Dear Church Family,

I would like to say that FOCUS brings energy and power to almost anything you do. The future of your business or career depends on the focus you put into it.

A double-minded person constantly swings between conflicting choices in his life, achieving nothing but confusion and disarray. Discover the power of focus and let God's creative glory bring energy and power to all you do.


Yours For Revival,
Ptr. Dondon Francisco Jr.

USE YOUR WORD POWER TO CREATE GOOD

Every word we speak is actually a creative word. We create frivolity. We create sobriety. We create strife. We create ease.

Our world is constructed by our words as we saw in Proverbs. Words are potent, They create hurt or health. They create blessing or cursing.

We can speak words of our own and create problems, or speak God's words and create solutions.

We can speak words and create a hell, or speak God's words and create a heaven.

Jesus said, it is the thought life that pollutes. For from within, out of men's hearts, come evil thoughts of lust, theft, murder, adultery, wanting what belongs to others (covetousness), wickedness, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, pride, and all other folly. All these vile things come from within; they are what pollute (a person) and make (people) unfit for God.

As men speak words of lewdness, deceit, war, and animosity, they create the world in which these things exist. The secular world as it exist today was recreated by men whose hearts were apart from the Spirit of God. These men were subject to Satanic influence, so when they spoke what was in their hearts, Satan's influence permeated the world. Look at the newspaper. What we see around us is not the world as God created it, but the result of man's influence by the words he speaks.

Your words come from your heart

Whatever is in a person's heart, whatever is in the thought life, will come out in words. No wonder God says He will call every person to account for every idle word spoken

Matt. 12:36 But I say unto you,That every idle word that men shall speak,they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment

When the Spirit of Christ is in us, God gives us His thought life through His Word. Reading God's Word is not a contest for time or length. It is taking in the very life of God through His Word . God gives us the mind of Christ in and through the Word of God.

As we begin to think God’s thoughts, we will begin to speak God's words. As we speak God's words, our world is recreated. It is heavenly! The ingredients of heaven are love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance. These are also known as the fruit of the Spirit.

Gal 5:22,23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

These fruits within you come out through your words and are reflected in your world.

The Bible says, When men say, Lo, there is the Kingdom of God, don't go after them. For the Kingdom of God isn't here or there. Behold, the Kingdom of God is within you.

Luke 17:20, And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

V21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you

By the indwelling of the Spirit of God, the Kingdom of God is within you, and the very Word of God becomes your thought life. The Spirit of God becomes the anointing the life of God in you.

Psa. 22:3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

When God says in His Word that He inhabits the praises of His people,

He means literally that. When our hearts overflow with gratitude and thanks to God, we praise Him and fill the air with words and songs, thereby creating an atmosphere in which God's presence is experienced.

Get your heart changed, then let the new words of life flow from you. Negative people will shun you, and positive people will begin to be your friends. They'll bring more positives into your life.

If everyone in the world today repented, received the Spirit of Christ, and began to speak only Spirit-inspired words, our world would change. We would have heaven right here on earth. That's what heaven will be like.

Do you have a need or does someone you know have a problem? Then pray about what to say, and then say it with the authority of Jesus. Let the Holy Spirit bring healing into your life through speaking the words of Jesus. Jesus gave you the authority to speak His words. You are His mouth, His eyes, His hands, His ears. You are the Body of Christ here on earth. Regardless of who is in need, if the Lord gives you a healing word to speak, then speak it in Christs stead.

Speak words of faith, not fear, and see what God will do!

Live victoriously by being purified from failure, confessing Christ and speaking God Word. Invest in study of God's Word and prayer to prepare you for next change or crisis.

You may fail from time to time, but if you’ll take these principles to heart, and never quit, you will become a winner!

God is the author of your success. Trust Him. Be free in Him. Live free.

Remember:

* Man is created in the image of God, with a measure of God's creative in his word.

* We influence the outcome of our lives with the words we speak. Our world is constructed by our words. Words are potent.

* As you begin to think God's thoughts, you will begin to speak God’s words. As you speak God's words, your life is changed into a place worthy of the Living God.

* Change your heart, change your words, change your world.

The power of FOCUS.
