RHAPSODY OF REALITIES WEDNESDAY, 10TH JUNE.
STEER YOUR LIFE IN GOD'S DIRECTION...WITH WORDS.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof (Proverbs 18:21).
Everything God gave us is activated through speech—words. Many,
however, don’t understand the power of words. The primary function of
your mouth and your tongue is to steer your life in God’s direction for
you. Remember what the Bible tells us about God in the book of Genesis ;
it says, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And
the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of
the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And
God said, Let there be light: and there was light” (Genesis 1:1-3).
The first speech we notice from God wasn’t to somebody; rather, He
started by talking to situations and circumstances. He was making things
happen through the power of speech, showing us what we’re supposed to
do with words. He wanted light and He said, “…let there be light,” and
light came into being. He gave us the ability to speak so that like Him,
we can call into existence the things we want to see in our lives and
environment. Halleluiah!
Your words locate you; what you say
determines where you’ll be in life. That’s the reason it’s so important
for you to avoid talking negatively. For instance, when a Christian
declares, “I can’t do such-and such,” he may think that only applies to
the context of that particular statement, but it’s not so! That
statement immediately works in his spirit and affects his divine nature.
This accounts for why some Christians are in a dilemma in their walk of
faith. They think they know the Word of faith; yet they’re not getting
the right results of the Word in their lives, and they wonder why the
contradiction. The reason is that they’ve programmed too much negativism
into their spirits which must be changed. And only the Word can make
that happen.
Think and talk right. Talk according to the
scriptures! Be sure that your words are in sync with the revealed Word
of God always. That way, you’ll consistently make progress, and chart
your course from glory to glory.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank
you for your glory in my life, and the influence of your Word in my
spirit, soul, and body, and on my lips! By the power of your Word on my
lips, my life is beautified daily; my mind is renewed, and I’m
transformed from glory to glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
