READ YOUR RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. YOU’RE THE EXPRESSION OF YOUR WORDS - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME. FRIDAY, AUGUST 5TH 2016.
For
the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword,
piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and
marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart (Hebrews
4:12).
The
most important natural gift given to human beings is the ability to talk. God
gave us this special ability so we can be like Him. Words are not a language;
words are spirits. Jesus said, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh
profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they
are life” (John 6:63).
Your
life is the character of your words. You’re what your words, your ideas, your
thoughts, and your opinions express. What you see when you look at “you” every
day at home, in the office, in the streets, or at the marketplace, is the
outward embodiment of your words, ideas, and opinions. You are your words. No
man is ever different from his words. If a man’s words are defective, then his
character will be twisted. You’re the expression of your words.
In
Matthew 12:37, the Lord Jesus said, “For by thy words thou shalt be justified,
and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.” This means if a man will be saved,
it will be because of his words, and if he will be damned, it‘ll be because of
his words. It’s important therefore, that as a child of God, you talk right.
Put God’s Word on your lips and keep yourself in health, safety, prosperity,
and victory.
You’re
not the physical body that you see. The reflection you see when you look in a
mirror isn’t all there is about you. You’re a spirit being, and your physical
body is just your house; your domicile. In the realm of the spirit, when God
looks at you, He sees your words, not just flesh and bones. When you speak,
your words go into the realm of the spirit and they never die. One day, you’ll
see your words and you’ll be amazed that they look exactly like you.
CONFESSION
My
tongue is a tree of life, and my spirit is a reservoir of God’s Word. Out of my
heart and my mouth flow the rivers of life, impacting my world with blessings,
in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Study:
|| Matthew 12:36-37 AMP But I tell you, on the Day of Judgment people
will have to give an accounting for every careless or useless word they speak.
37 For by your words [reflecting your spiritual condition] you will be
justified and acquitted of the guilt of sin; and by your words [rejecting me]
you will be condemned and sentenced.” ||
||
James 3:2-6 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! 6
And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our
members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of
nature; and it is set on fire of hell. ||
