SAY!!

Say, sounds like an incomplete topic right?  Well last weekend I attended Day Star Tabernacle International, in Douglasville GA, with my church family (Sonship Harvest Ministries) and the preacher said that God told him that the topic of his sermon would be “Say”.  Of course, the congregation didn’t understand at first, but he explained that when we think about problems or issues nothing happens until we “say” something.  

The scripture came from Matthew 17:20

He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly, I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

The power of life and death is in the tongue, which is what comes out of our mouths when we say something. Be careful with that tongue!

Now some of you have probably heard this same sermon many times, but he explained it in a way that increased my faith by a ton.  I understood faith, and speaking thing as though they are, but he really gave it to us to SAY and have FAITH.  We are the bride of Christ, therefore He loves us and is willing to give us all the riches we could ask for, but we have to say something to Him. We have to have that intimate relationship with God. In relationships and marriages, if you do not talk to one another how do you all stay connected?

The pastor then explained not only do you have to say something but whatever you say, you must believe it will come to pass.  Many of us say we want something but a times doubt what we say which causes what we spoke to cancel out.  The pastor gave a testimony about how he needed a van for a family member to drive while they were in town.  He said during church one day, “I need a van for my family”.  As soon as he returned home, there was van and the keys in his driveway.  Now look at God work J

After the pastor wrapped up his sermon, Apostle Horton (Day Star Tabernacle Int’) encouraged everyone to say something, they wanted God to do for them and also believe and have faith that it’s coming!

I’ll keep everyone updated on my “SAY-FAITH” and show how God is moving.
