A Bible Devotion

Talk To Things

MARK 11:23 NKJ 23 "For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, `Be removed ....

Too many people think of the Bible only as a Holy book to be revered. So they put it up on a shelf and make sure no one mistreats it.

But the Bible is a message from God. It gives us instruction for our benefit -- practical advice.

It's time to take the Bible down off the pedestal, read it, and act on its instructions.

Here is one seldom acted upon: talk to things.

The devil wants you to think it would be crazy to talk to things. But it's not.

Jesus did it. He talked to sickness. He talked to the storm and told it to be still. He talked to dead bodies and commanded them to get up. He talked to trees. And He talked to the devil and told him to get behind him.

Jesus talked to things. You should too.

You should talk to fear and worry. You should talk to confusion. You should talk to lack. You should talk to sickness. You should talk to the devil. Tell them to leave. Tell them to "be removed."

LUKE 17:6 NKJ 6 So the Lord said, "If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, `Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.

SAY THIS: Jesus said I can talk to things. So I speak to everything that is of the devil and command it to get out of my life now!

In early recovery, at the end of the day, I would take my Bible and say a prayer and open it and read where my eyes fell. Later on, someone gave me the Bible Serenity, and it crossed referenced the Steps with the Bible.

I found that the nightly meditations I had done for the first year of my recovery, were all related to the Steps, except two. I had been working the Steps and hadn't even known it. I had taken a list of my meditations to the women in my home Group and shared them with those who wanted them. One woman who later spoke at my 7 year anniversary, shared at how much those meditations helped her. You just never know when something you say or do will help others.
