Today's Scripture
The tongue has the power of life and death Proverbs 18:21, NIV.
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
God has given us amazing power through the use of our words. God created the world with the words He spoke, and we also have creative power with the words that we speak.
Maybe you arent where you want to be in life today. Could it be because of the words youve spoken in your past? Have you spoken words of death by saying things like, Ill never rise any higher; Ive gone as far as I can go? Or maybe youve said, Ill never break this addiction. Ive had it too long; its too hard. Now, you are eating the fruit of those wordsyoure still in the same place.
If you are ready to change your situation, then its time to change what you say about your situation. If you want a different harvest, you have to change the seeds you are sowing. Today, choose to speak life over your future. Let your attitude be, This may be the way its been in the past, but this is not the way its staying. Im coming up higher. I may feel weak, but my declaration is that I am strong. Speak life, choose life, and move forward in His victory and blessing.
A Prayer for Today
Father in heaven, I repent for speaking words of death and sowing defeat in my own life. I ask that You uproot any negative crop from the past and help me speak words of faith so that I can walk in victory in every area of my life in Jesus name. Amen.
