A wholesome tongue is a tree of
life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit (Proverbs 15:4).
God has given you the power to control the circumstances of your life,
and that power is in your mouth. The Apostle James, in James 3:5 cautions on
the importance of talking right: "A word out of your mouth may seem of no
account, but it can accomplish nearly anything--or destroy it! It only takes a
spark, remember, to set off a forest fire" (James 3:5 MSG). By your words
you create or destroy. By talking right, you create your triumphant life, and
maintain your victories in Christ. In the same vein, through negative
confessions, many breach the hedge and give Satan the opportunity to plunder
their lives.
You may have read the inspiring story of a Shunammite woman in 2 Kings
4:8-36. Even though her son had just died, she quickly dashed off to the
Prophet Elisha with only one declaration on her lips, "It is well."
She wasn’t screaming for help or complaining; rather, she went to the prophet
of God with the right confession, and she got a miracle. Jesus said in Mark
11:23, ‘you shall have what you say’; she said it was well, and her
faith-confession produced results.
Choose always to talk right, and by that, I mean talk the Word. Expose
yourself to the right information— from God’s Word to help you form the
right mind-set— because before you can talk right, you must first think right.
Words are thoughts clothed with vocabulary. Thoughts are the specific,
descriptive imaginations of the mind, which are from the information received
through the senses. This is why you must constantly fellowship with the Word;
let the Word dwell in you richly through constant study and meditation.
The Bible says out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks
(Matthew 12:34). When your spirit is inundated with the Word, you’ll talk
right; you’ll talk the Word! And the Word of God on your lips will prevail and
catapult you to higher levels of success, victory and prosperity.
Confession
My faith is built on God’s Word of power, and I’m
transformed from glory to glory as I live in, and by the Word. I’m experiencing
unlimited victories and success because I’m being piloted by the Spirit, with
the Word prevailing mightily in my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
