We've received many prophetic words about this being a time to walk in a new authority and especially in our decrees. Yes, what we "speak" is very key for us to move forward.
This is a most excellent article by Rabbi Curt Landry...as he is full of wisdom on this subject that will really help you right now.
Read these words by Rabbi Curt and let it bring life and action to your circumstances today. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)
God is always with us...but it is important that we do not take it for granted; that we do not simply expect things and blessings to continually occur, or worse yet, a relationship with Him without our needing to ask, seek, or knock.
"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened." (Matthew 7:7-8 NKJV)
"Ask, and the gift is yours. Seek, and you'll discover. Knock, and the door will be opened for you. For every persistent one will get what he asks for. Every persistent seeker will discover what he longs for. And everyone who knocks persistently will one day find an open door." (Matthew 7:7-8 TPT)
Ask, Seek and Knock
God is willing to guide and teach us, even to open doors, but we must first be willing to ask, seek, and knock. Yes, God always supplies our basic needs—even if we fail to ask, seek, and knock—but we were created to be more than conquerors! We are shaped to overcome and rise above, not through flesh-filled efforts, but through prayer—through God!
"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer." (Psalm 19:14)
The enemy cannot win against God—that is a fact—and God is in us! He has given us the power to speak out that which is in Heaven so it can be made manifest on Earth. And when our hearts and mouths speak in unison with God's—our strength and Redeemer—mighty things happen!
No other creation has the ability to speak. God made no other in His image/likeness.
God SPOKE us into being...and it was so. He gave us breath, life, and a voice so we might speak, walk and act in His ways...being like Him...talking like Him.
God gave Adam the AUTHORITY to SPEAK into all His creations. Adam SPOKE names to each creature, and in doing so, their very nature was made. God not only allowed Adam to speak like Him, but to create...just like Him. The Creator of all!
Now, in this we should not allow ourselves to become prideful. After all, God is above us. He is the One who gave us this beautiful gift of speech and the creation it brings. And we, through man's fall, have misused this gift...
"...all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God..." (Romans 3:23)
"...I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment." (Matthew 12:36)
We are not worthy to speak like our Father in Heaven, yet, through that very gift, we find life. It is God's love, goodness and mercy—allowing us to speak with the authority of Heaven, through the circumcision of our hearts in Jesus' Blood—that we can reverse curses and redeem what has been lost!
Speak Life
"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit." (Proverbs 18:21)
"From the fruit of their mouth a person's stomach is filled; with the harvest of their lips they are satisfied." (Proverbs 18:20 NIV)
When we speak life; those things from God, His Word, His love...we are not only satisfied, but are filled with life and God's goodness!
Many gifts are our birthright in God, yet, because of words spoken hastily or without prayerful thought, many blessings are withheld by the enemy; for the enemy's authority is only over things contrary to God.
When what we speak becomes contrary to God, we become contrary to God, and nothing contrary to God can have His blessings poured in, for new wine in an old wineskin can cause it to burst!
"...no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins." (Mark 2:22)
So, if we are to win against the enemy who oppresses us, we must speak life! We need to speak what God shows/tells us—that which is good, and pleasant. We need to fix our eyes upon our Father, and one of the best places to begin doing that is in the Word itself.
Speaking From the Throne Room
"It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life." (John 6:63)
"...what has been stored up in your hearts will be heard in the overflow of your words!" (Matthew 12:34 TPT)
When our hearts speak words straight from the throne room of God, chains break! We begin to resemble our Father as our words, in alignment with His, speak joy and life on our behalf.
It is time we speak those things God desires into existence, setting our eyes upon our Father and being His light on Earth.
"Believe in Me so that rivers of living water will burst out from within you, flowing from your innermost being, just like the Scripture says!" (John 7:38 TPT)
"...fasten your thoughts on every glorious work of God, praising Him always." (Philippians 4:8 TPT)
