In this episode of Good News with Socrates, we explore the power of speaking life, the spiritual meaning of the word "enthousiasmos" (ενθουσιασμός) and how to shift our hearts and mouths toward joy, peace, and thanksgiving. Socrates explains the Greek root of enthousiasmos—entheos—which means “God within” or "Filled with God" and teaches that when we speak with enthousiasmos, we are expressing the Spirit of God inside us.

Socrates emphasizes that the words we speak reflect the abundance of our hearts and carry creative power. He challenges us to stop complaining, gossiping, and murmuring, replacing those habits with thanksgiving, praise, and encouragement. Drawing from Psalms, Romans, and Thessalonians, he illustrates how joy, gratitude, and faith-filled speech transform atmospheres and invite the presence of God into our lives.

Tune in and discover how to renew your heart and mind by speaking life over yourself, your family, your city, and even your enemies—because when God is within you, only good things should flow from your mouth.

Key Scriptures:

Luke 6:45 – “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.”

Psalms 100:1–5 – “Enter His gates with thanksgiving, and His courts with praise.”

Psalms 104:4 – “Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him.”

Numbers 16:31 – The warning against murmuring and complaining.

Romans 12:11–13 – “Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.”

1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 – “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in everything.”

Romans 14:17 – “The kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.”
