What you think is a seed. What you believe is a seed.
What you say is a seed. Understanding this truth removes the foundation for failure in your life and replaces it with hope! We can no longer point the finger of blame for our situations at what the government is doing or not doing for us. We can’t blame our bad circumstances on a lousy economy, bad parents, bad friends, or a bad environment. The future is what we sow for!
You have the power in your mouth through the great confession of your Christianity! It says that God is alive, Jesus is your healer, ALL things are possible, and what people see now is not the reality of where they will see you later on!
Each of us possess the power of choice to determine our future. We might feel controlled right now by other people, physical pain, or economic conditions, but our future is still in our mouths. As Paul said, “We, having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak” (2 Cor. 4:13).
Many people, including some preachers, say that God is in control and whatever happens is His will. But does a farmer reap what God sows? What kind of crop will the farmer get if he takes the year off and just tells God he will take whatever crop God produces? No, the farmer reaps what he himself sows. If this principle is true for the farmer, isn’t it true for us also?
Don’t waste your precious gift of speech by declaring that you’re in agreement with evil, failure, depression, sickness, or fear. Regardless of how bad circumstances may look in the natural, you don’t need to go along with them, because you know and believe that you have a source that cannot be touched by man!
Each of us are alive for a period of time on this earth, but it does NOT have to be a life controlled by germs and viruses and filled with sickness and disease. It can be a life of victory, where we are living the abundant life of health and healing and peace that God has provided for us!
The scenarios we create with our words can either draw favor, blessings, goodwill, love, healing, finances, and trust to us…or they can draw anger, hate, fear, anxiety, and death into our lives. Regardless of whether you choose to believe in it or not, life and death truly is in the power of your tongue (Proverbs 18:21).
God can only go where our feet take Him. He can only touch the people we touch. He sees through our eyes and speaks through our mouths. His words are all-powerful, but for that power to be released they must be spoken through our lips of faith!
To be seated in Christ is to take a chair in a high position. There you find your place of rest. When you see yourself seated in this chair, you get a new perspective on your earthly problems. Our prayers are pointed downward toward the mountains on earth below us. We are no longer looking upward for help! A change of perspective can give a change of result!
The Bible says that through the name of Jesus we have authority over the devil, and over sickness and disease. Therefore, when we pray we use the authority that God gave us through Jesus Christ. We can boldly command, “In the name of Jesus, sickness, you must leave my body,” and then continue to stand strong on God’s Word!
