OUR LANGUAGE IS DIFFERENT

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 (2 Corinthians 4:13). 

When the Apostle Paul, in 1 Corinthians 3:1-3, addressed the Christians at Corinth as being carnal, it was mostly because of their language. They talked like mere men and as a result, lived below their call. As a child of God, your communication must reflect the provisions of the Gospel and synchronize with the tenets and culture of our heavenly kingdom.

The carnal or ordinary man or woman speaks according to their senses. They speak fear and unbelief. But our language is different; we speak faith; we believe, and therefore we speak. What do we believe? We believe the Word and that’s what we speak. Glory to God! The Word of God is truth, and truth is reality. Therefore, every time you utter the Word concerning any situation, you’re speaking the reality about that situation. 

For example, if you felt a headache, or a pain in your joints or any part of your body; don’t say, “I have a headache, or I have arthritis.” Instead, rebuke it and say, “I have the life of God in me; therefore, I’m forever healthy and strong. No sickness can thrive in my body, because my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.” 

When you say that, you’re speaking truth; you’re affirming what you have in Christ. Sickness, disease, infirmities, poverty, weakness and death aren’t part of what God has given unto you; so never voice them. 1 Corinthians 2:12-13: “Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.”

We have received the Holy Spirit to help us know and understand what God has freely given to us; these are the same things you’re supposed to speak. So, what has God given you? He’s given you eternal life (1 John 5:11-12); He’s given you wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and riddance (1 Corinthians 1:30). He’s given you ALL things that you require for life and for godliness (2 Peter 1:3). 

These and more are the things you should speak. Every so often, boldly affirm who you are, what you have and what you can do in Christ. Speak the language of faith and power. Hallelujah!

Prayer / Confession

The Holy Spirit has trained my tongue to speak the language of the Kingdom. I speak words of faith, authority and power only; words that are consistent with the provisions of Christ in His Gospel and with the tenets and culture of our heavenly Kingdom. Amen.
