When the wine was over during the wedding in Cana, Jesus transformed water into wine. When over five thousand men and others had come to hear Jesus speak and there were only five loaves and two fish, Jesus multiplied the food. When the disciples were overwhelmed by the storm, Jesus calmed the storm and in a moment the sea became still. Jesus spoke and situations and circumstances were transformed. Lame could walk, the tax collector and his household were saved, the Samaritan lady at the well was transformed and she became the reason for all people in her city to know the Lord Jesus Christ.

Declarations to Speak with Grace and Power
We either build relationships with words or let them fail when we do not speak correctly. This happens in our homes, at work, in business, in church and elsewhere. Jesus Christ our Lord and saviour knew when to speak, had great will power to remain silent when it was the best option. When Satan tried to entice him with sin quoting scripture, Jesus spoke with wisdom with power citing the appropriate context of the scripture.
7 Life-Transforming Benefits of a Pure Heart
The Bible gives great importance to the heart. We know the verse which urges us to guard our heart with all diligence. Some other versions of the Bible mention it as, watch over our hearts with all care, utmost care.
All this points to the great importance of keeping a check on what we think and consider and allow our minds to have thoughts about and continue thinking about. Not the word all diligence, all care, utmost care. Essentially pointing that absolutely nothing should be allowed to cross this gate/checkpoint without your intentional approval. Nothing approved should be allowed in. Not to be casual about matters brought for thinking for a moment or longer. The moment you sense it as an unhealthy thought, just change that thought, better still go into a thought acceptable by God. You just do not want to even have a trace of poison thought. Every thought is either healthy or poisonous. Poisons are of various grades – those that induce sudden death or slow death – both are to be hated and not considered.
