Book Review: The Power of the Spoken Word
Who would think a book of nine chapters could be capable of such actionable, thought provoking truth?
Well, that’s what you get with Florence Shinn’s, ‘The Power of the Spoken Word’.
I’ll share with you some excerpts that spoke to me:
Resentment and intolerance rob man of his power. Watch your thoughts! Watch your words! Let us direct it to heal, bless, and prosper and direct it in waves of good to the whole world.
Your only enemies are within yourself.
Many people are using personal-power instead of God power, which always brings unhappy reaction. Personal power means forcing personal will.
The only person to change is yourself. As you change, all the conditions around you will change! People will change!
People make their worst mistakes by speaking while they are angry or resentful…
Feel rich, and you attract riches. Feel successful and you become successful.
Praying is telephoning to God, and intuition is God telephoning to you.
When you are undisturbed by a situation it falls away of its own weight.
This book, for me, has broken Biblical principles down to a more palatable and understandable way, to implement. For that alone it is a staple on my nightstand.
The Power of the Spoken Word, when understood and implemented would benefit anyone in any season of their life.
