The Bible talks clearly about the power of our words and the confession of our mouths. Whatever we speak will shape what we believe, how we act, what we have and eventually the life that we live — our destinies. Let’s look at a few Scriptures:
“For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” — Matthew 12:37
“For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.” — Mark 11:23
A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth, from the produce of his lips he shall be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. — Proverbs 18:20-21
For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. — Romans 10:10
And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak. — 2. Corinthians 4:13
Start confessing yourself into victory every day in every area. Fight the good fight of faith with the Word of God spoken out of your mouth which is the sword of the Spirit (1. Tim 1:18; Eph 6:17).
