POWER of YOUR WORDS

Today’s Scripture       (Across my desk this morning from a church in Texas.)
The tongue has the power of life and death.  (Proverbs 18:21, NIV)
    
Speak to Your Mountain
Words have creative power. They can be very helpful like electricity. Used the right way, electricity powers all kinds of good things. But electricity used the wrong way can harm or even kill you. It’s the same way with our words. Whether we speak positive or negative words, we will reap what we sow. If you’re always speaking words of defeat and failure, you’re going to live in a pretty miserable world. Use your words to change your negative situations and fill them with life.
The Scripture clearly tells us to speak to our mountains. Maybe your mountain is a sickness,  a college debt, or a floundering business. Whatever your mountain is, speak to that obstacle. The Scripture says, “Let the weak say, ‘I am strong!’” Start calling yourself healed, happy, whole, blessed, and prosperous. God is a miracle-working God. Stop talking to God about how big your mountains are and start talking to your mountains about how big your God is!
    
A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You for the creative power that You give my words to change my life. Help me to give my faith a voice by speaking words of life and blessing over myself and my future daily. I declare that You are greater than any mountain I face. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
    
Ken’s Comments,
WELL WORTH CONSIDERING….   As I get older I tend to try to be honest to friends and family as to how I am feeling.   As everyone asks, whether they are interested or not.  As I was leaving a big church service one Sunday the minister, on the way out, with the gentle hand tug to keep me moving… ask me, in a very religious and acceptable way, “How are you really doing today.”   So I let go of his hand and went over and got a fold chair and set it down next to him and began to sit down.  He looked at me rather shocked, and said, “What are you doing?”   And I simply replied, “Well, might take some time?”  And then he realized what he had said and started laughing…..  Like a deer caught in the head lights….   But seriously if we are fighting a physical battle of some kind we need to be quoting what God says as the Truth like Isa.53:5-6 and not those next door.

5 “But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole.  6 All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord has made to light upon Him the guilt and iniquity of us all.”  Might just enjoy the following link if in a physical battle with the enemy:  https://trinity-aloha.org/keys-to-the-kingdom/power-for-healing/    Scriptures taken from Dodie Osteen’s book, “Healed of Cancer.”  Where she quoted these scriptures and was healed of cancer.

Our conscious mind, 1/7 is the gateway to our sub conscious mind, 6/7.  And we train our heart mind to agree to what our head mind keeps sending.  So junk in, junk out.  Sowing and Reaping always go hand in hand.  And it is only Heart Faith that secures anything in the Kingdom of God.  Whether it be salvation, new life in Christ, empowering of the Holy Spirit and Spiritual Growth it is all experienced by heart faith.  Read Hebrews 11.   And so what we say about ourselves and others has a great influence in what we will experience and accomplish in life.  And if negative like the Tower of Babel or positive like Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration our faith is for good or bad works in the same way or another.    In fact FEAR is FAITH going backwards.  And the Word of God teaches that God has not given us the spirit of fear but of Love, Power and a Sound Mind.  So actually God really loves us and is for us 100% but HE has to honor our free will. We control the door, Rev.3:20.   Where Jesus is standing outside of HIS own church asking to come in.
 
Things that are holding back from healing us are our lack of love for each other, 1 John 4:13-21.  Our lack of unity in God’s Truth, John 17  Vain church traditions, Mark 7:7.  Paul even wrote about it: 2 Tim.3:1-5.  And James has a few words of advice on healing for us: James 5:12-18
But above all [things], my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath; but let your yes be [a simple] yes, and your no be [a simple] no, so that you may not sin and fall under condemnation.  13 Is anyone among you afflicted (ill-treated, suffering evil)? He should pray. Is anyone glad at heart? He should sing praise [to God].  14 Is anyone among you sick? He should call in the church elders (the spiritual guides). And they should pray over him, anointing him with oil in the Lord’s name.  15 And the prayer [that is] of faith will save him who is sick, and the Lord will restore him; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.  16 Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].  17 Elijah was a human being with a nature such as we have [with feelings, affections, and a constitution like ours]; and he prayed earnestly for it not to rain, and no rain fell on the earth for three years and six months. 18 And [then] he prayed again and the heavens supplied rain and the land produced its crops [as usual].  (1 Cor.11:29-31 would also be good to consider.)
