Speak life to every situation
By Chidi Okoroafor
Key Verse: Numbers 14:28, “So tell them, As surely as I live, declares the Lord, I will do to you the very things I heard you say” (NIV).
If you want to know where you are going to be five years from now, listen to your words. Whether you know it or not, each time you open your mouth, you are prophesying your future. If you want to be stronger, healthier and happier, then start declaring it today. We talk more to ourselves than we do to anybody else. The question is: what is that you are saying to yourself?
Jeremiah was young and he did not have a lot of self-confidence. When he heard God’s promises, rather than feeling blessed, Jeremiah was afraid. He said, “God, I can’t do that. I can’t speak to the nations. I’m too young. I won’t even know what to say.” But God answered, “Jeremiah, say not that you are young. Like Paul, you can declare today, ‘I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me (Philippians 4:13).
Don’t let your mouth stop your blessing. Negative words hinder God’s promises from coming to fruition in your life. It is wrong to limit God with negative confessions from your lips. God responds to you according to what you speak into His ears (Numbers 14:28). God had already promised the Israelites the land of Canaan, a land flowing with milk and honey. God instructed them to go and possess it, but they said “We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we” (Numbers 13:31). They forgot that it wasn’t about them; God had already told them what He would do. So, it wasn’t about what they could do, but what they could do with God. And if you continue to read in Numbers 14, they continued to talk about how they would die in the wilderness. The whole congregation began to cry and mourn, except for two of them Joshua and Caleb. They were the only ones that said, “Let us go up at once and possess the land.”
