What if changing your words could actually change your life?

In this episode, Josh and Corina unpack the biblical foundation and spiritual power behind declarations—speaking God’s truth out loud over your life. Drawing from Proverbs, Romans, Ephesians, and personal stories, they reveal how shifting your words rewires your brain, shapes your beliefs, and releases supernatural grace.

Whether you’ve struggled with negative self-talk, past labels, or just want to deepen your walk with God, this episode will equip you with practical, life-giving tools to change your thoughts by changing your words.

• Why declarations aren’t “woo-woo”—they’re biblical and powerful

• How to identify lies you’ve been believing and replace them with truth

• The difference between acknowledging facts and standing in truth

• How your words literally impact your brain, your emotions, and your outcomes

• Why you should say declarations out loud (not just in your head)

• How Abraham’s name change became a model for faith and identity

• Tips for creating declarations rooted in Scripture and using them daily

“Your words don’t just describe your life—they shape it.”
“Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’ That’s not denial—that’s truth in action.”
“When I changed my words, I started to see grace flood into areas I’d struggled for years.”

• Proverbs 18:21 – Death and life are in the power of the tongue.

• Proverbs 16:24 – Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.

• Romans 8:11 – The same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead gives life to our mortal bodies.

• Ephesians 4:29 – Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth… that it may impart grace to the hearers.

• Joel 3:10 – Let the weak say, “I am strong.”

• Philippians 4:19 – God shall supply all your needs…

• Isaiah 53 – By His stripes, you are healed.

• Create 3–5 personal declarations using Scripture.

• Say them out loud every morning and evening.

• Reframe your everyday phrases:

  • “I have to...” → “I get to...”

  • “This is hard...” → “I can do this with grace.”

  • “I always forget...” → “I remembered. I have the mind of Christ!”

• Where have I been speaking death over myself?

• What lie have I believed that I can replace with God’s truth?

• What is one Scripture I can declare daily to renew my mind?
