We Also Believe And Therefore We SPEAK

I heard Joel Osteen tell of a man he knew who was believing to pay his house off. It was a standard 30-year mortgage and he had 23 years left. There didn’t seem to be any way he could do it. But he was bold enough to start speaking over his life the promises of his heavenly Father; Jehovah Jireh; the Lord our Provider. He chose to declare that God was his source, not his job. He chose to replace defeated thoughts with thoughts of victory, knowing that even though things can SEEM impossible, our God can DO the impossible.

Joel went on to share that several years ago the man received an inheritance from a family member that he had never met before. He didn’t even know they were related. This enabled the man to not only pay his house off but he paid a friend's house off as well. What was that? Explosive blessings!

Friend, when you believe God, you position yourself for a miracle. When you seek and obey Him you set yourself under the open windows of heaven. The bible says, “It is written: ‘I believed; therefore I have spoken.’ With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore SPEAK.” Something amazing happens when you declare His promises out loud – you activate the favor and power of the Creator of the universe on your behalf!

Don’t just hope for but be sure to DECLARE these promises over your life. Don’t let the enemy or the haters around you have the last word. Talk back to your opposition! Be persistent and diligent in this and you will see the victory and blessing God has in store for you!
