Something has been happening lately that I wasn’t expecting.
Several people have stopped me at work and told me:
“Your posts have been blessing me.”
Some have said something I shared reached them exactly when they needed it. Others have told me that my willingness to talk about faith, leadership and purpose has given them more freedom to bring their whole selves to work.
I don’t take that lightly.
Especially because God has been doing some serious work on my mind and now, my mouth.
We’ve been studying Kingdom Shift. First, the shift was about our mindset. This week:
Shift Your Mouth.
In Numbers 13–14, twelve leaders saw the same land, the same giants and the same promise.
Ten essentially said: We can’t.
Two said: We can.
Same circumstances. Different confession.
And this stopped me:
They didn’t need a new promise. They needed a new confession.
Because when my mouth agrees with my fear, I can struggle to walk in the very assignment given to me.
Recently, I spent time asking God:
Who have You called me to be?
He reminded me of four words:
Minister. Speaker. Teacher. Encourager.
Yet sometime I allow myself to say:
I’m not good enough. I’m not smart enough.
Do you see the contradiction?
I cannot ask God to show me who He’s called me to be and then continue speaking a version of myself He didn’t call.
That’s grasshopper language.
I am reminded to replace it with Kingdom language.
From “I can’t” to “God can.”
From “What if?” to “What did God say?”
From speaking about how big the problem is to reminding the problem how big God is.
A renewed mind requires a renewed mouth.
What I believe, what I think and what I speak must align.
So I’m watching my words differently these days.
Not because every situation is easy.
Not because everything has worked out.
But because I refuse to let the problem become bigger in my mouth than God is in my life.
Maybe your next Kingdom shift isn’t a new opportunity.
Maybe it’s a new confession.
What language have you been speaking…grasshopper or Kingdom?
