Rhapsody of Realities Tuesday 20th May 2025 Message By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy)
TOPIC: Talk And Create Sound Codes
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1).
Speech creates sound waves, and the original source material for creation is sound. This is because sound is the energy produced by words. When God spoke, creation came into being. His words possessed the energy that formed and caused everything He said to materialize.
Why did He have to speak? Why didn’t He simply make everything without speaking? He was giving us a precedent and, more importantly, showing us the importance of sound coding. Sound coding is the assignment of meaning, interpretation, and communication of sound or the cognitive process for the creation of sound.
For example, if I say “Haha” and tell you it means “stop,” only you, who received that instruction, will understand what “Haha” means. Others who don’t know the code will not comprehend its meaning. Sound coding, therefore, is the process of embedding instructions, meaning and information into sound waves. When you’re teaching a child a language, for example, you’re encoding sound into that child by talking to the child; you’re transmitting something into that child’s memory.
If you were talking Spanish to that child, the child would end up speaking Spanish because you’ve given that child the sound codes for the Spanish language. Therefore, there’s memory; the child captures the message. Now, here’s what God did: He spoke creation into being. When He said “Let there be light,” light became; He spoke to the darkness and light came out of the darkness.
In that entire account of creation in Genesis 1, we find God talking. Even when He made man in His image, He still talked to the man. Why did God have to talk? Because by talking, you create a sound code. This sound code carries the instruction, meaning, and purpose embedded in your words.
We talked about the energy of words earlier; all of creation responds to the sound code of your words. Your words carry a creative force. Every word you speak is a wave that carries meaning, purpose, and potential for creating, instructing, and communicating.
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for the creative power of words. Through your Word, all things were made, and by speaking in faith, I align with your divine principles. I use my words wisely to encode life, meaning and purpose in everything I say. Thank you for teaching me these profound truths and for making me a creator through the power of my words, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
