The Word translated powerful is Greek Word Energies and it also means productive, energetic, operative and effective.<\/p>\n<p>That means you can make the Word be productive in your life. You can choose to make the Word energetic, operative and effective. Don\u2019t allow your life to be dull. Your life shouldn\u2019t be ineffective. Don\u2019t allow your life to lack energy. Energize your life by meditating and speaking the Word continually.<\/p>\n<p>Psalm 8:2 \u201cOut of the mouth of babies and nursing infants you have ordained strength\u2026\u201d Even if it is babies that are speaking the Word of God, it\u2019s still strength to them.

He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Confession The Word is working and prevailing in my life and circumstances. The Word of God in my mouth is my strength. That Word makes me a success. In Jesus name. Amen Contacts +265888326247<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
