The Third Eye Perspective:
Thought for Today – “You Have To Speak “Life” Into Your Life…”
The Bible states that the “tongue has the power of life and also the power of death, those who love to talk will reap consequences from their words”. Proverbs 18:21 (NLT). Now notice that “I” didn’t place my opinion on that, I merely quoted the Bible verse. And if the Bible says it, then we know the Lord said it. And if the Lord said it, then we know it is 110% true because God is not capable of lying! But what exactly does that verse mean? Are we to take it as literal as the verse is, or are we to break it down, dissect it, and get some sort of “figurative” meaning from it? The correct answer would be “literal” meaning. In other words, the tongue has the ability to speak life, Blessings and Prosperity into any of your situations in life, and it can also speak death and destruction into your life as well. I don’t know who the Lord wanted to hear this particularly customized message this morning, but this one has been weighing on my heart all weekend! If you look around your surroundings, (Family, Friends, Job, Social Media, The News Outlets, and yes even your Church of choice) you won’t have any trouble hearing examples of someone either speaking “Life” or “Death” to, over, or about themselves and also someone else. It seems to be a normal or “accepted” human frequent practice! It is so common, it makes you wonder if people even know they are doing it? Could they be doing it out of lack of knowledge? Or are they doing it knowingly???
First let’s discuss the dangers of speaking negatively and the repercussions that could and often do result from it. How many times have you heard someone make statements, very innocent statements like “nothing ever goes right in my life, I’m just a failure, I can’t do anything right, nomatter what I try, I fail at it or it doesn’t work out in my favor ever?”. Or worse when you speak negatively about someone else, “I hate so-in-so more than anything in the world, I wish she/he would die a painful death, etc….no need to elaborate on this particular one because I’m sure you get the picture I’m trying to paint. When you think, act, and especially talk negatively about any aspect of your life, you are activating that negativity in that area or aspect of your life. And depending on the words that come out of your mouth, YOU might just be the very reason you are experiencing so much turmoil in those areas, not someone else, or some “dark forces” at work. Yes Satan is the master behind Chaos and Destruction, but he can’t do anything to your destiny unless you open that door for him, and even then, he can only DELAY your ultimate destination destiny wise if YOU invite him into your life or situation. He does NOT have the power to override the Lords plans for our lives! That is a pretty good fact to know isn’t it? So let me repeat that to make sure you totally understand what I’m trying to say here, “SATAN IS NOT ALWAYS THE ORIGINATOR OF THE PROBLEMS, CHAOS, AND DESTRUCTION IN YOUR LIFE!!! SOMETIMES HE JUST AIDS IN MAKING IT WORSE ONLY AFTER YOU HAVE INVITED HIM INTO THE SITUATION BY OPENING THE DOOR WITH YOUR NEGATIVE TALK! When we as human beings experience “Storms” in our lives, more times than not we tend to speak negative about the outcome of them, “this situation isn’t going to get any better nomatter what I do”, Or “why do I even bother, it’s not going to work out in my favor, never does”. Believe it or not, that mentality has cost us humans so much extra grief that wasn’t on the menu for us to experience....And it was this mentality that created just enough doubt (or a window of opportunity) for Satan to leap thru it and start to dispatch his demons to wreak their havoc on that situation and any other they can affect.
Now, let’s flip the script here for a bit. That very same tongue that is capable of speaking chaos, death, and destruction in our lives is also capable of speaking /enacting “Peace in the middle of a major storm, Blessings and Prosperity, and also Life”. God gave us that unlimited power and the “operators manual” (Bible) on how to use/unleash it at will too! But how often do we actually do that? I would bet lest that 10% of the time, am I right? We are so quick to throw our hands up in defeat before even making an attempt to try to fight back. That’s exactly what Satan wants/needs us to do actually in order for him to be successful in keeping you “defeated”. All Satan needs from us is a little small opportunity to create “doubt” in our minds about any situation we are dealing with. When it does that, he has the “foot in the door” he needs to walk on thru that open door/window. Instead of immediately throwing your hands up and speaking defeat, negativity, initially, try speaking “life, success over that situation, and especially giving Satan a closed door “Get Thee Behind Me Satan, In The Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, MY Lord and Savior” and watch him and his demons flee your situation! Now that doesn’t mean that your situation with magically disappear, but then again it could do just that right then and there! But chances are, that it will just block Satan’s involvement in the situation and the other will just play itself out the way God had it designed to play out. Stop speaking negative at the first sign of a “Storm” and speak directly to that storm, demand it pass you on by, or leave your house, your job, your marriage, your relationship, your Church, your family, etc…at the very BEGINNING of your initial contact with it! Can I leave you with a question to ponder today, and a very serious one at that???
“How often do you speak “LIFE” as opposed to “Death, Chaos and Destruction in the midst of your “Storms”????
Will the real Church folk say AMEN?????
“Today, choose to “Ride or Die” with Jesus Christ!”
