“For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith”– Mark 11:23
LIGHT FOR NOW: Words carry within themselves the ability to come to pass. That’s how powerful they are.
The believer should learn to give account of his words. 1Peter 2:21-22 “For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth”. “Who did no sin… neither was guile found in his mouth”. The word “guile” means something unusual to entrap. The word “mouth” is in reference to words “his words (Jesus’ words). No fault was found in his words – John 1:47 “Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!” Jesus mastered his words. John 7:45-46 “Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him? The officers answered, “Never man spake like this man”. No one spoke like him. Matthew 26:61, 65 “And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days”. Verse 65 “Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy”. He was said to speak as one who had authority.
What was remarkable about him were his words. He spoke unambiguously. John 6:35, 41 “And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst” Verse 41 “The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven”. The Pharisees sought to kill him for his words. That was how he functioned in the earth. John 6:51 “I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world”. A believer must, therefore, learn to place value on his words and speak up boldly, loudly, and unambiguously. Glory!
