       This Lion Bites' word from Global Prophetic Network is what I needed to hear this morning.  Maybe you do, too?

PRODUCE

Dearly beloved, the power within you is to produce and multiply; and multiplication begins with your thoughts, good or bad. Whatever you set your mind to and speak in faith will come to pass. 


Every thought is like a seed that has the potential to produce much when brought into manifestation by the spoken word. For I will back your words with my power and enable their growth. However, be mindful of where these seeds come from and where you sow them, so examine your thoughts. 

Did they come from me? 

My seeds come with a guarantee to produce good fruit, and it's up to you to care for and nurture the seeds that you have planted.


They need ‘light’, ‘water’, and ‘good soil’ – the soil is your heart, and its condition is important to the development of the seeds and what they produce. 


Allow me to nurture the garden of your heart so that you will always produce good fruit. Allow me to remove that which is diseased and dying from your garden so that the seeds that you plant are those that will be allowed to grow to full maturity and bear much fruit.


Activation:

God wants our lives to be fruitful and that we always sow seeds that will produce good fruit in our lives and the lives of others.

  •  Examine the condition of your heart - Thoughts originate from the heart so it’s important to consult the Lord about the state of your heart. Allow Him to identify the areas that need healing. As He does this, submit to His instructions and His power as He brings renewal and healing to your heart.

  •  Ask God if you need to forgive anyone - Ask Him to bring to your remembrance anyone in your life who you need to forgive who may have spoken negative words to you either intentionally or unintentionally.  

  •  Blessing others - Ask the Lord who you can bless with His word.  Let God highlight to you anyone who you can speak words of blessing into their lives. Ask the Lord to guide your words, so that they will be directed by His loving kindness and His truth.

  •  Daily declarations - Take a moment each day to declare the ‘truth’ and prophecy ‘life’, as the Lord prompts you so that you will produce much goodness.

Galatians 6:7-8 (MSG)

Don’t be misled: No one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. The person who plants selfishness, ignoring the needs of others—ignoring God! —harvests a crop of weeds. All he’ll have to show for his life is weeds! But the one who plants in response to God, letting God’s Spirit do the growth work in him, harvests a crop of real life, eternal life.


Luke 6:45 (BSB)

The good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks.


Isaiah 55:11 (NIV)

So is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
