Yes, Jesus Loves Me

No doubt you have heard, read or know by heart this famous scripture: For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. – Hebrews 4:12

The Word is quick (by the Spirit), and you know it is powerful, but do you know what it means that it’s “two-edged?” To be two-edged means to be “two-mouthed.” When God’s words become your words, a weapon is produced that cannot be withstood.

Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. – Revelation 19:15

One of the most important strategies God gives you for overcoming any obstacle – even your own mind – is learning the discipline of speaking right words. Let God get ahold of your mouth and your life will change.

In Deuteronomy 10:1-9, God makes it clear that you speak victory before you get victory. Go ahead, look it up! You will notice the number of times the priests and officers were told to “speak” to the people, that they were told “do not fear” and “trust the Lord” for victory. The point here is that before anything is set into order, certain things must be spoken.

You see, the stage for your success, your upgrade, and your God-given destiny was set, and victory assured by the Word spoken over you and directed by God Himself before you were formed in your mother’s womb. When you join Him in speaking words of victory, purpose, faith and life over yourself, hell just has to flee!
