DECREE A THING


October 28, 2013


In the book of 1KINGS 17:1, Bible says, “And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.” As a result of that statement, there was no rain for three years.

Job 22:28 says, “Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.” Prov 18:21 says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” Your mouth is a power house. It houses your tongue that can be used to either bring about death or life.

If your refuse to decree to your situation, no matter your degree in life, you will keep on struggling with that situation. Num 14:28 says, “Say unto them,  As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you.” What are you saying in the ears of God? A closed mouth is a closed destiny.

In the valley of dry bones, God told the man, open your mouth and decree that these bones would receive the breath of God and they shall live, that sinews, flesh and skin shall cover them and there shall be breath of life in them. No matter how dead or dry that situation is, your mouth has been empowered to bring life to it.

However, it is worthy of note that he whose mouth shall decree a thing and it shall stand shall be he whose mouth is clean and whose heart is pure. Holiness sanctifies your tongue and makes it potent. Iniquity makes your decree noisy babbles. Every decree that comes out of a holy mouth gets established!  

Have a testimony-filled day!
