OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTION WATCH ATTITUDE TO
PROPHECIES BY PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE


Memory Verse: For by thy
words thou shalt be
justified, and by thy
words thou shalt be
condemned. Matthew 12:37


Read: Proverbs 18:6-8

Pro 18:6 A fool's lips enter into
contention, and his mouth calleth
for strokes.



Pro 18:7 A fool's mouth is his
destruction, and his lips are the
snare
of his soul.



Pro 18:8 The words of a
tale bearer are as wounds, and
they go down
into the innermost parts of the
belly.



Message :

Your confessions have a way of
affecting your today, and
particularly
your tomorrow. If there is one
thing you should do more often,
it is to speak positively into your
future, prophesy into your
today and
tomorrow and God will back it up.



Don't let the negative
pronouncements of others stop you; rather, change the
situation in
your favour by your own
confessions because
Matthew 12:37 says, “For by thy words thou shalt be
justified, and by thy words thou
shalt
be condemned.”



It is interesting but surprising to
know that what have pegged
the
progress of some people is not
the curses placed on them but
the words they have spoken against
themselves.



Stop speaking
against yourself!
Eradicate words and phrases like
these from your dictionary: 'I
cannot do it' (except for something
negative). 'This task is not for
people
like me;' 'Those who are saying I
can make it in life are only
deceiving me because nobody ever made it in my family'; 'It is
an
impossible task', etc.



Rather fill
your diction with 'I can', 'It is
possible', 'I will succeed', 'Even if
there is no way for others there will always be a way for me'.



My father-in-the Lord once told
me this story. Two men went
before the
oracle and the priest told one of
them, “You will be king”, and
the other, “You are a servant”.
Then they left. The one told he
would be
king began to rejoice and
celebrate his forth coming
fortune, but the other man challenged the verdict
of the oracle. “Why must I be a
servant?” After thinking over it,
he resolved there and then not
to be
one.


He got two cutlasses and sharpened them very well, took
some food
items and travelled to a far
location to work. Each stroke
from his
cutlass was backed by the confession: “I refuse to be a
servant”. From
his labour, his farm became so
big.



One day, a hunter in the
midst of
famine stumbled on his farm and returned to tell the villagers he
had
found food. So the villagers came
to beg the man to give them
food in
exchange for becoming their king.



So this farmer became king
while the
one prophesied to be king
became his servant.


Key Point A prophecy about you may be
good but what you do with it is
more important.
