For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: (1 Peter 3:10).
Can a Christian truly have an exciting life? Sure! God has ordained your life for glory and for beauty. So, there’s no need to live in worry, for worry only makes you look older than you really are. Some people get frustrated in life because no matter how hard they try, they don’t get good results. Only from such folks will you hear statements like, “Life is not a bed of roses.” How untrue that is!
Life can indeed be a bed of roses for you if you function according to the principles of the Kingdom. One key principle is that you have to talk the faith-talk. Talking the faith-talk isn’t negotiable if you desire to get the kind of results God has ordained for you to receive. The faith-talk is our talk in Zion. In Zion, we don’t talk sickness. Isaiah 33:24 says, “And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick….” We don’t say we’re sick, not because we’re trying to deny that we’re sick, but because we’re not supposed to fall sick. The only reason you’ll find a sick inhabitant of Zion is only if such a person has stopped talking the Zion-talk.
The same goes for your finances, relationships, businesses; refuse to talk fear like the rest of the world. In the world, they talk fear, but in Zion, we talk faith. Be like the Shunammite woman, who refused to talk fear. When the Prophet Elisha sent his servant to ask her about the condition of her son, even though he had just died, she replied, “It is well.”
Activate the faith-talking lifestyle by allowing the indwelling Word of God proceed out of your mouth always. That way, nothing will ever happen to you by chance and you’ll constantly find yourself on top and in charge of every situation.
Confession
I refuse to talk fear or failure because I’m more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus. All things necessarily work together for my good because I love God and I’m the called according to His divine purpose. I’m a victor, glory to God!
