God’s words in your mouth is as powerful as God’s word in His mouth

• By Gideon Adegunle

Bible Reference: Matthew 12:37

Words are keys to spiritual happenings. In fact, what brought creation into being was the spoken Word. The technology of the spirit operates through words — both spoken and written.

Some believe spoken words carry more power than written words, but that’s not true. When life contradicts what God has said, it is the written Word that stands as unshakable proof. Written words are fail-proof—they capture, preserve, and give reference to the spoken Word.

Words are what was used to lay the Foundation of the world!

“By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, and by the breath of His mouth all their host.”— Psalm 33:6

“Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.”— Hebrews 11:3

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… All things were made through Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made.”— John 1:1,3

What can the Word of God do?

The Word of God creates — both in the spiritual and physical realms. Creation begins in the spirit; manifestation follows in the natural. Trying to alter what’s already settled in the spirit is spiritual ignorance. Even the devil knows this — that’s why he goes to the courtroom of heaven to make his case. He gets words from God so He can accomplish His own agenda.

“God Himself, as revealed in the book of Ephesians, had to first bless us in the spiritual realm before those blessings could manifest in the physical.”

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ.”— Ephesians 1:3

The Word of God can correct faulty foundations.

If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? (Psalm 11:3) — they turn to the Word.

The Word is the master key of the universe — by it, nations are healed, minds are renewed, and unclean spirits are expelled from mortal bodies.

It is the spiritual technology God honors above His own name:

“You have magnified Your word above all Your name.” — Psalm 138:2 (KJV)

In conclusion, as believers, we must be mindful of our words. Salvation, healing, and deliverance are all results of what we speak. The power of words has been given to us—what we bind on earth is bound in heaven. Let’s use this key wisely prayer can only be effective by the quality of your words.

Watch and Pray!

Vague Expectation

Vague Expectation, Faith should have a clear direction, even when the method and timing of the answer remain in God’s hands. Definite expectation identifies the need, presents it to God, prepares responsibly and remains attentive to His direction. God does not require us to understand every detail before we pray. However, when clarity is available, we should not hide indecision behind spiritual language.
