Out Of The Mouth Comes The Overflow Of The Heart

The Power of Confession
We can learn how to re-write our future with the words we speak. We might not realize it, but God expects from us when we come into the Kingdom that we want to grow and develop. It’s the same as any other profession that you have to learn. First you have to learn the words they speak in that particular arena, isn’t it? Every profession has some words in it that you and I don’t have to use if we are not working in that area.
So, first you have to change your way of thinking, then your way of talking, then your way of looking and then you change your purpose in life. You go from the basics to the advanced and then further and you keep going and going. That is the process that the Word of God takes.
Right now in these times that we live in God is demanding more from us, so that He can put more in us and that more can come out of us and bring more to us.Wow! That is something to think about, isn’t it?
Mat 12:35 says: A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. Do we want good things to come forth? Of course we do. You see, your future is in your heart and you bring it forth, whether you know it or not. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. We can’t change that from happening. It is a principle of the Kingdom and a way we are designed to operate.
Out of the mouth comes the overflow of the heart. So, we can bring forth good things or we can bring forth evil things, like it says in the last part of the verse. You could say instead of treasure, a deposit of the heart, because somehow it has to be deposited in the heart. Whatever is deposited in there will eventually come out.
Babies in Christ desire the sincere milk of the word that you may grow thereby. You cannot grow on the milk unless you drink it. You have to put it in there. So, the plan of the Kingdom of God needs to come into the heart, so it can come out of you and that it would manifest into your life. There is nothing that can stop you!
That’s why Jesus said “don’t seek after what you are going to eat and what you are going to put on”, that is what the world seeks after. He told us to seek first the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added to us. That is the way things will come into our life. Nobody can stop you but you, because your future is in your heart and not in somebody else’s hand. They don’t have your future.
The government doesn’t have my future, my best friends don’t have my future and my parents don’t have my future. My future is in my heart. It has been given to me through the Word of God. The devil cannot stop it. If you have your dependency on the government, the government can stop it.
Pro 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. The word issues means in the Hebrew: boundaries, borders or forces come out of the heart. You keep your heart means that you guard your heart. One translation says that we have to keep our hearts with all vigilance and with all our might. It is that important!
Whatever comes in your heart and especially if it comes in there in abundance; it will control your life. But the good news is that he has put believers in this earth so that nobody can keep us from our destinies but us. God made it that way and that is the good news.
The revelation has to take root in your life that the color of your skin cannot hold you back and the color of somebody else’s skin cannot stop you. Wherever you come from cannot stop you, wherever you were born cannot stop it. You future is in your heart and not somebody else’s hands, so if God is for you and nobody can stand against you.
You have to make a choice to go for it and act on this principle, will you? That way there is nothing inside of you, no bitterness can come into your heart because you are making a great choice to protect and guard your heart will all diligence, right?
