A Man of Few Words
by Kenneth Copeland
There’s something about Jesus you may not have noticed, even if you’ve read the New Testament many times. It’s a characteristic, or practice, that consistently marked His ministry on earth. I’ve never heard a single sermon preached about it, yet it’s of vital importance to all of us who want to walk with Him.
In the most critical and difficult situations, Jesus was a man of few words.
Throughout the Gospels, whenever He spoke a faith command—whether He was dealing with circumstances, sickness, death or the devil—He kept it brief.
Think about it. He healed a leper by saying simply, “I will; be thou clean.” He calmed a stormy sea with “Peace, be still.” He raised a dead man with three words: “Lazarus, come forth.”
In Mark 11:14, He even turned a fig tree in full bloom into a withered stump with nine words: “No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever.”
