Notes
===============
Things we overlook in life will oftentimes hurt us.
Notes
===============
The Bible clearly places a great importance on speaking God's Word.
Scripture
===============
Proverbs 18:20-21 (NKJV)
---------------
A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; From the produce of his lips he shall be filled.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.
Scripture
===============
Matthew 8:5-13 (NKJV)
---------------
Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him,
saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.”
And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
The centurion answered and said, “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.
For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!
And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour. Peter’s Mother-in-Law Healed
Notes
===============
Some people believe that it is enough for you to have the Word of God in your heart.
Notes
===============
Our relationship with Jesus is begun with not only what we believe in our hearts but also what we say with our mouths.
Scripture
===============
Romans 10:9-10 (NKJV)
---------------
that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Notes
===============
We are not minimizing the importance of having God’s Word in your heart at all but having the Word in your heart only is not enough.
Scripture
===============
Joshua 1:8 (NKJV)
---------------
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.
Notes
===============
If you want to get the Word in your heart you have to first put it in your mouth.
Notes
===============
We need to understand there is a difference between speaking God’s Word out of faith like God does and speaking God’s Word unto faith where we are speaking and getting the Word into our hearts.
Scripture
===============
Romans 10:17 (NKJV)
---------------
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Notes
===============
God created us to be able to hear our own words and build a capacity to believe them in our hearts.
Scripture
===============
Luke 6:45 (NIV)
---------------
A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. The Wise and Foolish Builders
Notes
===============
If you do not understand the importance of speaking God’s Word, you will never be able to overcome the incredible power of doubt.
Notes
===============
Anytime you begin to trust God, the enemy will come at your mind to manipulate your imagination to see your life going different from what God has said.
Notes
===============
The best way to get a handle on your thoughts and imagination is through the power of speaking God’s word.
Scripture
===============
Mark 11:12-14 (NKJV)
---------------
Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry.
And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
In response Jesus said to it, “Let no one eat fruit from you ever again.” And His disciples heard it. Jesus Cleanses the Temple
Scripture
===============
Mark 11:20-23 (NKJV)
---------------
Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
And Peter, remembering, said to Him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.”
So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.
For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.
Notes
===============
It is not enough to just believe in your heart, you must speak God’s Word out of your mouth.
Notes
===============
You can have doubt in your head and faith in your heart.
Notes
===============
The way to determine if you have doubts in your heart and not just in your head, is to listen to what is coming out of your mouth.
Scripture
===============
Psalms 118:17 (NKJV)
---------------
I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the Lord.
Scripture
===============
Psalms 91:15-16 (NKJV)
---------------
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him.
With long life I will satisfy him, And show him My salvation.”
Notes
===============
If you can keep doubt out of your mouth, you will keep it out of your heart.
