There is a little known fact that words have tremendous power over our lives. When you are really aware of it, you can change your life's pattern drastically. However, most people don’t give it much attention and make things much harder on themselves. Yes, the words you speak out of your mouth have an amazing power because your ears hear what you say. Your mind believes every word you say to be true, and it believes whatever you say. Successful people are well aware of this. They know that you can actually create the results you want by speaking them over and over before they happen. Your mind hears these instructions and will actually make them come true. 

If you want to be Rich, speak about yourself as already being Rich. Speak about how you’re just getting started. Speak about all of the wonderful things that will be happening in your life. Make a conscious effort to speak positively about situations even if you don’t believe them to be true. Your mind will begin to believe them. You’ll actually feel better about the situation itself.

Someone once suggested to think of the worst thing going on in your life right now then begin to speak about it positively, confessing God’s word over it. I strongly agree and endorse that statement! If you’re sick, talk about how much better you feel all of a sudden. If you have money problems, talk about how you’re getting your finances in order and the problems will pass. If you have marriage problems, talk about how you’ll be a better spouse and how much your marriage is about to improve. Then watch, as the problems will begin to fix themselves.

Words work the other way too. Watch someone talking poorly about his or her spouse and I’ll show you a divorce about to happen. I read about someone who, since she was 20 years old, said she would die of cancer one day. I understand she died of cancer at age 37.

On a deeper level, "Confession" merely means to proclaim God's word, as though it was written thousands of years ago specifically for you, because it was!  These are God's precious promises for our lives.  If you have unsaved loved ones, for example, you can believe when you pray God's word into their situation (or any situation of yours) that His Word will not return to Him void, but it will do exactly what it was meant to do" (Isaiah 55:11). By speaking God's promises into your situation, you are praying the answer, rather than focusing on the problem.  In other words, by speaking His words, rather than making up your own, you have the assurance of what His will is regarding the subject.

Instead of asking Him, thank Him, and give Glory to God for the answer! Remind Him that His word has already provided the solution, and watch the power of God's words make it happen for you, and in other peoples' lives. Positive words can do much, but God’s word is invincible and it cannot fail.

Its great priviledge to start off this discussion with an excerpt from the great Legend's (Dr Martin Luther King Jr) last speech, "I've been to the mountain top" - April 3, 1968.

"...And you know, if I were standing at the beginning of time, with the possibility of taking a kind of general and panoramic view of the whole human history up to now, and the Almighty said to me, "Martin Luther King, which age would you like to live in?" - I would take my mental flight by Egypt and I would watch God's children in their magnificent trek from the dark dungeons of Egypt through, or rather across the Red Sea, through the wilderness on toward the promised land. And in spite of its magnificence, I wouldn't stop there.

I would move on by Greece, and take my mind to Mount Olympus. And I would see Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Euripides and Aristophanes assembled around the Parthenon. And I would watch them around the Parthenon as they discussed the great and eternal issues of reality. But I wouldn't stop there.

I would go on, even to the great heyday of the Roman Empire. And I would see developments
around there, through various emperors and leaders. But I wouldn't stop there. I would even
come up to the day of the Renaissance, and get a quick picture of all that the Renaissance did for the cultural and aesthetic life of man. But I wouldn't stop there.

I would even go by the way that the man for whom I'm named had his habitat. And I would watch Martin Luther as he tacked his ninety-five theses on the door at the church of Wittenberg. But I wouldn't stop there.

I would come on up even to 1863, and watch a vacillating president by the name of Abraham Lincoln finally come to the conclusion that he had to sign the Emancipation Proclamation. But I wouldn't stop there.

I would even come up to the early thirties, and see a man grappling with the problems of the
bankruptcy of his nation. And come with an eloquent cry that we have nothing to fear but fear
itself. But I wouldn't stop there.

Strangely enough, I would turn to the Almighty, and say, "If you allow me to live just a few years in the second half of the 20th century, I will be happy." Now that's a strange statement to make, because the world is all messed up..."

It takes darkness, gloom and slavery to determine and appreciate the essence of light, joy, and freedom. Today's happenings around the world gives us more opportunity to live our lives unrestrained by circumstances. Its the best period to live the life we were born to live. considering the excerpt above, know that nothing should be strong or amazing enough to stop you in your tracks. It gives us the courage to yearn for more, because there is MORE to life than we can see now!

Never cower under anything that tends to limit you because it sees the power and influence that you wield. It may tend to throw mist at the windscreen of your goals and aspirations. The truth remains that you can keep wiping it off and keep moving forward, motivated by what you possess in your heart.

Have you ever thought about it that there is a reason you were not born thousands and hundreds of years ago? Have you ever given it a thought that you may not have had the influence you have right now? Now that you are here, you have the freedom to give to the world what you have in your possession, to the betterment of mankind.

Be dutiful in all that you do, and articulately live with the determination to succeed in all your endeavours. Arise, shine for your time to act is NOW! So be concerned when things are not going right...count it as a privilege and a duty you owe to the redemption of its victims. Take charge, look out for solution from within you. Don't become compassionate by proxy! Put yourself on the line, because you can cause a change by the power of your direct action.
