Believe What You Say Will Come To Pass

MARK 11:23 ESV
23 Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be
taken up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his
heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it
will be done for him.

Most people have no problem believing what God says will come
to pass. But not many believe that their own words will come to
pass.

You may think it unbelievable to even consider that what you
say would come to pass. But Jesus told us that's part of how
faith works.

"How can it be possible?" you may ask.

For most of us, it will mean we will have to stop much of what
we have been saying. Idle words will have to stop.

But it is possible! If you restrict your words so that nothing
you say is contrary to God's Word, then you can believe that
what you say will come to pass. Because you will only be
speaking in complete agreement with what God has already said.

This won't happen overnight, and it is not easy to completely
control your tongue, but it is possible with God.

JAMES 1:26 NLT
26 If you claim to be religious but don't control your tongue,
you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.

JAMES 3:8 NLT
8 but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full
of deadly poison.

We need help to control our tongue. So we must not depend on
our own self-will or efforts to change, but look to God for His
help.

SAY THIS: Lord, please help me to always speak in agreement
with Your Word, so I can believe what I say will come to pass.
