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?
In His presence!
Every creature has an optimal environment that allows them to live and thrive. To the fish, it’s the ocean. To the bird, it’s the sky. To the Christian, it’s God’s presence. Psalm 140:13 “Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name; The upright shall dwell in Your presence“. In His presence, we are made strong. We are cleansed, We receive His joy. We receive wisdom. We are protected. We receive His mercy. We are protected from our enemies. We are secure. We are loved. We see with His eyes. We feel His heart. We get answers for our prayers. We experience resurrection power. We receive spiritual, mental and emotional healing. His presence is the place where we live and thrive. Have you experienced His presence?
Psalm 16:11 “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy”.
