Question; Q1) What are the sense organs?

Answer: nose,skin,eyes,Tongue,hear.

Many christians know the answers to many questions but they don't know that the answers they had given can change their destiny or the situation around them. if and only if they have the knowledge of the answer they had given.lack of knowledge is synonymous to death(hosea 4:6).

"As my tall,dark ,handsome bro Flex(RCCG rose of sharon) will say: a christian without power is like a lecturer without knowledge". This is liken to a christian that answers a question without knowing the application of the answer.

As we all know like father like son. Lets take our father jesus who is also God.In the feeding of five thousand, he asked Philip where shall we find bread for these people to eat? He asked him only to test him.For jesus had already known what he will do in his mind but philip's reply was negative based on logistics (john 6:5-12).Jesus gave thanks and the situation became amiable to the people.Jesus gave only thanks because he his the word himself(john1).We are not the word, that's why we must speak Jesus who is the word with our tongue in any situation we find ourself.The name of Jesus is enough for every situation.

When I asked question( Q1), I had in mind to admonish christian to change their situation with the power of the sense organ of taste called tongue.

What is your situation asking you and what are you answering? Every situation is a test for a child of God and it always ask a question like Jesus asked Philip and the answer you give determines how much you know your God(dan11:32).Recall from John 6, God always know what to do in any Situation.He only wants to know how much you trust and know him.

If you are satisfy with your situation leave it but if otherwise, speak to it with your tongue.The mouth is the casing, the tongue is the instrument of change.Always speak positively in every unpalatable situation you find yourself.You will be shocked What God had in stock for you in that situation.God is beautiful for all situation(psalm48:2)

What are you saying to that situation that is weighing you down. Are you saying when there is a casting down, I will say there is a lifting like Job(Job 22:29) or you want to answer like Philip who was seeing the challenges in his situation and this made him to analyse it like an economist.Guys let's stand up now and start speaking to every challenging situations in our lives.

Finally, Good situation are live, bad situation are death. But you got the tool(tongue) of life and death to change trying situation, not only to use it to enjoy meals.is God not merciful?

Prayer Point

Father, please Let my Tongue speak to my ways of life and because of this, let me make heaven.
