(a chapter from my book, Facing Change)
The Bible says that we are to speak our way to freedom, but there is a condition: we are to speak the Words of Life. [Proverbs 18:21 NIV] “The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” Our confession has the power of life or death. Choose life. Choose to confess words of life, as opposed to words of death. Speak the words that create life. Speak kind words. Speak encouraging words. Speak the truth in love.
- Speak kind, positive and encouraging words to yourself and to others.
- Recognizing what you need to change in your life, and do it.
- Design your own battle plans. Prepare a list of favorite scriptures for emergency situations. Put your list in a familiar place so that you can always find it in an emergency. Use this as a tool that is well within your reach when you feel that emotional downturn in the offing. Pray and speak the Word of God confidently “… because it is with our hearts that we believe and are made right with God and it is with our mouth that we confess and are saved.” – [Romans 10:10 NLT]
