Speak Life

DAY 4 OF 5

The meaning behind the concept of speaking life is that you have real power. God-given power. With free-will comes both responsibility and strength. You have the power within yourself to shape your destiny with your words. Use your words to speak prophetically over where your life is headed. If you need to change, then say so! You were born to multiply all of the gifts and talents that are inside you. You were created to stand apart, not to stay where you are at. 

God wants progress and progression for you, not stagnation. You were born to rise above, not sink below!

Because faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not yet seen, the Bible says that we walk by faith, not by sight. Although your senses are deprived, your faith wlll allow you to carry on. Just because you cannot see it now does not mean that it will not come to fruition later.

It takes faith the size of a mustard seed, and a lot of hard work, but God always comes through.

I believe that speaking life all comes down directly to your attitude. You can’t always control your circumstances or surroundings. Bad things happen to good people sometimes. You can, however, control your attitude towards these situations. Your attitude will  be either an asset, or a liability. There is no in-between.

Speak life. Let your attitude reflect your faith. 

In every aspect of life, attitude is key. The attitude that you have walking into the office today will determine your level of success tomorrow. The attitude that you hold towards school work, chores, your career, your significant other, or difficult times will play either a positive or negative role in your life.

An attitude can be wordless. You don’t need to necessarily voice your opinions or frustrations for it to be felt. An attitude can not only plague your mind, but infect the minds of those around you as well. It is felt without being spoken. People who speak death have spoken it long before they have opened their mouths.

  1. What is your current attitude as of late? With your job? With your life?
     
  2. What can you do to try to maintain a better attitude during hardships?

About this Plan

Speak Life

Life itself is composed of choices. The choices that we make can lead us down many different paths.  In order to follow the path that God has set out before us, it is important for us to speak life over death. Speaking the word of God can change a situation, problem, even a life. In his latest plan, David Villa shares how we can speak life over death.
