Speak Life!

Have you ever endured a trial in your finances, marriage, family/kids, or on your job that seemed to never cease? It seems as though you've prayed about it yet nothing seems to change. Well, have you spoken life into your situation? Prayer becomes null and void when your confessions don't support the request you've made to heaven.

For instance, in Ezekiel 37 the Lord told Ezekiel to speak to the valley of dry bones and when he did everything came together but still there was no life. Then Ezekiel called out to the winds of the four corners of the earth and commanded it to breathe life into the skeletal remains and life evolved! Praise God! What's dry in your life? Speak to it and command the breath of God to breathe life into that dry situation.

Another example of speaking life into dead situations is when Jairus' daughter was ill and Jesus was asked to come and see about her (Mark 5:35). As He was on His way, He was stopped by the woman with the issue of blood. See how distractions can pop up when you are in need of the miraculous? The good thing about it is there is enough of Him to go around as long as you stay in faith. Before Jesus could reach the house where Jairus' daughter was he was met by a man who said, "don't bother" the damsel is dead. Jesus then replied, "keep on believing" the damsel is not dead she's asleep-paraphrase. Jesus kicked all of the naysayers out so that he could set an atmosphere of faith to perform his miracle. As a result, she was raised from the dead.

To read more stories on the miraculous power of speaking life to dead things, read:

1. Lazarus raised from the dead after 4 days (John 11:43-44)

2. The barrenness of Sarah's dead womb (Gen. 17)

When you pray believe that your prayers have been heard and answered. Most importantly watch your confessions. Make sure they remain positive, in line with the word of God, and in line with the prayer you've prayed!

Speak life!!!!!!!
