SPEAK GOD’S WORD BOLDLY
For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him (John 3:34).
Isn’t it amazing that the Lord Jesus would say in John 20:21, “…Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you?” It means you have His authority. The Father gave the Lord Jesus the Spirit without measure because He sent Him and therefore honoured every word that Jesus spoke while He walked the earth.
Likewise, you also have been given the Spirit without measure, and the Father honours your words spoken in faith. Do you now see why you should always be bold to affirm the Word of God? When you speak God’s Word boldly, heaven responds, angels act, and results follow.
Speaking God’s Word boldly is much more than loud recitation of Scripture. Rather, it’s declaring divine realities with authority —words that carry the same power that created the universe. Remember, the Holy Spirit is the power of the God-head. For example, when God said in Genesis 1:3, “…Let there be light: and there was light,” it was the Holy Spirit that caused the light to appear out of darkness. He’s the “doer” of the work.
The Master said in John 14:10, “…the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.” Here, He was referring to the Holy Spirit as the Father in Him. He’s the Father in you. Hallelujah! Therefore, when you speak words of power, healing, deliverance and life, the Holy Spirit incubates on them and causes them to produce results.
The Lord Jesus said, “…the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63). That same divine quality is in your mouth when you speak His Word. That’s why you can command situations, rebuke sickness, call forth provision, and speak peace to any storm.
Don’t speak carelessly. Don’t speak the language of the world: fear, unbelief and falsehood. Train yourself to say what God says, no matter what you see or feel. Fill your heart with the Word (Colossians 3:16) so that your mouth becomes an instrument of creative power.
CONFESSION
The Word of God is in my heart and in my mouth, and I speak it forth with boldness and authority. My words are spirit and life, producing health, peace, favour and abundance for me and those around me. I’m walking in preordained pathways, executing and fulfilling the will of the Father, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY:
Acts 4:29-31
And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, 30 by stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus. 31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
John 6:63
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Hebrews 13:5-6
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. 6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear What man shall do unto me.
