The words you speak will determine the course of your future. You can choose to speak words full of doubt, or you can choose to speak words full of faith.

Proverbs 18:21 tells us about our words: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."

The Word of God will inspire you to say the right things. If you want health, dominion, and victory working in your life, you must speak words that will allow them to work for you.

It's Up To You
Don't depend on a minister to say those things for you. You are the one that is going to have to speak words of life if you expect them to go to work for you. Say what the Bible says!

Romans 8:37 says, "Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us." Call yourself a conqueror! The book of Genesis says,
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
(Gen. 1:26-27)
Consider yourself as God does, as a person with dominion on this earth. Christ lives in you, so you can be bold with your words.

Let's look at what Jesus said about the importance of our words. Mark chapter 11 reads,
And Jesus answering saith unto them, "Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith."
(Mark 11:22-23)
Jesus taught that words are vital. He mentioned the act of speaking three times in this scripture. Jesus also said in Matthew 12:37, "For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned."

Check up on what you are saying about yourself and your circumstances. Have the attitude of Apostle Paul when he said in 2 Corinthians,
Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? If any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.
(2 Cor. 10:7)
Paul had the revelation that the very fiber of God lived on the inside of him. Do you believe that about yourself? Do you say that about yourself?

Empowered To Live As A King
God created you in His image and likeness. He empowered you to be a king. He sees you as a king and a priest on this earth. Notice Revelation 5:10: "And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth."

The word of a king has power. When you speak the words of God and act like a king who reigns, then there is power available. I encourage you to speak the words of Jesus daily. There is so much power available in your words. If you can tap into that power, then nothing will be impossible to you!

Jesus said this in Matthew chapter 17:
And Jesus said unto them, "Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you."
(Matt. 17:20)
You don't have to bow to sickness, it must bow to you because God empowered you to be a king on this earth.

You may have days when you think the Christian walk is too hard. You may wonder why it seems God hasn't moved in your life. If you have had these thoughts, don't give up. Press in like never before. Jump into what God has to offer and don't be moved by your feelings or circumstances.

Take the bold step of faith and use the authority Jesus gave you. Put your dominion over the enemy to work by the words you speak! Remember what it says in Genesis:
And God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."
(Gen. 1:26-27)
God gave us this dominion so we can boldly use it on the enemy! Don't allow your authority to lie dormant inside you. Use your authority by speaking it!

Words of Authority
God's heart is for you to be free. Speak words of authority for deliverance from the cares of this world. For your words to work for you, you must be convinced that there is power in your words.

Believe you have the capacity to serve God the way He intended, with boldness and authority. God is faithful. Just because you make a mistake, He will not take away his free gifts of righteousness, grace, and authority!

Come up to the place He has called you to. Rise up to a new level in boldness and confidence in knowing you serve a living God who has given you power and authority to live victorious today!

God gave us the ability to accomplish His plan when our words line up with His words. Believe that your words will determine the course of your future. Understand that what you speak is vital to the way you live your life.

When you get a revelation of the importance of the words you speak, you can believe what Jesus said in Matthew. "Nothing shall be impossible unto you!"
