...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.I think sometimes we miss what He said. There is spirit life in the words that I speak.
(John 6:63)
That’s why it is important for us to agree with God, and to say what God says. When we talk about “confession”, that is actually what we are talking about: agreeing with God. When we mention confession, most people think we are referring to confessing our sins. If we sin, we should confess our sins to God. But here we are talking about agreeing with God. That is the confession of God’s Word.
Words carry spiritual forces. Words transmit fear; words transmit faith. Words transmit your image to others. God’s Word transmits God’s image – the devil’s word transmits the devil’s image.
If I wanted to give someone an image of my car, I would start describing it. Every word I speak would transmit a clearer image of that car. Inside of me right now I can see that car mentally. I can walk around it. That is a mental image. I can describe it in such detail that you could recognize it when you see it, even though you have never seen it with your natural eye. My words produce an image of that car inside you. I transmit to you the image I have with words.
Words are powerful transmitters. Words transmit fear images. Words transmit faith images.
Remember Paul said,
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.Today you can have an image inside of you. You may even have the Word of God for it. The Spirit of God may be moving concerning the very thing you have an image of, but until you release that image through faith-filled words, very little will happen to bring that into being.
(Romans 10:17)
You must speak that image. You must give voice to it. You give substance to that image by releasing your faith in words.
