Your Confessions Rule You - November 28th 2023

By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

 

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof” (Proverbs 18:21 KJV).

 

As a Christian, never speak death. Speak life only. Your words rule your life; they control your future. Who you are today, what you've become, is the result of your words. That's the reason you must train yourself to talk right.


Proverbs 6:1-2 says,"My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger, Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth." Those who have found themselves in certain precarious situations are snared, taken captive, or bound by their words.


Our affirmations rule our lives; they affect us. So, when it comes to words, never say anything that's inconsistent with the Word of God about your life. For example, never jokingly say something that is against your body or your life, because you're going to have what you say (Mark 11:23).


If you speak death, you're going to have death! On the other hand, if you speak health, prosperity, strength, courage and life, that's what you'll have! The same way you can build your life with your words, you can destroy your works with your own mouth.


The Bible says,"A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof" (Proverbs 18:20-21). When it stays, "A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth," it's referring to words!


Notice also it says, "A man with the increase of his lips shall he be filled..."; that's referring to the words of wisdom pouring out of your mouth. Speak life to your finances, your home, your children, your business or job; speak righteousness to your nation and peace within its borders. Always remember that your words are infused with divine energy to create new and glorious realities, transform circumstances, and change situations to conform to God's provisions, plans, and purposes for you in Christ.


PRAYER/CONFESSION

"Dear Father, I thank you for showing me the way to a life of continuous victory through my faith-filled confessions in accordance with your Word! I'll never be discouraged nor subject to the crippling principles of this world, because the Word of God on my lips is God talking. I reign triumphantly over all the negativities of life, in Jesus' Name. Amen."
