A Prayer for you

Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive. There is no cost, just a lot of reward. Make sure you pray, and pray believing God will answer. May today be all you need it to be. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit restore your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight, and conquer all your fears. May God manifest Himself today in ways you have never experienced. May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer, and your prayers be answered.. I pray that faith enters a new height for you; I pray that your territory is enlarged. I pray for peace, healing, health, happiness, prosperity, joy, true and undying love for God. Be blessed!


The tongue

I get on the phone with a group of Christians in the morning for a wonderful inspirational call. That time on the call is just wonderful and a blessing. The man that does the teaching on the call has such an anointing from God.

If you read my blog you will see that I talk about the words of our mouth quite often. Well he said something the other day on the call and it got my attention. He said that his belief is that the only way the devil can get at us is through our mouth.

I had to think about what he said and wonder is that the only way the enemy can get us? Yes everything in life is centered on our thoughts and words.  I learned about the mouth years ago and have been teaching that to people ever since. The Bible says we have the power of life and death in our tongue. So we will always have what we are saying.

So if you are speaking words of poverty that is exactly what you will get. If you are talking fear instead of faith you will be afraid, if you believe you aren't forgiven then you won't be. If you talk about being sick you will be. If you dwell on the bad things that could happen they will.

Joyce Meyers has a book the battlefield of the mind. I read it many years ago and it's good. Think about it God says what is in your heart comes out of your mouth. First though it's in your mind. You make the decision where it goes from there. If it's a bad thought you need to get rid of it in Jesus name. If it's a good thought and you dwell on it and it goes to your heart it's okay that it comes out of your mouth. Are you understanding what I mean?

I have to always overcome fear so the devil knows that I am weak in that area. The thoughts come but I have to rebuke them and give them to the Lord. I do that as often as I have to. Also the area of not being afraid gets better everyday in Jesus name.

 Do you know those people for example that say every year in Nov. I get the flu? Are you one them? I know people that say that and that is exactly what they get. When people say things to me that aren't faith or are bad confessions about me or my family I turn the words back. We don't have to receive them in Jesus name.

So it's true what ever comes out of our mouth is what gives the enemy room to come in. So think before you speak.

My daughter says that men tend to not filter what comes out of their mouth. She says it enters their minds and they just speak without thinking. That is really true but it's true with all of us. Maybe men tend to not be as careful about it. You know what I mean. If your like me you speak to fast sometimes. The words are out there and you can't take them back. You wonder why did I say that. Your words have power to destroy don't let them.

Your words should always be positive but not just about yourself. If you are speaking bad words about others be careful because what you sow you reap. That is God' promise. We all want to reap the good things we say but remember we will reap the bad things we say also. Its a two way street.

I don't know about you but I will continue to be careful about what I say. God wants us speaking love and faith filled words.

So let today be a new day for you. If you are a person that doesn't filter before you speak you need to learn to do that. Be positive and your words will be also. God loves you and always will.
