(The Power Is Released When You Speak)
TO THE BIBLE: Romans 10:10 NIV
“For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”
LET’S TALK
One could describe Michelle as a quiet, cool, and calm young lady. But when it came to declaring the Word and using it against the adversary, she was wild! Like Michelle, refuse to be cool and calm when it comes to things in the realm of the spirit.
It brings to mind the third of the three levels of meditation that the Bible talks about: “roaring!” The Hebrew word is “Hagar.”
Hagar means roaring or shouting the Word. In putting the Word of God to work, be on the offensive.
When sickness tries to attack you or your loved ones, get wild in your affirmation of the Word. Don’t stop until the Word you speak prevails over that situation, because it’ll surely prevail!
The Bible says, “So mightily grew the Word of God and prevailed” (Acts 19:20 KJV). As you speak the Word, it’ll keep growing; the necessary result, therefore, will be for it to prevail.
So, use the Word to deal with any situation, irrespective of how dire or grave the situation is. Every so often, declare, “I’m born again; I have the life of God in me. I refuse to accommodate sickness or infirmities in my body. My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit; therefore, it’s perfected in Christ Jesus. I live in health.” Talk like this every day, because power is released when you speak.
The power doesn’t work just because you know it or believe it. The principle is that you must SAY it for it to work. That’s what we read in our theme verse.
Your mouth isn’t just for communicating and eating; those are the lesser functions of the mouth. The primary function of your mouth is to frame your life aright.
The Prophet said, “Take words with you…” (Hosea 14:2)—not just any words but God’s Word. The Word of God in your mouth is a creative force; use it to change circumstances and make your life excellent, from glory to glory. Hallelujah!

Pray:
Dear Father, your Word dwells in me richly through meditation, and I speak it forth boldly. My words are creative and divine, infused with power to change circumstances; they’re empowered to produce life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
