WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

October 16, 2015 · Lanre Oyeleke · 2 views

Proverbs18:20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.

A boy was caught stealing sometimes ago, he was a young chap that should be productively engaged. When he was quizzed on why he resorted into stealing, he said he was under a spell by his parents. He said instead of his parents to pray for him, they curse him and that's why he became a petty thief. That excuse may sound flimsy but it makes sense spiritually.

Your words are not empty. What are you saying about your child(ren), your job and future?There is nothing like empty words, what you said yesterday may not manifest immediately but it is inside a spiritual incubator awaiting the day of maturity. Your life will go in the direction of your words. The words you speak programme your life for failure or success, it is just a matter of time.

Do not joke with words and say it doesn't matter. Every word matters a lot. There are people that curse and would say it is just a threat, it is not a threat. You must understand that speaking is a spiritual law that sets in motion what you desire to see. Even God had to speak during creation before every was in order. What are you saying?

Your words will either put you under or over. Speak word-based words into your life.

Action point

CONFESSION: I shall not know sorrow, I am not stupid I'm wise. Blessed beyond measure and fluorishing without ceasing. I am not barren and can never be. I am not poor and will never. Sickness isn't my name and I refuse the identity of a sickler including my children. I am great because the greater one lives in me. Glory!
