“A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompense of a man’s hands shall be rendered unto him.
Proverbs 12:14
At creation, God decreed that the
earth should bring forth grass, the herb-yielding seed, and the tree-yielding fruit after its kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. Words of our mouth are seeds and they produce fruits of their kind. We are satisfied with good by the fruits of our mouth. With your mouth, you can procure death or life! The Bible says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.”
Proverbs 18:21
The truth is that what you say with your mouth matters a great deal. Do you know that you can be satisfied with health, healing, prosperity, and promotion by what you say? That you can also get a ruptured destiny via your words? Wisdom demands that your mouth must be properly guided and equipped to speak positively, not negatively; constructively, not destructively.
How to be satisfied with the good:
- Sow the right words to others.
“Be not deceived; God has not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”
Galatians 6:7
Whatever word seed you sow into others, you will surely reap a harvest of fruits. Encouraging or edifying words from your mouth to others will procure a harvest of the same to you. Do you want a happy day? Sow happiness into someone’s day! Do you want people to speak positive words to you? Do the same to people around you. Life is about seed and harvest! The Bible says “As the earth remains seedtime and harvest shall not cease!” - Speak faith-filled words
“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;”
Romans 10:8
God wants you to talk or speak words of faith. He wants you to speak words that will trigger faith, not fear! You need to speak words of hope and courage to yourself always. Are you fearful or afraid of something? Say to yourself confidently, “I will not fear or be scared! For my God will step in to help me.” - Speak to the mountains in your life
“Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.”
Matthew 21:21
Everyone has one mountain or the other in their lives. Yours may be different from your brother’s. With faith in your heart, arise and say to the “mountain, be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea!” You can determine what happens in your life! Your deliverance or bondage is in your mouth! Your victory or defeat is in your mouth! Be careful, these days of economic or political brouhaha, you must learn to speak well to yourself, and even to your country. David was greatly distressed because his people wanted to stone him for no just cause. The people were transferring their aggression or frustration to him. But what did David do? The Bible says that he encouraged himself in the Lord. How did he do that? By speaking to his soul: “Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.”
Psalms 42:5
Like David, anytime you are frustrated or distressed, try to say something good to your soul that will boost your energy and enthusiasm.
I decree and declare that you shall be satisfied with good always in Jesus’ mighty name.
Yours sincerely,
