For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned (Matthew 12:37).
Words are “things”; they carry spiritual substance. Oftentimes, God’s people are robbed of greater blessings because they speak the wrong words. Your language is the expression of your understanding; it reflects what you know. And sadly, many have developed a language of limitation because they’ve been wrongly influenced by their environment.
As a child of God, you must speak right. This is beyond mere positive thinking or motivational communication. It means speaking truth, and the Word of God is truth (John 17:17). When you speak the right words of God’s truths long enough, they’ll communicate a mindset to your spirit and produce results that are consistent with that mindset.
It’s not merely the words themselves that make or mar; it’s the language they form, the system of thought they represent. That’s why you must speak in accordance with the revelation knowledge of God’s Word. For example, some would say, “Oh, when we started worshipping in church, the presence of God came down upon us.” It sounds spiritual, but it’s incorrect.
The presence of God doesn’t come down from heaven when you worship; you carry His presence. You’re His temple, and God lives in you permanently. He doesn’t come and go. When we come together in worship, His presence is manifested, not imported. Similarly, don’t say, “We enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise.” That was David’s revelation under the old covenant. Today, we’re in His presence; we live there. You don’t enter and exit God’s presence; you dwell there permanently. Hallelujah!
Train yourself to use words consistent with your divine nature. Align your language with the New Testament revelation of who you are in Christ, and you’d experience ever-increasing glory and consistent victory and progress in life.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the revelation of your Word that enlightens my spirit. My words are full of grace and power, producing in me victory, excellence and glory. I speak always in line with your truth, expressing your divine thoughts through my words, and I’m continually transformed from glory to glory by the power of your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Proverbs 18:21 KJV
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Mark 11:23 KJV
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.
James 3:2-5 KJV
For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body. [3] Behold, we put bits in the horses’ mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. [4] Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth. [5] Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
