TOPIC: Let Your Words Be Filled With Life (TREM Devotional 18 August 2023)
“Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” Proverbs 18:21 (KJV)
Wisdom For The Day MESSAGE:
Dearly beloved, never stop declaring your expectations because the verdict is yours. If there is any time to hold on to the confession of your faith, it is now. Now is the time to stand your ground till you see the manifestation of your desires. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. This is not the time to give up and say ‘oh I have prayed and nothing is happening’. You don’t judge answers to prayer based on whether there is a physical manifestation or not. That is a wrong assessment. God is a Spirit and we His children are made up of spirit soul and body. And so in the Spirit realm, you have your answers. What you need to do is bring it from the realm of the Spirit into the physical realm. And you do that with your mouth.
You will eat the fruit of your lips. But the type of fruit you eat depends on what you speak. If you speak death filled words, then don’t expect anything to work. But if your words are filled with life, your words are filled with blessings, declarations of God’s goodness and favor, then that is what you will possess. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth; and the earth was without form and void, and there was darkness everywhere, and then God said, “Let there be light, and there was light.” There was a change because God spoke His expectation, rather than what He saw at the time.
What are you speaking? Are you speaking words of recovery, or are you going according to what your circumstances are telling you? This is not the time to shut your mouth and ‘say well I made declarations in time past and I didn’t see any changes, so why should I keep at it?’ You should keep at it until you take delivery of all your expectations.
