Word For Today: You Have to Say It

You Have To Say It…! · Monday, June 3rd

Pastor Anita

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap (Galatians 6:7).

The Word of God is replete with teachings on the importance of using your tongue to chart your course and shape your future, for what you say is what you get (Mark 11:23). Every man is the character of his words; life will produce for you a harvest of what you say—good or bad. Therefore, it’s very important that you always make faith declarations about your life.
Someone might ask, "What if I haven’t been saying anything?" Well, the trouble is, you’ll still have a harvest; but it will be the wrong one. Imagine you have a garden, and you refuse to sow any seeds in it; something will definitely grow of its own accord, and that’ll be weeds. Sadly, the lives of some are that way. They don’t realize they have something to do about their lives, so they’ve assumed that "whatever will be, will be"; that’s a wrong perception of life.

It’s not God’s responsibility per se to ensure that you live in victory, dominion and prosperity. He already did all that’s necessary for you to enjoy a transcendent life in Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. It’s your responsibility now to do something with what He’s already given to you.

2 Peter 1:3 says, "According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue." This ought to give you a new mind-set and form the basis for your faithfilled confessions. You must say that you have a great life, if you’re going to live it! You must acknowledge and confess that you’ve been called to a life of glory and virtue; that means a life of power, dominion, and excellence. The principle is, "If you don’t say it, you can’t have it." If you want to continually live in divine health for example, then keep saying it.
Remember, your life is like a garden; sow the right seeds in it by speaking the right words—words of faith—and your life will blossom from glory to glory.
Confession  
My path is the path of the just, which shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day! I make progress today with giant strides, by the power of the Spirit, and through the Word. My life is the testimony of God’s grace, mercy and divine provisions, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
