Speak into the Atmosphere

Sunday 6 November
READ: Mark 4:35-39
MORE LESSON: Eze. 29:1-3

In today's reading, it had already been concluded by Jesus that He and His disciples were going over to the other side but the enemy said it would not be. So also it is for every one born with a great destiny; your other side is that greatness, that promotion, that impactful ministerial calling, that relevant business that the enemy will always say no to. The devil sent a storm to hinder them from crossing over to the other side; the boat got filled with water though Jesus was there with the disciples. Jesus was with them but nothing was done until the disciples spoke. The major lesson of life here is that keeping quiet when you should speak endangers your life. It leads to defeat and makes you a casualty in the battles of life.
The disciples probably assumed that because Jesus was there with them, storms would not come. This can be a costly assumption. Having Kingdom power and authority does not mean challenges will not come; rather, they will come to try that power. You have to unlock the power by speaking. Do not assume but act, speak, For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith: Mark 11:23. Jesus Himself spoke this profound truth in this verse of the Scripture and it cannot be broken; so you have to speak into the atmosphere even in the face of contradictions. Desires without prayers and speaking them out are wishful thinking. Speak in the days of trouble and God will hear you and give you answer. The only major condition is that you must speak without doubt or unbelief in your heart. Believe that what God says He will, He will do and He can do what He says. Doubt your doubts and believe God to the end.
What do you speak?
I) Speak what God says: situations must respond to what God says. Find out what God says about your situation and speak that out.
ii) Make a decree (Job 22:28). A decree is an authoritative word backed by law. Tell satan his boundary in your life; let him know what he must not do.
iii) Speak a command (Isa.45:11). A command is backed up by the authority of a superior; God is the most superior.
Whatever you refuse to say ‘No’ to will become normal in your life. Disapproval is expressed by speaking. Rise up now and refute all satanic troubles your boat is filled with and there will be a great calm. Speak now!

Prayer/Action
* Every contrary word that has risen up against me, I command you to cease and I declare peace, in Jesus’ name.
* I prophesy to the womb of this new day, bring forth for me victory, success, progress, joy, increase and help, in Jesus’ name.
