2020 | SPEAK - Kyle Self

[00:00:00] Speaker A: So, did you know that your words are like seeds? Do you know that your words actually plant and grow things into your life? In fact, you are where you are today because of what you've been saying about yourself. [00:00:14] Speaker B: Amen. [00:00:16] Speaker A: I'll give you an example. I'm going to talk about the gym a lot these days because I really struggle in that place. It's a torture chamber. I was going to the gym, and I'd see these guys all, you know, 25, 30 years old, and I know they're taking extra stuff to get that big, but that's okay. I'm sitting there going, I'll never be that big. I'll never be in shape. I just might as well give up. I'm never going to lose weight. I'm just getting older. I would begin to say things like that in the gym, and I realized that I'd get to this threshold, and I'd quit about every three months, I'd quit the gym, and then I'd get upset about three months of gaining all the weight back that I lost. I'd go back in the gym. So it was just this tormented cycle every year of gaining weight, losing weight, gaining weight, losing. But I realized my words were manifesting in my life. [00:01:06] Speaker B: Amen. [00:01:07] Speaker A: It's something as simple as that. So me and Pastor Tina have created this powerful, eye opening series to help you take a closer look at your words. [00:01:17] Speaker B: Amen. [00:01:18] Speaker A: So let's go to psalms 18 and 21. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. You know, the tongue can bring death, and it can bring life. It's a wellspring. The tongue is the biggest attracting force in our lives. Because when we speak well of others and we're positive, people want to be around us. [00:01:47] Speaker B: Amen. [00:01:48] Speaker A: But when we're negative all the time, complaining about everything and saying, I don't really like what I'm wearing, don't I look fat in it, I'm talking about me. [00:01:56] Speaker B: Amen. Amen. [00:02:00] Speaker A: And so when we're saying these things, people don't want to be around. But we need to learn how to reprogram our words that will plant a garden of beauty in our lives. [00:02:09] Speaker B: Amen. [00:02:11] Speaker A: And ultimately changing our situations. And ultimately, our life will change by our words. Our voices carry so much defeat in them sometimes. Like, we say things and we constantly contradict ourselves. I am the head and not the tail. I am the lender not the borrower. And we contradict ourselves five minutes later when we get a bill and we go, I'm broke. What do we really believe? Because what we speak out of our mouths is actually what we believe. We got to reprogram our words. Not by guarding our words, not by just casting every thought and imagination captive. No. We got to start changing and reprogramming the wiring in our heart to the victory that we now have in grace through Christ Jesus. [00:02:59] Speaker B: Amen. [00:03:00] Speaker A: I ain't getting a lot of amens out of this one. Praise God. Hallelujah. I'm kidding with you. So as you let your voices of defeat go and fear, you pick up the voice of victory. How many want victory in your life right now? [00:03:12] Speaker B: Come on. [00:03:13] Speaker A: Amen. That's everybody? Anybody didn't raise your hand? The altars are now open. [00:03:17] Speaker B: Amen. [00:03:19] Speaker A: Your life will never be the same. You can bless your future with your words. Now, I've heard through the word of faith that, you know, say what you have, that you can curse your life. And me and Tina studied that out. We were studying the word, can a Christian under grace through Jesus be cursed? No, the curse has been broken because Jesus took all cursings on him. But do you know, we may not get what we deserve, but we do get what we believe. [00:03:48] Speaker B: Amen. [00:03:49] Speaker A: And so if in my heart, I believe that I'm never going to be in shape, I'm never going to be rich, I'm never going to have this. I'm always being left out. I'm always misunderstood. Well, I'm just a square peg in the round hole. Nobody really wants me around. I'm always, you know, people just don't get me and I'm okay with it. You're actually speaking those things and manifesting those things and you're getting what you believe. [00:04:13] Speaker B: Amen. Amen. [00:04:15] Speaker A: I'm a little hot up here, guys. Not hot as in fan, but the mic is a little hot. And so the reality is, is that our words are seeds and we will eat the fruit of our seeds. God's really been taking me on a journey with my words. [00:04:30] Speaker B: Amen. [00:04:32] Speaker A: You know, I've been saying, well, during this season of October to January, you know, people, they tend to start going on holidays and we won't see much people. I started saying, you know what? Our church will, even though they're taking holidays, they will see church as a lifestyle, not as a. Not as an elective in their lives. I've changed my wording, even over us as a people. [00:04:54] Speaker B: Amen. [00:04:56] Speaker A: And I've changed my wording over my finances. I mean, can I tell you, finances can be scary. Anybody want to be real with me? Amen. When the bank, when the baby needs a new pair of shoes and the doctor bill's due, you got some things that you need to pay for and no money. Amen. And Bill collectors, they love to call you in the midday and say, well, if you'd like to pay it right now, we can sell this right now. And they'll even offer it for a little bit less than what you owe, and you still ain't got no money, even though you want to pay. Can I tell you that finances can be the area that throw you off key. [00:05:29] Speaker B: Amen. [00:05:30] Speaker A: But I'm blessed. I'm preferred. I'm getting promotions people give unto me. I have houses I did not build and wells I did not dig. When I enter into a city, I'm blessed going in and blessed going out. I am preferred, not abandoned. I'm not orphaned. I'm accepted. I am a son of God, therefore I have speak what I have in Jesus name. [00:05:52] Speaker B: Amen. [00:05:54] Speaker A: Amen. In essence, what you're focused on will begin to produce in your life. I can't stand gossip. It is the biggest negative briar branch in your life. Well, people, you know what she said about, you know what he said, you know what they did, blah, blah, blah, blah. I can't stand it because it just produces negativity in your life. Toxic. Makes you all sick with it. You know what I'm saying? You ever been around somebody just loves to talk trash about everybody? I almost said another word. Oh, Jesus, clear my mind. That wants to talk trash about everybody they can't stand but five minutes of talking good about something. Good to see you. How's the weather? You know what they did? Amen. Where am I going with that? Where I'm going with it that's in your heart. You're mad at everything. You need to change your heart because you're speaking it into your life. You ain't got no friends, and everybody's abandoning you and thinking that your life is crazy because you talk about how crazy your life is. [00:06:54] Speaker B: Amen. [00:06:56] Speaker A: Pastor Kyle, I need you to get out of my cookie jar. I'm doing it. Don't worry. So I'll talk about myself. I can remember a time when Alex was about seven years old, and he was listening to me and his mom talk about finances, heartbroken disappointments in our needs. And we were going on about, you know, well, we ain't got no money and it's kind of hard to, you know, this takes money to do this, and we've stepped into full time ministry. What do we got to do? How do we got to do. Do we got to create a partner later? Do we got to do this? And this little seven year old voice piped up and said, well, dad, why don't you just pray about it, believe that you have it, and have faith until you see it manifest in your life. [00:07:40] Speaker B: Amen. [00:07:41] Speaker A: As we was reading this message together, as I was doing the podcast, I was talking to Alex, and ten years later, he's still saying the same message. He said, I just said that to one of my friends over the phone just now. So he still got the same message in his heart that he had when he was seven years old. Why don't you pray about it, believe it, and have faith until it manifests in your life. And having faith is how you speak about it. [00:08:04] Speaker B: Amen. [00:08:06] Speaker A: You have what you say or say what you have. [00:08:09] Speaker B: Amen. [00:08:12] Speaker A: So it's a wonderful thing when your kids remind you of what you should be believing. [00:08:17] Speaker B: Amen. [00:08:18] Speaker A: But words are like seeds. Look at your neighbor and say, words are like seeds. If you speak something out of your mouth, you're giving life to it. If you continue to say it and believe it in your heart, eventually it will produce and become a reality in your life. Positive or negative. You are where you are today because of what you say about yourself, your circumstances, and the people around you. [00:08:46] Speaker B: Amen. Amen. [00:08:50] Speaker A: You have say what you have in Christ Jesus. I have good friends in Christ Jesus. [00:08:58] Speaker B: Amen. [00:09:01] Speaker A: Second Corinthians 413. I want to go there to go a little further. Now, I don't know how hoppy we're going to get, but I want to. My responsibility is that as you will eat the fruit of your words, my responsibility is to make sure that you are planting the right seeds. So today, I'm not trying to be clappy, happy, entertaining Kyle. I'm wanting to change the circumstances in your life by educating you through the word of God. Is that okay? [00:09:26] Speaker B: Amen. [00:09:27] Speaker A: So, two Corinthians four and 13 says, yet we have the same spirit of faith as he had. Who wrote, I have believed. Say, I believe, and therefore I have spoken. Say, I spoke. We too believe, and therefore we speak. Somebody say, we speak. Now, look at this verse. Yes, we have the same spirit of faith that Jesus had, who wrote, I have believed, and therefore I have spoken. Whereto believe, and therefore we speak. That means when it was spoken in the past, it's still effective today to speak it in my life now. [00:10:06] Speaker B: Amen. [00:10:07] Speaker A: So what Moses spoke over his life, I can speak over my life. What Ezekiel spoke over his life, I can speak over my life. What Joshua and Joseph and Ruth and Naomi and Esther and all the great people in the Bible spoke over their life, I can now speak because I have the same spirit. [00:10:26] Speaker B: Amen. [00:10:27] Speaker A: Say with me, I'm not defeated. I'm not overcome. So when we contradict ourselves, you know, we say we believe it, but we act like we don't. You ever been around somebody? Been in church, and, man, you were happy to go to lunch with them because you thought, man, they were praising goddess, hopping around. They were praying. They were praying for people. They were doing all this stuff. And the moment you sit down with coffee with them, William, they start complaining about everything wrong in their life. And you're like, what happened between there and here? It's because what we speak has to line up with what we believe. Amen. If your words and people get mad at me all the time, Pastor Kyle, I said it, I prayed about it, I did it. And I look at them and go, did you believe it? [00:11:17] Speaker B: Amen. [00:11:19] Speaker A: Did you believe it? Because that's what changes your circumstance, not what you said. Because if changing my life just was merely saying what I want, like a wish and a genie in a bottle, then praise God, I'd have a lot of good things flow at them. I'd have a red corvette, a two story hat. I'm kidding. No, I'm not. I'd have these things. But the thing that I'm saying is, do you believe when you say these things? And are you willing to hold on? Because, see, when they spoke that their messiah was coming, Michelle, they had to wait 400 years to get it. People died believing. [00:11:56] Speaker B: Amen. [00:11:56] Speaker A: Are you willing to die believing? [00:11:59] Speaker B: Amen. [00:12:00] Speaker A: I'm getting real good now. Praise God. But we've somehow gotten into this hungry Jack's McDonald's microwave religion that we just pray a little prayer and say a little Bible verse and say a little couple of declarations, and we bing. All right, God, I got it. No, that ain't how it works, honey. You got to get in the kitchen and cook a little faith for a little while. You got to get in there and believe God. You have all the favor and all the blessings of Jesus Christ right now in your life, but God's got to get some things to line up on the outside of you because he's already placed it on the inside of you. And the only way he can do that is if you start speaking what's on the inside to the outside and changing what is you're saying, so that the outside can start to line up with the word of God in you. [00:12:46] Speaker B: Amen. [00:12:49] Speaker A: We have to have a heart that lines up with what we believe in scripture and speak what we believe by doing what we believe. [00:12:59] Speaker B: Amen. [00:13:01] Speaker A: So, whether you realize it or not, you are prophesying your future. Now, that word prophesy means to reveal. That is great. When we're saying things like, I'm blessed, I'm strong, I'm coming out of debt, I'm accomplishing my dreams. And that's not just positive thinking. That's prophesying and revealing what's in your heart. [00:13:23] Speaker B: Amen. [00:13:24] Speaker A: I have placed those words in my heart. Therefore, I'm revealing to the world the revelation that's in me, no matter what my circumstance looks like. [00:13:31] Speaker B: Amen. [00:13:32] Speaker A: We need to do more of that. Do you agree you're prophesying new levels, prophesying success? Because your words will move your. Your life will move in the direction of your belief and your words. Did you hear me? Your life will move in the direction of your words. Your life will move in the direction of your words. Do you realize that when you speak rejective words? Well, I don't really like going to church. I don't really like being around anybody. That you're actually causing the people around you to not like church and not want to be around anybody. [00:14:07] Speaker B: Amen. [00:14:07] Speaker A: You're planting those seeds. Well, I like being alone. I like hanging out by myself. You know, I'm a lone wolf. I like doing my own thing. Do you know that you're telling everybody around you that you don't want them around? You're planting those seeds so you can't have a poor mouth and expect a rich life. Oh, you better write that down. You can't have a poor mouth and expect a rich life. I'm blessed. But too many people do just the opposite by saying, I never get any breaks. I'll never get back in shape. Business is slow. Flu season is here. You know, I always get it. They don't realize they are prophesying defeat. They are calling in bad breaks, mediocrity, and lack when they say those things. Amen. That's a good moment right there. Amen. You are planting seeds when you talk. At some point, you are going to eat the fruit of your words. As I said before, my challenge today is to make sure that you are planting the right words. So can you go on a journey with me in this message, as we will discover that if you want. If you want prosperity in your life, you got to speak prosperity into your life. If you want health in your life, you got to speak health in your life. If you want these things, it doesn't matter what the doctor says. They say, who say? We say, them say, mama said, uncle said. It doesn't matter what they say. What do you say? A lot of people said, I expected you to say, what did God say? Well, God has already said it. He has already spoke it. He's asking you to speak it. [00:15:42] Speaker B: Amen. [00:15:44] Speaker A: Well, you know, that sounds a lot like works, man. I wrestled with this message, too, as a student of grace. But I've realized that grace will kind of make us lazy. It'll make us sit there and be like, well, God's handled it. It's all good. Why pray about it? Why intercede? Why even fast? All these things that we do are to get us out of the way, to allow God to do what he's already done. [00:16:14] Speaker B: Amen. [00:16:15] Speaker A: And therefore, what God has spoken, it is finished. We then speak. It is finished. When God said, you will go into a city. You are the lender, not the borrower. You are the head, not the tail. And now we speak. I am the lender, not the borrower. I'm the head, not the tail. When Jesus spoke that you are healed. When James spoke that, beloved, be healed in health and in body, even as your soul prospers. We speak. I'm in good health, even as my body and my soul prospers. I am good with God, and God is good with me. [00:16:50] Speaker B: Amen. [00:16:52] Speaker A: Amen. Come on, somebody. I'm not trying to sell you something, I promise. [00:16:58] Speaker B: Amen. [00:17:00] Speaker A: But if you want apples, you got to plant apple seeds, not oranges. In other words, if you talk negative, you can expect a positive life. Now, William, can I come down there and talk about this for a minute? All right, I'm gonna go this way. These pants are a little too tight to hop down. Alleluia. Now, let me ask you this. I'm gonna come back up to those notes in here in a second. The reality is, is that we complain a lot and talk about all that's going wrong. Church, boss, friends, family, home. And we expect that that's because we talked about it and complained to somebody now, and they now heard us, that that's gonna change it. No, folk just got madden with you being mad, and they got mad for you or against you. [00:17:53] Speaker B: Amen. [00:17:54] Speaker A: It didn't change your circumstance. [00:17:57] Speaker B: Amen. [00:17:59] Speaker A: But the moment you go to somebody and they know you're going through hell, I'm going to say it. Hell. H e eleven. Hell. Thank you. And you're going through. I'm going to say it one more time for the religious folk. Hell, you're going through it. Satan's all up in your business, dancing on your food. Amenity sitting beside you in bed. Are you trying to sleep now? When you going through hell? Let me tell you something. That's the moment that you don't complain. That's the moment that you speak what's been spoken by the word of God. That's not the moment when you throw up a hand and say, why is God doing this to me? Why does everybody hate me? No, that's the moment you speak what's been spoken through the spirit of God. Somebody say, I got to speak. No, you got to get a little spit going. Watch out, all y'all. A little bit of this ain't seaworld. It's not going to feel too good. I got to speak. Come on. I got to speak what God has spoken. [00:18:59] Speaker B: Amen. Is that good? [00:19:01] Speaker A: Tap your neighbor and say, start speaking the word of God over your life. Man, we want to get some stairs over here. That's a long trip. [00:19:12] Speaker B: Amen. [00:19:14] Speaker A: Hallelujah. If you want victory, you can't be talking defeat. If you talk lack, you can't expect abundance. Well, wait a minute. Jesus has already done it. Yeah, but if you're. You don't get what you deserve. You get what you believe. And if you're speaking contrary to what Jesus has already done, you're hindering the blessings of God that are in your life. [00:19:41] Speaker B: Amen. [00:19:43] Speaker A: Now, we need to talk more about this. Is that okay? [00:19:45] Speaker B: Amen. [00:19:46] Speaker A: Because we need to. We need to get back into church. [00:19:50] Speaker B: Amen. [00:19:52] Speaker A: You know, y'all seen my post the other day. I don't care if you've had premarital sex, you're a drug addict or whatever. You need to get to church. [00:19:57] Speaker B: Amen. [00:19:57] Speaker A: I don't care if you cussed out your neighbor and kicked your cat. You need to get to church. Amen. Church will change you. And if you're against church, buy. Because I need to be here. I need to be in the collective of community where people like my sister back in the back would say, bruh, you don't want need to be doing that anymore. You need to change your attitude. You okay? You look like you're gonna cut somebody. I need that in my life, and I find that in church. [00:20:22] Speaker B: Amen. [00:20:25] Speaker A: Thank you for the five people that believe in that. Amen. Instead of saying contrary to the word of God, get your heart and your mouth to go together. [00:20:39] Speaker B: Amen. [00:20:40] Speaker A: Instead of saying, I'll never get well. Kyle, the doctor says this is hereditary. Begins now. I need you to hear this. Begin to begin to say, God is restoring health back to me. This sickness did not come to stay. I'm getting better every day. Believe in your heart. Start sowing these type of words. I'm standing straighter than I ever have. I'm not. I refuse to say I'm getting old because getting old means I'm getting crippled. I'm not getting old. My age is just a number. Gray hairs are my wisdom. I don't care. I'm gonna dance until I die. Ever going to use a walker or a wheelchair. I'm going to get out of bed on my own free will. I won't need assistance. I won't need help. No nurse is going to have to wipe this bottom. Sorry I said that. Hey. Praise God. [00:21:23] Speaker B: Amen. [00:21:25] Speaker A: You have what you say. Say what you have. Amen. I got good health from the bottom of my feet to the top of my head. Even my health, even the follicles in my hair. Feel the Jesus juice in me, God. Hallelujah. I feel so good. You can't make me feel bad when I work out. I don't get sore. I feel better when I wake up in the morning. I like myself. I love what I see in the mirror. I like my smile even though I have a gap in my teeth. [00:21:50] Speaker B: Amen. [00:21:51] Speaker A: Begin to love you as God loves you. [00:21:56] Speaker B: Amen. [00:21:57] Speaker A: Because God wants all these good things for you. That's why he had his son die, so that you could have him. So speak what you have. [00:22:06] Speaker B: Amen. [00:22:07] Speaker A: Is this getting good yet? Y'all were worried there for a minute. [00:22:11] Speaker B: Amen. [00:22:13] Speaker A: Believe in your heart and start sowing these types of words in your life. And eventually you will eat the fruit and the result that will be health, wholeness and victory. How many want health, wholeness and victory? Stop talking about your problems, start talking about your promises. Stop talking about who ain't with you and start talking about who is Jesus on my side. God is for me and not against me. I have a host of angels in a camp that is surrounding about me to do the will of God and work of God that comes out of my mouth. I'm victorious. I'm the head, not the tail. I'm living, I'm alive, I'm blessed. I'm dressed for success. I know who I am in Christ. I'm not giving up. I'm going in. I'm not. I'm not defeated. I'm motivated. I'm not discouraged. I'm enlightened. I'm telling you something. I'm so full of this message right now, I could go for hours just telling you what to say and speak into your life. [00:23:07] Speaker B: Amen. [00:23:08] Speaker A: Because what's in your heart will come out of your mouth. [00:23:11] Speaker B: Amen. Amen. [00:23:15] Speaker A: Instead of saying, I will never get out of debt and I will never rise any higher, start saying, I have all that I need. I am favored. Everything I touches, everything I touches, everything I touch, prospers and succeeds. [00:23:29] Speaker B: Amen. [00:23:31] Speaker A: I have a promise from the Lord. He therefore spoke wherever I put my feet. It is mine. I speak. I put my feet right here. It is mine. He spoke in his word that whatever I put my hands to will be blessed. Guess what? I speak because my hands are on it, David. Therefore, it's blessed. Amen. Hallelujah. I've got a handshake with a voice of victory. And I know that God is doing something great in my life, and I am in it expectancy every time I speak for God to do what he said he's done through Jesus Christ. [00:24:03] Speaker B: Amen. [00:24:04] Speaker A: I ain't trying to sell you something, but I am telling you your life goes in the direction of your words. [00:24:12] Speaker B: Amen. [00:24:13] Speaker A: Start sowing seeds of increase and abundance by first believing it and not just saying it. That is the key. You can get all the devotional books and declaration books, write all a bunch of scriptures down and have sticky notes all over your house. But if you don't believe one of them, they're not going to produce fruit in your life. Don't blame the word of God. Don't blame God. And for sure, don't blame your pastors. [00:24:38] Speaker B: Amen. [00:24:40] Speaker A: Praise God. I believe I'm not going to be blamed for all the people's problems in 2020. [00:24:46] Speaker B: Amen. [00:24:47] Speaker A: Hallelujah. Glory be to goddess. But what I'm saying to you is this. You got to believe it. You can't say just because nobody showed up, it didn't work. It ain't who shows up. It's what do you believe I can do things by myself. Praise God. Because I got Jesus. But I sure do love the company. [00:25:08] Speaker B: Amen. [00:25:10] Speaker A: I'm not defeated. I knew a man once. Let me and I'll stop here. If you keep sowing these type of seeds of abundance and grace, you will eventually see those things on a daily experience and natural becomes super. I knew a man once that worried about getting Alzheimer's and several people in his family, they had it. He told me how he was preparing for this disease, such as who would take care of him and how his estate would be handled. He was always talking about what may happen. And I know it's good to have common sense and to prepare. But there's no point in going around preparing for what's going to happen and what may happen because you won't be disappointed when you get it. I'm not going to worry about heart disease just because my father had it. I'm not going to worry about brain tumors just because my family had it. I'm not going to worry about skin cancer just because my family had it. No. I believe that I've received a revelation in my soul spirit that my body needs to catch. [00:26:18] Speaker B: Amen. [00:26:19] Speaker A: Is that good? Is that good? Now he was in a lot of ways. I'll tell you like I told him. He was calling that disease forth and sending an invitation. So I'm going to tell you like I told him. Don't you talk about all timers one more time. [00:26:42] Speaker B: Amen. [00:26:44] Speaker A: You start every day. No weapon formed against me shall prosper. My mind is renewed. I'm in good health. My senses are sharp. My youth is renewed. [00:26:52] Speaker B: Amen. [00:26:53] Speaker A: You have got to prophesy reveal to your life what Christ has put on the inside of you. You've got to prophesy health. You have the authority to call good things of God into your life. Begin to withdraw from your inheritance of belief in your heart into this world by your words. Your words become your reality. And I would rather withdraw not from my circumstance, but I would rather withdraw from what's on the inside of me. [00:27:23] Speaker B: Amen. [00:27:26] Speaker A: James three says that the tongue is relentless and poisonous. And out of the same mouth comes blessings and cursings. These things James says, let them not be so. It is our moral obligation to speak in a manner that reflects our reverence to God. It is our moral obligation to speak out of our reverence to God. Can a fig tree. It says in the last verse. In verse eleven, my brothers produce olives or a grapevine produce figs. Nor can a salt water produce fresh water. We call in what we say. You can't have a poor mouth and expect a rich life. Every time you say you can't, you won't be able to. They don't understand me. I'm not accepted. I'm a square peg and a round hole. You are prophesying your reality. Stop speaking defeat over your life and start speaking victory. [00:28:40] Speaker B: Amen. [00:28:40] Speaker A: Start speak. Well, I just want a divorce, honey. Stop speaking that. You're mad. I get it. Stop speaking it. I don't know if I can be with you anymore. I understand your hurts. Stop speaking it. Well, I don't understand how we're going to get through this. Stop speaking it. You're giving it life. [00:28:57] Speaker B: Amen. [00:28:59] Speaker A: Hallelujah. Why don't we stop criticizing ourselves and others and start blessing our lives and their lives? Speak life. Speak blessings. Say what you have in Christ. Speak over every area of your life and mattering how you feel and what it looks like. No matter how you feel and what it looks like. Speak Christ over it. [00:29:17] Speaker B: Amen. [00:29:19] Speaker A: No matter how they left you, speak Christ over it. No matter how they've hurt you, speak Christ over it. I was one time, I had to hold onto the wall walking down the hallway, and I was thinking, man, I'm going to fall over. God said, don't you say that out loud. I said, all right, I have balance. I have perfect health. I'm good. And the moment I spoke it, praise God, I let go of the wall, and I began to walk. Because you have what you say. Say what you have in Christ. Amen. I have good health. Amen. Am I. Am I yelling too much? Y'all, I'll give you a little analogy, and then I'm gonna start wrapping up here. I remember this guy in high school, to tell you how simple it is. You're like, well, I don't know if I don't even joke anymore. Well, every time. He was a superstar in soccer, man, he was six packed. He had legs that, you know, should go on calendars and kind of admired him. He was a man's mandev at 17. Praise God. Good looking man. My first bromance, I think. I'm just kidding. And every time you saw him, you said, how you doing? And he goes, ah, you know, just getting older and fatter like my dad. It was funny to all of us because the way he looked. I saw him on Facebook about three weeks ago. I fell off my chair. Cause he was old, fatter, and bald like his dad. I said, wow. You see? You have what you say. You better start saying what you have. Do you know that every male in my family is bald? And that my uncle was telling me, you gonna be bald. You know, I started speaking over my head at 18. I have hair. I will never go bald. I do not have a withdrawing bridge. I got hair. My follicles are healthy. My scalp. I would massage my head at night, praying. You can ask my wife. [00:31:02] Speaker B: Amen. [00:31:03] Speaker A: I didn't let people say this stuff to me. No, no. I have what I say. I don't have what they say. [00:31:08] Speaker B: Amen. [00:31:09] Speaker A: Hallelujah. People like, man, you're looking good for 42. That's because me and Tina spent a lot of time going, we getting younger. Day by day, we're renewed in our spirit. Day by day. We're not going to look old. We may have a number, but we're going to be blessed. [00:31:22] Speaker B: Amen. [00:31:23] Speaker A: I tell people my age, they go, you know, you don't look 42 now. Some folk just mean and like to tell me that I look 50. Praise God. But I don't. Friends, we gotta change our attitude. I'm getting stronger. My mouth is. My youth is renewed. I'm healthy. Better looking. Oh, better looking. Some of y'all need to say that. No, I'm kidding. I'm going to live a long life. Amen. Wes, where's the at? No, I'm kidding, Alex. You need to say, I'm better looking every day, son, you're looking good. [00:31:56] Speaker B: Amen. [00:31:57] Speaker A: Friends, speak life, believe and say what you have in Christ. Prophesy good things over your life. Start blessing your life, because your words become your reality. Proverbs six says, we are snared by the words of our mouth. Proverbs six seven. You can put that up there as I talk. Proverbs six seven. Snared means to be trapped. We have to realize our words can trip us. What you say can keep you from your potential. You are not snared by what you think I mean, my goodness, if I was snared roll by what I think, I'd be in trouble. I'm snared by what I say. [00:32:34] Speaker B: Amen. [00:32:35] Speaker A: I don't speak over business deals until I pray through it properly. Because once I say it, I'm in a contract, whether I've signed anything or nothing. [00:32:44] Speaker B: Amen. [00:32:45] Speaker A: If I say I'm gonna show up, I don't tell people I'm gonna show up anymore. Because, praise God, I'll say I'll try and make it. Let's see what happens on the day. Because I don't want to keep breaking contracts over my words. Because my word is my currency. I am a rich man because my word is my currency. [00:33:01] Speaker B: Amen. Amen. [00:33:03] Speaker A: Some of y'all getting that? Is this good? [00:33:06] Speaker B: Amen. [00:33:09] Speaker A: The difference is when you believe in your heart and speak them out loud, saying things as simple as man, I seem to be focused on getting in shape. I don't know what's going on. Simple as saying, I'll never get in shape. You are adding defeat to your diet and your exercise. Say things like, I currently struggle with, listen, I'm 106 kilos and I can't do over three pull ups. I like to do 20. I don't sit there and say, I can't do 20. I say, I currently struggle with doing three pull ups. One day I will get to 20. Praise God. [00:33:43] Speaker B: Amen. [00:33:44] Speaker A: It's just a change of attitude and mindset I currently struggle with, but I don't give it victory. [00:33:49] Speaker B: Amen. [00:33:52] Speaker A: Speak breakthrough. Speak victory in the Old Testament. I'll close with this thought. Ezekiel had a vision of a valley of dry bones. And everywhere he looked, it was like a huge graveyard. And bones represent those dead things in your life, those hard things to get past. And God said to Ezekiel, now speak to these dry bones that they will obey the word of the Lord. Did you hear me? Now speak to these dry bones so that they will obey the word of the Lord. You're not speaking to grow your faith. You have a measure of faith on the inside of you because of Jesus Christ. You're not speaking to get your circumstances. No, your circumstances have already changed on the inside of you. You're just speaking what is already spoken by the word of God. And you're telling that thing on the outside to line up with what God said. [00:34:44] Speaker B: Amen. Amen. [00:34:47] Speaker A: He spoke, and the bones began to get muscle and tendons. And then the Lord said, prophesy. Reveal life. Reveal life back into them. Scripture says that he prophesied breath, and it came into their bodies and they stood up like a vast army. You speak to your defeat, and you speak victory, because your biggest defeat may be your biggest testimony and triumph. It may be the very thing that God uses to change your life. The very thing you're looking at that you thought the devil was going to stop you with is the very thing you may speak to and may change and turn around and be used to glorify God through you. The very thing that was meant to kill you would give life to others. The very thing that was meant to defeat you would give victory to everybody around you. Stop looking at your circumstance and start saying what God said. Amen. That's a good shouting point right there. [00:35:43] Speaker B: Amen. [00:35:44] Speaker A: Call restoration into your life. Don't just pray about it. Believe it and speak to it. And if it looks like dead bones, believe it and speak to it. Just like Ezekiel. Speak to it. You have the believer's authority. Speak to it. Psalms two says, I declare and I decree. Therefore it is written. Therefore I say, you got to declare and decree. Today. I declare and decree over everybody's life. Underneath the sound of my voice. You are healthy, wealthy, victorious. You are the head, not the tail. You are the lender, not the borrower. You are successful, you're good looking. You're getting everything you want. Your life is changing. Your relationships are better. You're moving into that promotion. You have the job you want. And I believe that everyone today that suffers from migraines, headaches, and any type of sickness and blood or anything that goes on in your brain, you are victorious, healed, and blessed. Right now, if you believe it as it is declared, will you speak? I am the healed of the Lord. I am the blessed of the Lord because of Jesus Christ. [00:36:43] Speaker B: Amen. [00:36:45] Speaker A: Instead of being trapped by your words, you will be propelled by your words. I'll bring it home with this last thought. James says a tiny propeller controls a large ship. So does the tongue. Set direction for your life. Are you going in the right direction? Are you seeing increase? Are you seeing new growth and favor in your life? If not, check what you are believing and the words that you are sowing into your life. When you get your words going in the right direction, you will get your life going in the right direction. For as a man thinks, so is he. I am one with Christ. I have what Christ has. I am blessed. I am victorious. I am lining up with the word of God in every area of my life, not out of my own works. So will you make this decision with me? [00:37:45] Speaker B: Will you? [00:37:46] Speaker A: Anybody that will make this decision, I want you to. Please stand. Decide. No more negativity, mediocrity, defeat, doubt or lack. Choose to bless your future. Acknowledge all that you have received in Christ. If you will start prophesying, reveal victory in your life. I declare you will rise higher. I said it, therefore, I believe it. Do you believe with me? I declare you will rise higher, overcome every obstacle, and become everything God has created you to be. I believe right now in the name of Jesus, as we add our faith together, that two or three gather together in his name, that you are already in the midst. I believe that one can send a thousand a flight and two can send 10,000 to flight. I believe that by the power of agreement, it is so. And God himself says, so be it, in what they've agreed on. And I believe that your finances are well. I believe that your health is well. I believe that that wayward Son is coming back into the fold, that the Holy Spirit is beginning to talk to him and bring him in. That wayward child is coming in. In Jesus name. I believe that your child will be. Your children will be mighty in the city. I believe that your family will be recognized, not dismissed. I believe in the name of Jesus that you are victorious. I believe and I speak, therefore, it is so as they agree with me. I believe that you have all that Jesus promises, all of his promises. I believe you have what the Bible says you have. I believe right now. I declare and decree that all the hell is beginning to shake because of what you've received in Jesus name. This revelation being released, no longer trapped and condemned by your words. But you're releasing the top off the ark of your covenant and saying that all that is in me, in Jesus Christ, I now release to the world. I will no longer hinder it by my words or even believe my circumstances. I release Christ in every area of my life. The favor to the fullness, the joy forevermore, the beloved, the happiness, the wholeness, the peace and the goodness, the brotherly kindness. I have all the fruit of the spirit operating on the inside of me. I ain't had stopping yet. I believe that all of it's coming to forth and fruition. I believe that everything I touch is blessed. Do you believe it? Begin to clap your hands. I believe I got a promotion. I believe I got a new job. I believe cars are coming into my home. I believe new homes that I did not build or mine. I believe I have wells that did not die, did not dig. I believe that as I receive, I give. I believe that God's giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater. Therefore, God make me abundance and blessings so that I can give unto this gospel to see it spread throughout the Asia Pacific. I believe, therefore I receive in Jesus name. And I will have faith to wait for it to manifest in my life. And for those that believe and received it. Give the Lord a hand. Clap of praise. Amen.
