INTEGRITY AND POWER
Job 22:28
28 You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways.
NKJV
Integrity is an expedient for men who will have power with God. If you are filled with the Holy Spirit you have been endued with the great power of God (see Acts 1:8). One of the reasons why so many Christians do not walk in the physical manifestation of this power is because they do not give this power an outlet. Power that does not have an outlet is not seen at all.
One on the most convenient and greatest outlets of power a man has is his tongue. ‘You shall say to this mountain, be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea… (Mark 11:23)’, ’’ you shall decree a thing and it will be established… (Job 22:28)’, ‘with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Rom 10:10)’, ‘Death and life are in the power of the tongue (Prov 18:21)’. As a servant of God you are expected of God to use your mouth to decree things over your life and bring them into reality, Jesus did it and He told us to do same.
The major hindrance to the power of tongue working for Christians is that they pollute that outlet of power by leading lives void of integrity. A man of integrity is the only one that can speak and angels will respond. It is Angels that minister for us and cause our words to be established (see Heb 1:14). When a man’s words have no weight with fellow men how can it have weight with angels?
When a man says he is coming by 4pm and does not plan to leave the house till 5pm, people who know him will not take his words seriously, how can angels run with his decrees?
Go into today determined to take your words more seriously than you have in the past. Begin to utilize this outlet of power you have (words) and decree the counsels of God alone concerning all aspects of your life.
Prayer: thank God for bringing you to this day. Begin to decree peace in every department of your life. Begin to decree peace over your country, in Jesus name. Amen
