SPRINGBOARD DAILY DEVOTIONAL


APRIL 2.
“And Jesus, replying, said to them, Have faith in God (constantly). Truly I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, Be lifted up and thrown into the sea! And also not doubt at all in his heart but believes that what he says will take place, it will be done for him” (Mark 11:22-23AMP.)

From the opening verses above, it’s clear that your entire life and future is in your own hands. If you would use your mouth well or rightly, by speaking positively in line with God’s word, your life will be a blissful experience. This is because if you learn the value and practice of speaking in line with God’s word, you’ll experience victory after victory, and success after success.
The answer is under your nose; the power to change things is in your mouth; the victory is in what you say. So you must therefore permanently use your mouth to talk your way forward. The power of the spoken word is one of life’s revelations; all that you’ll ever become and accomplish hinges on how you choose to use your mouth. By what you allow to occupy your mind and mouth, you can either bless your life to great heights of success or send it down to realms of failures, sadness and discontentment.
So to be able to use your mouth well, you must learn to guard your heart and this can only be done by you saturating your heart with the word of God. Know that an unguarded heart will feed the mouth with unguarded and unwholesome words. Proverbs 4:23 (NLT) urges, “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life”.
What occupies the hearts of a man will invariably determine what eventually fills  his mouth. Apostle Paul in Romans 10:10 said “For with the heart a person believes (adheres to trust in, and relies on Christ) and so is justified (declared righteous, accepted to God), and with the mouth he confesses (declares openly and speaks out freely his faith) and confirms (his) salvation”. Beyond your salvation, this spiritual truth applies to other issues as well.
According to late scholar of the Bible, W. E. Vine, he defined two Greek words translated “confirm” in the King James Version as “to make firm, establish, make secure and to make valid, ratify, impart authority or influence.”The Greek word translated“confirmation”, he defined as “of authoritative validity”. So based on these definitions, we might say that verbal confession makes firm, establishes, secures, ratifies and gives authoritative validity to what a man believes.
Perhaps things haven’t really been going on as expected in your home, business, career, ministry or finances. It’s time to use your mouth to put that devil trying to mess you up where he really belongs. It doesn’t matter the challenges you face, you can change things through your words.

PRAYER:
 Dear Father, I thank you for your word in my heart and in my mouth. My life is in shape as I use my mouth aright, in Jesus name – Amen.
WE PASSIONATELY CARE ABOUT YOU
     We believe there is a void in every person that only a relationship with God can fill. We’re not referring to finding religion or joining a particular church we are referring to having a relationship with your heavenly father through his son Jesus Christ. We believe that knowing him is the source of true peace and fulfillment in life we encourage you to pray thus: Jesus, I believe you died for me and rose from the dead I hereby confess you as my lord and savior. I receive the life of God into my spirit and now am born again.

Thank you lord Jesus for the new life I have now in you. In Jesus name – amen

                                                  January 29. “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11) The life that we’ve been called to live in Christ is the transcendent life. It is a life that’s far removed from failure and defeat. It is a life in the word of God. To manifest the glory and splendor of this life, the word of God should become an integral part of us; what we live by. At salvation, we became associates of the God-kind; we’re joint heirs with Christ. Why then should any Christian suffer defeat and pain? The problem is that we’ve not given the word of God its proper place in our lives. God gave us His word to live by. His word is the revelation of His will, nature and character an...

February 18. “The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available (dynamic in its working)” (James 5:16 Amp) The happenings in our environments and the world over calls for our importunity in prayer. Out of ignorance a lot of people are blaming God for certain occurrences in their lives. But if things must change in the direction of God’s original plans and purposes, then we must keep praying. God knows that there’s no situation a child of His cannot change because the divine power necessary to effect such change is already resident in you; it was deposited in you the moment you became born again. God doesn’t expect you to cry out for help or start complaining but He expects you to enforce your victory in the place of prayer. I Kings 17 tells us of Elijah’s  confrontation with Ahab the king where he said, “… As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my ...

                                                  January 19. “And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great” (Genesis 26:13) Child of God, your journey this year has been ordained only in one direction – upward and forward. This is exactly the way God has called you to live your life. He wants your life to be that of progressand advancement – not in theory but practically. It means that at the end of this year, success will be evidently seen in every area of your life. This is because as a joint heir with Christ, you have the nature to be absolutely successful. You must therefore make up your mind to develop a consciousness – a mentality that’s consistent with your personality in Christ. Bible says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). So, you must refuse thoughts of failure occupy your heart bec...
