There
is power in the tongue or what you speak out, blessings and curses can go forth
from your mouths.
What do you speak when difficulties arise or when you
deal with the same circumstances over and over? What do you say about yourself?
Do you speak that you are a blessed child of the Most High God or do you speak
out every negative trait about yourself? Do you bless your spouse with your
words, or do you tear them apart with sharp criticism and faultfinding?
What you speak out in the atmosphere can be picked up
by angels or by demons. The demons love when you are using your tongue as an
instrument to do their work. Your spoken words can attract angels and they can
also attract the demonic. God has given you the creative power in words, you
have the ability to agree with God’s spoken Word (the Bible), or you can align
your words to usher in what the enemy says about you and your situations.
Reflect
and ponder: What are you speaking out over your
circumstances? Is what you speak align with God’s Word or the enemy’s? You will
attract the angelic or the demonic by the words that you speak out.
Is it ok to share with a trusted godly person the
difficulties in your life? Yes, but you don’t want to continue to share weekly
the same messes. Whatever you do share, make sure that you have a time to
infuse God’s truth into your conversation-in other words, all talk and no time
for turning your woes into what God can do will open a door to the demonic.
Counselor’s
Corner: If one of your spiritual gifts is the gift
of encouragement, recognize that the enemy will try to get you to use your
mouth for his purposes. Keeping quiet and speaking at a minimal will help.
Being a busybody or constantly chit chatting on the phone with no real purpose
can cause you to slip into using your mouth in an improper way. Listen more
than you speak, and when someone is speaking negatively to you, interject God’s
truths.
Everything
you speak first starts with a thought. What you speak with
your mouth shows where your heart is. You are either in submission to the Holy
Spirit or to fleshy emotions.
The category of sin mentioned second most often in the
Bible is that of the tongue (the first is sexual sin). I believe the enemy works
overtime with our tongues because the power of spoken words is one that is able
to heal, deliver, and break curses. If you speak negatively, it can bring word
curses that can block or hinder the work of the Lord.
Blessings
are spoken words with power to bring forth that which did not exist to come
into existence. You have the ability to drive back evil forces by reversing the
curses by speaking and decreeing blessings (by faith) that do not exist in your
present situations as though they did. Even in your own family you can overcome
a curse by pronouncing blessings that did not exist as though they did. Curses
claim territory and blessings claim territory, so what is existing in the
territory that you live in? This can include the territories of your
neighborhood, church or work. Plead the blood of Jesus over the land you are
praying for and mark the territory Holy ground that not even witchcraft power
has room to operate in it. Pray that God dismantles all ungodly alters or
hidden fetishes (an occult practice to place ungodly objects on property to
curse people). Everything is subject to the power of the Holy Spirit and the
blood of Jesus. Even pronounce your workplace to be Holy ground. Decree and
declare everywhere you go to be Holy ground unto the Lord and invitee the
presence of the Holy Spirit to invade that place and evict demonic forces. It does
not matter where you are at-dedicate everything to God and where your feet
touches the ground. Pronounce blessings over every single person who has cursed
you. You want your enemies to come to know Jesus as Lord. Shield yourself from
being offended by people’s actions. You don’t want to curse someone with your
lips and opening doors of unforgiveness. Practice daily repentance, forgiveness
and humility to shield your spirit from being contaminated by offense. Speak
blessings into your life and other people to reverse the curse.
Sherline Watchu, The Power of Speaking Blessings to Break a
Curse
Stop blocking God’s blessings by speaking negatively.
God wants to bless you but you can become a hindrance to receiving God’s
blessings when you speak things that are contrary to God’s Word. Make a decision
to watch what comes from your mouth. When you speak negative words you’re claiming
those words over yourself or others. Words are seeds that can yield a good or
bad crop. The essence of our being was spoken by God-He spoke and then we were
created. Blessings and curses are set into motion by the words we speak.
When
you live a lifestyle of speaking out blessings over yourself and others, God
will take notice and you WILL ATTRACT THE ATTENTION OF HEAVEN!
John Paul Jackson, The Mystery of Blessing and Cursing
MEDITATE
ON THESE SCRIPTURES:
Death
and life are in the power of the tongue, and that they love shall eat the fruit
thereof.
Proverbs
18:21
You will eat what you
speak! The outcome of your future is a byproduct of what you speak.
