Words can build you up Words can break you down Start a fire in your heart or Put it out Let my words be life Let my words be truth I don't wanna say a word Unless it points the world back to You You can heal the heartache Speak over the fear (Speak over the fear) God, Your voice is the only thing We need to hear (We need to hear) Words can build us up Words can break us down Start a fire in our hearts or Put it out Let my words be life Let my words be truth I don't wanna say a word Unless it points the world back to You (Back to You) Let the words I say (Let the words I say) Be the sound of Your grace (Sound like Your grace) I don't wanna say a word Unless it points the world back to You I wanna speak Your love Not just another noise Oh, I wanna be Your light I wanna be Your voice Let my words be life Let my words be truth I don't wanna say a word Unless it points the world back to You (Back to You) Let the words I say (Let the words I say) Be the sound of Your grace (Sound like Your grace) I don't wanna say a word Unless it points the world back to You (Back to You) Words can build us up Words can break us down Start a fire in our hearts Or put it out I don't wanna say a word Unless it points the world back to You
I love how this song is like a riddle in the beginning... Like you are trying to figure out what could tear you down but build you up. I think it's awesome
From my life experiences, passion (for anything) only comes from following Christ. Yes, people might enjoy and admire something else, but true passion. True Passion comes from God.
Word really can hurt, and they have power. Words are things you can remember your entire life, or they can even change who you are. Be wise in what you say to others. Or just in general. :D
GOOD IDEA. A kid who calls himself comfy mushroom had a dream and there was a ghost and he used the Lords name and it left and he gots lots of rude nasty comments
This is a very beautiful song!!!!! I love it! The bible tells us that pleasant words are like honey, and our conversations should always be full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that we may know how to answer everyone. God please help me!!! I don't want to say a word unless it points the world back to you.
MY PRAYER IN A SONG FOR THE WORLD TO TRY FOR ONE DAY TO SAY THE WORDS THAT LIFT THEM UP AND THE OTHERS AROUND THEM AND BRING THE THE JOY THE GOD WANTS FOR THEM DAILY .. AMEN
I love that they got Bart Millard from MercyMe to sing part of this song! It makes it that much better when two great artists collaborate to share God's love.
right now this is the best song to tell what is going on in my life . my this girl in my class used to be my best friend and now we r not and she has been saying really mean things and telling people stuff about me that is not true and when she started i turned to god asking for his help
Just listening to this song makes me imagine all that Jesus said while on earth, there wasn't a single word he said that didn't point the world back to God ^_^
