Words have power to impact the present and future. We have to be careful concerning what we say, both to ourselves and to others. Words can change an environment in a heartbeat. Words can change sadness and despair to joy and celebration. Now let’s take it to the next level. The Lord Jesus said: “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life (John 6:63).” God’s word contains life. When we speak or declare God’s word over our circumstances or situations, we are speaking life. Isaiah 55:11 says: “So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: It shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it”. When God’s word is released, it never comes back void. There is eternal power in the word. So next time you pray, make sure you pray God’s word. Your opinions might fall short, but God’s word will accomplish that which God sent it to do. Don’t just pray emotionally, pray scripturally. Don’t just live emotionally, live scripturally. God’s word will release life, health, joy, purpose, clarity, honor, salvation, confidence, strength, and many other precious gifts in your life and in the lives of those you love. Remember: Words have power. What are the words that you are allowing to come forth from your mouth?
The Day After!
That’s right! Christmas is over! The mad rush to buy gifts, the family get-togethers, the stress of receiving many guests into your home, the cooking, the cleaning, and now, comes the clean-up! These holidays can be truly overwhelming. So what does one do the day after? Well, for the Christian, we do the same thing today. “This is the day that Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalms 118:24)” “I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth (Psalms 34:1).” For the Christian, Christmas is not just a holiday. It is a lifestyle. We celebrate the Lord Jesus every day. We have a daily “attitude of gratitude.” So in reality, for us, Christmas is a daily reality!. Let the celebration continue…………
.Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!
