Today I was listening to Pandora and the rotation of songs had a very specific theme….it’s not over. As I began to really meditate on this I thought about the scriptures and how the word says in Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Have you ever just thought about the power that we possess? I mean it blows my mind that God has trusted us to speak what he has already told us. Life and it more abundantly. That’s Gods promise. John 10:10 says: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
When tragedy comes our way we have the power to speak ourselves out of it.
The word of God has current day applications. What I mean by that is we can apply it to our everyday situations. He has given us a roadmap on how to speak and but action to our faith. You know the Bible states in Malachi 3:10: Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the LORD Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it. He was talking about the tithe (in your time, your talent, and your treasure). He says to test HIM. Us test GOD….I dare you to try HIM. Do it because it ain’t over. The situations and circumstances that you find yourself dealing with are a setup for God to prove HIMSELF might in your life.
Shalom.
