Words mattered to God when He created everything. Words mattered when He established the God-Man relationship. Words mattered when He confirmed standards of living & conduct. Words mattered when He addressed Biblical characters. Words mattered when He gave names or changed names that validated His Will and Purpose. Words mattered when He chose certain places in which to complete His intentions. Words really matter when He addresses us. Words should matter when & how we act toward and refer to Him. Words should matter when others view our relationship with Him. Consider with me, if you will, the importance of words and why they matter to the God of creation.
