Most of us know by now the power of what we say and they way in which we say our words. A very important distinction we need to make is this: Are we speaking words for faith and joy or are they “fear”based? Practically when we declare or speak out what we don’t want that could be a good thing, however that’s focusing on the negative. We must say and declare what we want instead. If I want to lose weight, I don’t say “I don’t want to be fat.” Instead I can declare, “I want to feel great, have energy, and be active.” Also, “I don’t want to lose in business.” Instead say, “ I will plant seeds of service so I’m profitable.” “I don’t want to be rejected by others.” Instead say,” I am important and what I have to offer matters.” Our declarations matter and should be rooted in faith. Pro 18:21 (ESV) 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.
