Because of what they say a person can fill their stomach. What their words produce can satisfy them. Your tongue has the power of life and death. Those who love to talk will eat the fruit of their words. Proverbs 18:20-21 NIRV
What a powerful force our words are. Words are seeds. We can plant seeds of hope, healing, and wholeness. We can plant these seeds in the soil of our own heart or in the lives of our loved ones and those around us.
What words are you sowing? Are you planting seeds of love, peace, and positive affirmation? Or are you planting seeds of misery, hopelessness, strife, and unbelief? This is why it is vital to continue examining the power of words.
Declaring the Word works. Speaking in agreement with God will change your life forever. The more you grow in Faith, in Grace, and in the knowledge of Jesus, your words will agree with God and not with your present circumstances or situation.
Why does confessing or saying the same thing as God work? We have seen that first it causes Faith to come. Secondly, it renews the mind to think God's thoughts. Thirdly, it reprograms the heart, helping to focus on the unseen rather than the seen. It also keeps the promise of God before us, keeping Faith in focus and not the problem.
The fifth reason why confessing God's Word works is that it puts the Law of Faith into motion. When you declare God's Word, Faith is being released. There is a miracle in your mouth; all you have to do is speak it out!
So [it shall be] that he who invokes a blessing on himself in the land shall do so by saying, May the God of truth and fidelity [the Amen] bless me; and he who takes an oath in the land shall swear by the God of truth and faithfulness to His promises [the Amen], because the former troubles are forgotten and because they are hidden from My eyes. Isaiah 65:16 AMPC
Look at this powerful prophecy from Isaiah. This is foreshadowing the Redemptive work of Jesus. You invoke the blessing by releasing your words. Grace has already provided it; it belongs to us through Christ.
Grace provided it, but Faith takes it. Grace made it all available, but you partake of it by receiving what was purchased and procured by Jesus' Finished Work. How do you receive it? By declaring His Word, agreeing with what He made available. It is not just acknowledging it but agreeing with God that it is yours and you have it now.
Casually acknowledging the Righteousness of all believers in Christ is not laying hold of it and claiming it for yourself. You receive of the gift of Righteousness by declaring "I am the Righteousness of God in Christ."
Faith's confession agrees with the reality that Grace made in Jesus' Finished Work of Redemption. Faith's confession creates that reality in your own personal life. Declaring the Word of God sets the Law of Faith in motion for what concerns you.
What is the Law of Faith?
Where then is boasting? It has been excluded. By what kind of law? By a law of works? No, but by the law of faith. Romans 3:27 Mounce.
For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and doesn’t doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening, he shall have whatever he says Mark 11:23 WEB
The Law of Faith is no different than the law of gravity. The Law of Faith says that what you believe with the heart and declare with your mouth will come to pass. Faith is not just about speaking the Word, but it is a part of it. Faith is released when we speak in agreement with His Word and what Redemption provided.
Look again at the Gospel of Mark, where the woman with the issue of blood declared her healing, putting the Law of Faith in motion. She declared continually that when she touched His garment, she would be healed.
She kept speaking it, and put the Law of Faith in motion. She reached out and touched Jesus' garment and received her healing. When Jesus sensed the healing anointing released, He sought her out and declared that her Faith made her whole.
Your Faith can make you whole, too. The Law of Faith is about believing and speaking. Notice in Mark 11 that Jesus mentioned believing once and saying three times. He was showing that Faith is released by speaking. He showed us the power and importance of words.
So what are you saying? Are you agreeing with the Finished Work or religious traditions? Redemption or present circumstances? The Law of Faith is not about works or earning or striving. It is not based on works. It is not about performance. It is about Grace through Faith.
When you declare God’s Word, you’re not striving, begging, or trying to earn. You’re simply agreeing with what Grace has already finished. The Law of Faith is voice-activated—believe in your heart, speak with your mouth, and watch His promises manifest in your life. Healing, provision, peace, and victory are not distant dreams; they are present realities waiting to be received. So lift your voice, declare His Word, and set the Law of Faith in motion—because what Jesus has done is already yours today.
