There are times we have gotten off faith and cast out God's Words, and started believing what the devil says. You release the ability of satan when you start saying what he says. Fear activates the enemy and Faith brings God on the scene.
Before you start to say or speak what comes into your mind, ask yourself is this going to be faith filled encouraging or doubt filled discouraging?
If it doesn't agree with God's word you should rethink the source of that thought.
The only time satan can excerise his ability to decieve you and I is if he can get us to believe his lies, and if he can get you and I to believe his lies, and if we go around speaking what he says, fear, negativity, faithlessness brothers and sisters we have put ourselves in a bad place.
When you start saying Lord it's not getting any better, everything is falling apart, my marriage is failing, my kids out of control, my world is falling apart, you have stopped God's ability to act on your behalf, and established satans words in your life which are fear filled not faith filled.
Psalms 119:89 says "Forever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven". God's word has already been settled in heaven nothing can change it.
Matthew 16:19 says "And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatsoever thous shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven". He didn't say key to the kingdom. He said keys of the kingdom.
We sometimes buddy up to the enemy, binding our spiritual growth. For example God gives you a dream to do something for Him and you say "well I could do it but all these things are blocking my path it will probably never happen, seems like the enemy always throws something in my path to stop me". We speak this out of our mouth. Well, you have released the ability of satan to come in and put it over on you, you have said it with your mouth.
Now if God came in and stopped that, He would be violating His Word because He said:
Romans 4:17 " (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom believed, even God who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which are not as though they were".
Mark 11:23,24 "For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed and cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those which he sayeth shall to pass he shall have whatsoever he sayeth.
When Jesus was led into the wilderness by the Spirit and tempted by satan He responded with God's word, we must learn to respond to any adverse situation the same as Jesus, by speaking God's Word, which is faith filled not fear filled.
Romans 10:17 "So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God".
Read the word out loud let it enter your ears, go into your spirit and meditate on it and it will be seated in your heart.
John 14: 26 "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to remembrance , whatsoever I have said unto to you".
Plant God's word in your heart, when trouble comes your way speak what God says speak words of faith
If you have never trusted and received Jesus Christ as your Savior the gift freely given by God the Father do so today.
Romans 10:8-13
8But what does it say? The Word (God's message in Christ) is near you, on your lips and in your heart; that is, the Word (the message, the basis and object) of faith which we preach,
9Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10For with the heart a person believes (adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Christ) and so is justified (declared righteous, acceptable to God), and with the mouth he confesses (declares openly and speaks out freely his faith) and confirms [his] salvation.
11The Scripture says, No man who believes in Him [who adheres to, relies on, and trusts in Him] will [ever] be put to shame or be disappointed.
12[No one] for there is no distinction between Jew and Greek. The same Lord is Lord over all [of us] and He generously bestows His riches upon all who call upon Him [in faith].
13For everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.
