GOD NEVER CHANGES HIS WORD AND WILL - OUR WORDS AND WILL SHOULD NEVER CHANGE: WE HAVE A CHOICE TO MAKE!



Greetings

when I received this one around the time I received a friend's email on God's will and words and our will and words I know that we need to chew on it until what we speak aligns with God's Word and Will and NOT 'the facts of life' we are living... this is the hardest thing that we can ever do... but is the will... our will that will decide to follow God or to let the devil keep kicking us from altar to post... OUR CHOICE TO MAKE!!!

So, here is another one on our words and the power of what we say outloud:

*** "Speak Life" by Dr. Larry Ollison

What you say is important. In fact, the words that come from your mouth today shape your world tomorrow. Your words can bring prosperity and health or they can bring poverty and death. According to the Bible, the words you speak can and will shape your life.

Proverbs 18:21 says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”

It is true. Life and death are in the power of the tongue. What you say is important. In fact, what you say is so important that much of the Bible is devoted to teaching us what to say.

In the book of James in chapter 3, the Bible compares the tongue to the rudder of a large ship. Although a ship may be large and driven by fierce winds, it is turned by a very small rudder. This is the way the tongue is. It may be a small part of your body, but what you say with your mouth can enhance or destroy your life.

Most Christians have no idea how their words are affecting their lives. Words can either be words of faith – words that confirm the Word of God, or words of doubt – words that destroy faith. The choice is yours. Your mouth is connected to your head, not someone else’s. You have no one to blame for what you say other than yourself. Think of it this way. Your life and your death are in the power of your tongue.

Jesus said in Mark 11:23 “For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, be removed and be cast into the sea, and does not doubt in his heart but believes that those things he says will come to pass, he will have whatever he says.”

Jesus said to say to the mountain, “be cast into the sea.” He didn’t say think to the mountain. He didn’t say believe in your heart and that will be enough. He said to believe in your heart and say with your mouth and then you will see the mountain moved.

In Romans 10:9 the Bible says, “If you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” Notice it says that we are to confess Jesus with our mouth. It doesn’t say to think in our minds. It says to confess with your mouth, in other words, say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord.

Think of your words as containers. When they are released from your mouth, they contain faith or they contain doubt.

Proverbs 6:2 says we are snared by the words of our mouth. This simply means that you are responsible for your words. You have a choice. With your words you can curse or you can bless.

You may ask, “Then what should I say?” The answer is speak words of faith. Speak words that align with the Word of God. Say, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Say, “Jesus is Lord and Satan is defeated.” Say, “He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases.” Quote the Word.

Remember, Proverbs 18:21 says “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.”

Some people say they can’t help what they say. That’s not true. You can control your words. The choice is yours. Will you speak words of faith or will you speak words of doubt?

Your life and your death are in the power of your tongue. Speak life.
