Changing Hopeless Situations

Changing Hopeless Situations

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet…said unto him Thus saith the lord, set thine house in order: for thou shall die, and not live. Then Hezekiah turned his face towards the wall, and prayed unto the lord {Isaiah 38:1-2}.

Through prayer you can change any hopeless situation am not just referring to the kind of casual praying some folks engage in sometimes; I am talking about the earnest, heartfelt, continued prayer of the righteous man! That kind of prayer, according to the bible makes tremendous power available, dynamic in its working. (James5:16 AMP).

I have seen people who speak in tongues casually when something excites them or when something excites them or when they want to greet a fellow believer. Well, there’s nothing wrong with that, but however nice that may seem, such tongues are mere expressions in the realm of the spirit and don’t make much impact in your life as an individual. But there’s a way to pray in other tongues that stirs the power of God and causes it to produce result for you: I call it “turning your face to the wall.”

That’s the way to pray when you have something to deal with; when there’s a hopeless situation you want to change. Turning your face to the wall means to turn away from men and the world around you unto God! You shut out all the distractions of life and focus on God speaking in other tongues. The Bible tells us how king Hezekiah, after the prophet Isaiah had announced to him God’s verdict of death, turned his face to the wall and prayed intensely. The result of his action was that the sentence of death on him was immediately reversed and the lord added fifteen more years to his life (Isaiah 38:4-6).

Do you have something specific you want to call the attention of the spirit to? Find a quiet place where your spirit can be calm enough to hear God, and start speaking in other tongues. It may be somewhere behind closed doors, an open space or even on your bed so long as it‘s a place where you wouldn’t be easily distracted, get on your knees before the Lord and begin to pray! Call that thing by name and speak in tongues with the passion and intensity of the spirit.

Soon enough, the Holy Ghost will help you form words with which to address that situation. Somehow, you will start having the interpretation to what you are saying and you will find yourself speaking forth God’s word that will change things. Always pray as you turn your attention away from all distractions unto God, speaking in other tongues; thank God because His word comes to you as rhema and that as you speak forth that Rhema-word, negative circumstances are changed, and hopeless situations are turned around, in Jesus Name.

Also there’s power in your confession, the word of your mouth matters. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof (Proverbs 18:21).The power of tongue is an unfamiliar subject to many Christian today. The Bible didn’t say that death and life are in God’s hands. Rather, it says they are in the power of the tongue! The tongue is small in size but it directs the course of your life!

Often times, when people want something from God, they will cry, roll on the floor, whine and belly ache, not realizing that the power to get what they want is in their mouths. Jesus taught on the creative power and potency of our mouth-work in Mark 11:23 “For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass, he shall have whatsoever he saith.”

God has given you his word and a tongue to create the future you desire. You can be everything God has planned for you to be and attain the greatest height of success in life if you‘d learn to use your tongue right. Never talk failure, weakness, sickness, lack or fear! Speak faith filled words all the time. Build your future with your tongue. The power to live a successful, prosperous, glorious and victorious life is in your mouth, not with the lord. He’s already done all that’s necessary for you to live a glorious life, now He expects your confessions every word you speak to align with His Word. Are there good things you desire in your life today? All you need do is speak them forth, and you shall have what you say.That’s faith! No matter what the problem may be or how big it may seem, the solution is in your mouth, speak God’s word and see it resolved. So your confession can change hopeless situation.
