Words are significant, especially the ones we speak over ourselves.
As a result, we are to speak good things into our lives. Don’t say things like – enu gbe, money no dey ground, boys are broke, I can’t make it, babes are ugly, my head is big but my brain is tiny, Sapa na my papa, I’m shapeless, E don spoil, I’m a poor speaker, etc.
The Bible tells us that the power of life and death lies in the tongue. This shows how powerful the tongue is, therefore use it for your good. Everyone desires a successful life, a life filled with good health, peace, joy and provision and yet we still speak failure and evil over ourselves!
Our confessions over ourselves and circumstances matter a lot so continue to speak positive words even when you have not yet started to see the physical manifestation.
Your life will align with your words because you say what you believe. Your words are a result of your thoughts, hence if you say you’re a nobody or that you can’t achieve anything in life, it’s most likely what you have been thinking in your heart.
Confess God’s promises over yourself and speak His Word into your life. He watches over His Word to perform it, so He’ll watch over the Word that you’ve spoken into your life to perform it. Isaiah 55:11 tells us that His word will never return to Him without accomplishing that which He has sent it out to do, therefore when we speak God’s word, we’ll see it becoming fulfilled in our lives.
Say things like: I’m loved and forgiven by God; I’m redeemed; I’m the apple of God’s eye; I’m unique, beautiful/handsome and brilliant; I walk in prosperity and victory; Help and helpers locate me; I’m more than a conqueror; I’m fruitful and I multiply; I’m blessed and so the work of my hands are blessed; The Lord multiplies my efforts.
Even as you make these confessions, work hard. Don’t say “I’ll pass my exams” and yet you wouldn’t read or “I’ll be promoted” and yet you’re only present at work twice a week. Study, be diligent in what you do and speak the Word because when God enforces it, success is assured.
Speak God’s Word and watch how your life becomes exactly what you desire!
