SCRIPTURE: Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Proverbs 18:21.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Your destiny is at the mercy of your tongue.
In one of services one day, by revelation, I spoke prophetically about someone who was traveling to a far eastern country, precisely China. I said that the Lord would take the person there and bring them back safely.
A woman came out and said “Sir, I am the one you were talking about. I’m traveling to China this Friday.”
Then I said to her, “Go and return safely. See you when you come back.”
So, she travelled and went to China. But on her way back, between China and Dubai, in the course of the flight, about thirty-five thousand feet above sea level, the aircraft’s engine failed. The aircraft dropped in altitude by ten thousand feet within five minutes. It was dropping like a stone.
At this point the pilot announced, “Ladies and gentlemen, get ready for a crash.”
Then immediately, passengers started screaming and shouting. In a lamenting voice, someone beside her said, “Is this how we are going to die?”
But this woman, the member of our church who earlier received the prophecy, “Go and return safely. See you when you come back”, stood up and said, “If you are about to die, I am not about to die. My pastor told me, ‘See you when you come back. And he will see me when I get back’”.
After the declaration she began to pray in the language of the Holy Ghost.
All of a sudden, within five minutes, the aircraft gained altitude and stabilised.
Then the pilot announced again, “I don’t know what happened, but everything is in order now.”
Beloved, that was the impact of the tongue. You can live by your words and you can die by your words. But death is not your portion in Jesus’ Name. Your destiny is at the mercy of your tongue.
Remember this: Your destiny is at the mercy of your tongue.
