TALK RIGHT AND LIVE RIGHT
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:10).
Your destiny is in your mouth. The Bible says in Proverbs 18:21, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” Also, Proverbs 15:4 says, “A wholesome tongue is a tree of life….” A wholesome tongue is one that talks right, that speaks God’s Word. Nothing is more wholesome than the Word of God.
Proverbs 6:2 says, “Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.” This describes the precarious situation many have found themselves in life. They’ve been bound by their own words. They speak carelessly and against the Word because they’ve not been taught right.
If you’ve been taught right, you’ll think right and talk right. In the realm of the spirit, words rule. Words are everything. God created the entire universe by the energy of words, and He gave us the same ability to build and create with words.
Your life today is the summation of your words. So, if you want a better life than what you have right now, you must change the course of your words, making sure they’re faith-filled and consistent with God’s divine provisions in the Gospel.
Proverbs 18:20 says, “A man’s belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.” If you don’t want to be sick, broke, weak and despondent, then use your mouth right; speak God’s Word.
The Lord Jesus taught on the power and importance of the spoken word—the Word on your lips. In Mark 11:23 He said you shall have what you say. 2 Corinthians 4:13 says, “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.”
It brings to mind what the Apostle Paul said in Romans 10:10 in showing us the principle of salvation: “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Talk right and you’ll live right. Whatever you believe and voice out with your mouth will control your life. This is a law of the spirit, and it’s immutable.
CONFESSION
Through my faith-filled words, I create whatsoever I desire; I walk in divine health, protection, peace and prosperity. I live above the elements and debilitating forces of this world because I live in Christ, seated with Him far above Satan and the wicked forces of darkness. I reign triumphantly over all the negativities of life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
