PROPHESY, SPEAK AND DECLARE THE WORD

There are so many things that God has done for you. He has given you all that you will ever need in life. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:” (Ephesians 1:3). One of the greatest gift you have received from God is your mouth and you must not reduce the role of this vital part of your body to eating and talking only. If the major role of your mouth is for gossiping and eating food only, you have big problem. God gave you that mouth so that you can access Him in prayers and constantly praise Him for His grace and favour. “By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” (Hebrews 13:15). Look at this beloved, “So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.” (Ezekiel 37:7).

You need to speak the right words to your life and situations. You can also, in seeking a life partner or regaining your missing rib, command the bone of your bone to locate you. Speaking wrongly or complaining will never be a substitute to prophecy and consistent prayers. Some people are so given to complaints and murmuring. That will never turn the situations around for your good. If you like you can start complaining about Nigeria and our leaders and leaders from now till the world to come, that won’t bring about your desired change or peace. You have wasted a lot of time complaining about how things aren’t working for this Nation and you. Stop the complaints and begin to pray by making declarations of the picture of a life you want in Christ.

Prayer: Father, don’t allow my life to be wasted by my words of mouth
