Did you know you have power in your tongue.

If you have read the first chapter of Genesis in the Bible, the account of creation, then think on this. What did God use to create the world? Words, spoken words and God said... And God saw it was good. It took 6 days to create the earth and the 7th day God rested. Think about it God spoke the words, which confirmed the image in God's mind which then came into being. Notice the only thing God used was words. For most people this is totally unbelievable so they turn to science to prove it is immpossible. If those people allowed someone else to speak an opinion that proved it could be correct, they shout them down. By the way yes I can give you a scientific theory that shows it is totally possible but I am not here for that I am here to tell you about the power of words. Do you think God believed what he spoke, it is unbeleivable and immpossible in reality, but it is God's vision and desire.

Solomon from the Old Testament states in Proverbs 18:21 “the power of both life and death is in the tongue”. You can also find reference to this in the New Testament. The choice is yours, the results have been made perfectly clear for a long time, and this is not a new concept. You have the choice of what you say to yourself and out loud. Make sure you do not run yourself down, because when you do that you make it a majority it’s a done deal. Your mouth is confirming your thinking. Your mouth and what comes out of it is a self-fulfilling prophecy. What you say is what will come to pass in your life. You will never posses more than you confess. The Bible says we should speak blessings and not curses; words that speak life to you and others not death and decay. Yes you can prophesy over yourself, you can prophesy about your future, make sure it is blessing and not a curse. Call forth whatever the calling of God is on your life.

The minute you say something out loud, you own it, you transfer it our of your head and into your heart.

Did you notice when Jesus was in the wilderness and tempted by the devil the only think Jesus used was words, and He defeated the devil's three temptations. Jesus used the word recorded in the Old Testament and that was all He used, no secret weapon, nothing that is not available for us to use as well in the same way.

The Bible, scripture, every single verse has nothing to do with what you can do by yourself. Every verse is about Christ in you. When will we believe about us what God believes about us?

Mark 11: 13, 14, 20-26
13: And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
14: And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
20: And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
21: And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22: And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23: For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24: Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25: And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26: But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
You words have power and especially so when you mix them with Faith, the God kind of Faith, when you speak out the word of God, believe it will come to pass and dont be surprised when it does. Stay right with God and nothing can defeat you.
In verses 13 and 14 notice that Jesus used a fig tree as an example. We are told that it was not the correct time to produce figs, the tree only had leaves at this time of the year and yet Jesus spoke to the tree that no man will ever eat the fruit of this tree again. We are told that the desciples heard what Jesus said. Then the next morning as they past by, Peter, noticed that the tree was all dried up and withered away. Jesus made a comment to have faith in God when they spoke about the tree. Jesus gave no reason He was simly demonstarting a point to the desciples. Speak directly to the object, there is no need to ask the tree if it has an explanation why it has no fruit, you wont get an answer. Even if the tree had been in the correct season and had fruit when Jesus said these words it would have been the same result. Jesus spoke the result He wanted to see from the tree and walked away without another word, He didnt look back, cross his fingers etc. He just spoke words and the tree died overnight. Jesus was doing this as an example, to show that you have the authority in your spoken words to change the circumstances of what you see going on around you. We then see that Jesus carries on speaking, and says that if you speak to your mountain to be removed and thrown into the sea and do not doubt it must be done. So what is the mountain that is causing you grief today, illness, bad health, temptation of one form or another, trouble at work, whatever it is, speak the result you wish to see, speak directly to the problem backed up with verses of scripture. Do not doubt, if it doesnt happen instantly do not get down, do not get dishartened and say something stupid like, see it didnt work, I knew it wouldnt. Guess what, you just blew it off in that rash statement. Why does Jesus say to throw the mountain into the sea, well, when that mountain drops into the sea and sinks ghuess what, it is gone, you cannot see it, it is no longer a mountain. Have faith in GOD, you cannot do it on your own, but you have to speak it out for it to happen.

Luke 10:19
"19: Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." You have been given authority, nothing shall hurt you. a couple of verses earlier the desciples who had been sent out during the summer had returned and reported the following "17: And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name." They had been taught previously, they had seen Jesus speaking things out, casting out demons and rebuking the devil, they found out they had the same power when they used the name of Jesus. Guess what we also have that same authority and power, but very few are using it let alone believe it.

Philipians 2:10
"9: Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11: And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Every knee shall bow in the name of Jesus, that even includes the devil and all his horde of demons, they all have to obey. I included verses 9 and 11 here to give some extra input. Notice we are told that GOD himself gave Jesus His name and it out ranks everything else. All things must obey His name Use it within the scriptual context, in other words, say what Jesus would say in the situation, and whatever it is has to obey, or God will have words. Take notice we also have to obey and come under the same authority, so no need to sit there and gloat. When we see Jesus, we will be flat on our faces and He wont have spoken a word at that point.

John 14:13
"12: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13: And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14: If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it."
Remind the enemy that he is already defeated even the devil has to obey and all his demon hoard. Speak the word out loud. Yes the devil may have rebelled against GOD, but that same devil has to still obey the spoken word of GOD and GOD gave us those same words to speak out over the devil.

Speak out loud over yourself, speak the things that you require, speak healing to your body, just remember it must be Bible based. There are hundreds of verses throughout the Bible that speak of your healing, speak a few out over your body. Do not go back later on and say something negative about yourself or you will have stopped your own positive healing words. What do you need? Find the verse and personalise it to your needs. What giant do you have holding you back, standing in your way, speak to it with the name of Jesus, speak to it with relevant Bible verses and tell it to depart. It must go, it must flee from you. Speak out with meaning, it is pointless saying a weak little statement over yourself, only half thinking it might work, no, say it with confidence, say it with boldness, grab a hold of it and make it yours.

Speak out positive words, speak as if you already have what you dream of having. Speak out the words of Victory that are in your mouth, and when you do, do not doubt them. You want a script that you can record?

Then try this for size, and yes its based on a passage in the Bible but don’t let that put you off.

“I’m a winner and not a looser,
I’m a shouter and not a doubter,
I’m blessed, I’m blessed, I’m blessed, and I’m blessed,
I’m the head and not the tail, I’m above and not beneath,
I’m blessed coming in,
I’m blessed going out,
I’m blessed in the city,
I’m blessed in the field,
The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want,
I’m blessed, I’m blessed, I’m blessed, and I’m blessed,
I’m redeemed from the curse, sickness, poverty and spiritual death,
I’m a success looking for a place to happen,
There is money searching for me today,
There is money hunting for me today,
A blessing is coming my way,
The only way I could feel any better today would be to be twins,
I’m a blessed successful person,
I’m blessed, I’m blessed, I’m blessed, and I’m blessed.”

Now doesn’t that sound so much better than the usual “Nobody knows……… the trouble I’ve seen……. I tell you its so hard out their…… what we going to do………there’s a recession going on…..”
Hey there may well be a recession, or there may be a pandemic, or it may be coming up to fue season, but let me tell you something I’m not participating you don’t have to either.
