Prophesy over your life!

February 9, 2008 by lisasrestingplace

In the beginning God SAID, Let there be light, and there WAS light. Everything that God SAID, was created from absolutely nothing. With the exception of man. He took from the earth that had been created by the word of His mouth, and fashioned and formed His most spectacular and favored of all creatures. He then breathed His very breath of life into Adam and he became a living soul. In order to create Eve, he put Adam to sleep, took a rib, and sculpted a breathtaking masterpiece. Adam needed to asleep awhile, so Father God could spend some quality time with His precious new daughter. He then presented them to one another to walk side by side. After everything was finished that God had fashioned, He took a step back, observed His creation, and “saw that it was good”.

What does this have to do with prophesying over your life? When the Holy Spirit of God lives inside of you, you have His very breath in your lungs. The bible tells us that life and death are in the power of the tongue. We all know how words have edified, encouraged, and cheered us on in our journey, as well as words that have discouraged, crushed, and defeated us.

When you step back and observe your life, your family, your health, your….whatever….can you “see that it is good?” Words are powerful. The tongue is compared to a small rudder on a huge ship in the book of James. That is encouraging if you are given to “see the glass 1/2 full”. What needs to be turned around in your life?? The Lord says, “Open wide your mouth and I will fill it”. In Psalm 32:7 we read “You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance.” When you open your mouth and let Him fill it, the songs that deliver you from trouble will be from your own mouth!

Murmuring, complaining and negativity are the weeds that you plant in your own garden with seed from your heart and lips. Begin to speak life over your circumstances; over your health, over your finances; over your family, over our nation! Stop looking at what you can see, and begin to see as God sees. All things are possible for those who believe. The things you believe will be made manifest by the words that you speak. Prophesy LIFE over your life, and the lives of the ones you have influence over! Be a life giver with the fruit of your lips.

May God bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you and give you peace!!
