One of the ways you can put your faith into practice is by using your words to paint a picture of the kind of life you want. Your tongue is the brush that paints the portrait of your future.
Psalm 45:1 (NKJV)
My heart is overflowing with a good theme; I recite my composition concerning the King; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
Think of your tongue as the pen that writes the script of the life you desire. You are either speaking your heart’s desire or you are speaking the lack of its reality in your life. Your words are either bringing the supernatural power of God into action in your life or keeping God’s power idle in your life. Your tongue is the pen that describes with words what your future will look like. Your life and your future will be enhanced by or limited by the words that come out of your mouth. The outcomes that will take place in your future will be created by the words that come out of your mouth today. You are responsible for the results your words are producing.
When you speak your heart’s desire according to God’s will, you are agreeing with God. Living in agreement with God means living in accordance with His Word. Living in accordance with God’s Word means believing and confessing according to who you are in Christ. Continue to believe and confess who God says you are. Continue to believe and confess what God says you have. Continue to believe and confess what God says you can do.
When you are in agreement with God’s Word (believing and confessing who you are in Christ), your life will prosper with the results. You please God when you speak words that produce prosperous results. (See Isaiah 55:11) Speaking God’s Word always produces prosperous results!
