Your life moves in the direction that you speak! But you can break the pattern if you need to. When your thoughts have been set straight again, your self-image will automatically be adjusted based on what the word of God says about you. When your self-image more accurately reflects who you truly are, the consequence is that your way of speaking will be changed. You will speak in the direction that you want your life to go.
You can try it right now! Go off somewhere where no one can hear you and proclaim the following 12 truths out loud:
I, (your name), proclaim that I am blessed:
-with God’s supernatural wisdom, and that I have a purpose and a clear focus for my life.
-with creativity, courage, opportunities and abundance
-with a strong will and self-discipline
-with a great family, friends, good health, faith and favor
-with success, supernatural strength and development, and God’s protection
-with an obedient heart and a positive attitude to life
-with the blessing of Abraham, so that every curse, evil word and all evil that has been directed toward me is now broken off of me in Jesus’ name
-in the city and in the country, when I go in and when I go out
- and that everything that I do is successful
-and that God’s overwhelming, enormous grace and goodness are in me and with me
-with a fantastic life.
How did that feel? Wasn’t it wonderful?! Do you know why that felt so good? Because you just proclaimed who you are in Christ. Now imagine yourself in the future always speaking in alignment with the truths that you have just proclaimed! Not one negative word will cross your lips. Instead, everything that comes out of your mouth will be filled with love, faith and hope. When others are speaking of defeat, you will speak of hope! When others are criticizing, you are speaking of possibilities! You haven’t just changed your self-image – you have gained a new vocabulary!
