You’ve Got the Power

Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

Whatever is not living is dying or dead and whatever is not working is failing.  God has provided a way to resuscitate whatever is dying or failing in your life.  He has given you the power of words.  You can use words to weaken and kill or strengthen and bring back to life those things that are dying or failing.  It was the word of God spoken by Jesus Christ that resuscitated Lazarus and brought him back to life.  Jesus spoke to the fig tree and it dried up from the root and died.  Jesus spoke to an invalid and he got up, took up his bed and walked.  Jesus rebuked the winds and the sea and they obeyed.  Rebuke is translated as a stern talking to, to prevent something from going wrong.  Satan came to kill steal and destroy, but Jesus came to give life, abundantly.  You do not have to succumb to destructive situation presented to you, or do without that which belongs to you according to the word of God.  However, you must decide how you will use words, for life or death.  Whatever you decide, you shall eat the fruit of your words.  Consider speaking life over yourself and everything that concerns you:  your family, health, career, relationships, etc. and speak death over everything that is destructive to you.

Prayer for today:  Father, thank you for the power of words.  Help me to use words wisely, to speak life and or death when appropriate by the power of the Holy Spirit.  In JESUS name, AMEN. 

Whatever you must do today, there is a grace for that.  Accept the grace and make it a sweatless day.

Love
