SPEAK IN LINE WITH YOUR EXPECTATIONS
“For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith”.Mark 11:23 (KJV)Child of God, your belief goes hand in hand with what you say. What you say is an overflow of what is in your heart (Matthew 12:34). God didn’t tell you to call darkness, darkness! He told you to call light out of darkness. He told you to call the things that do not exist, as though they existed already (Romans 4:17). He says you can have what you say. But you keep saying what you already have. Stop calling what you already have. Rather call forth what you desire into existence.In order to enjoy the fruits of the Word, you must adhere to its principles. God wants you to talk about His promises. He doesn’t want you to keep speaking in line with what you are going through. If your experience is going to be different, then you have to believe who God says you are. And then speak words that align with who God has called you. Look at this translation of Proverbs18:21: “Your words are so powerful that they will kill or give life, and the talkative person will reap the consequences” (Proverbs 18:21 TPT).Therefore, it is completely in your hands to believe God’s perspective of you and to align your words with His perspective, irrespective of your experience.I declare that your experiences will submit to what God has declared concerning you before the foundation of the world. You will fulfil purpose. The enemy will not cut short your life. I speak peace to every contrary wind that is blowing in your direction. And I command every mountain to be levelled before you. The year will answer to you. You will jump over walls and leap over troops. The commanded blessings of God will not elude you. I bless you today in Jesus name.Further Reading: Proverbs 12:13; 13:2; 18:20-21; 2Corinthians 4:13Daily Bible Reading: Morning- Isaiah 41-42; Evening- 1 Thessalonians 1
