“Not that which goes into the mouth defiles a man; but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.”
MATTHEW 15:11
A lot of Christians have lost many things in their lives because of the carelessness of their speech. One of the ways to find out whether or not a person has faith is to listen to the words they speak. The devil is always looking for an occasion to take advantage of your negative confessions. You must know that the words you speak have a great influence over your life. No circumstance in your life should permit you to say anything negative, because you can use your mouth to disqualify yourself for a miracle.
What delayed the children of Israel from going into the Promised Land was not the devil but their own words. They said, “We are not able”. They conceded that their adversaries were stronger and mightier than they were and it would be impossible for them to conquer the land (Read Numbers 13:1-2; 25-33). These fearful statements delayed their entry into the Promised Land. Wrong confessions will cost you your victory. It may even be the reason why things have remained stagnant over the years. I want to encourage you today to learn to speak positively about any situation you may find yourself in.
PRAYER:
Pray and ask God to deliver you from negative confessions…….
