I heard a story about a neurosurgeon who treats people by using Word Therapy. He has his patients do what he calls mental
exercises for fifteen minutes a day.
Someone with high blood pressure is to say, "My blood pressure is one hundred twenty over eighty" for fifteen minutes every
day. This doctor reports that whether or not this patient understands what he is saying makes no difference; his body knows and
will obey him.
A person with sugar diabetes says for fifteen minutes a day, "My pancreas secretes sufficient insulin for this body." The patient
does not have to know what his pancreas is or does. His body knows and will obey his voice. The doctor said, "I don't know why
it works, but it does!" (the why is Mark 11:23!)
The doctor gave an illustration of a hopeless case - a woman who had terminal cancer. The doctors had done all they could for
her. She had been in terrible pain; but after three weeks of Word Therapy, all the pain left her body! Three months later, X-rays
showed no sign of cancer. She was totally healed.
If you will get an understanding that your spirit continually produces what you speak, you might realize why some bad things
happened in your life. Saying things like, "Man, trouble seems to follow me everywhere I go!" What is going on in your life -
trouble, all the time?
This is not mind over matter; this is God's Word over all matter. Words created your body and words will affect your body. Your
words cause you to be healed or to remain sick. It is the little things we say and do that will get us into trouble.
How about, "We're never going to be able to get out of debt. And the price of gas? I'll have to take a loan out to fill my car, ha
ha. I'll have to decide whether to drive to work or get groceries!" You might be half serious and half joking - but your spirit
doesn't know the difference. Your spirit will begin to lead you in ways that will keep you in debt and unable to fill your gas tank.
How important are your words in times of trouble? VERY.
When times of trouble come, what you say under pressure is one of the most vital ways to keep your life going in the right
direction. Do you confess what you see around you - bad economy, high gas prices, lay offs, grocery prices going sky high? Or
do you confess what God's Word says, "God supplies everything I need, over and above all I can ask or think. I don't care of
bread gets to $5 a loaf. If it does, God will provide me $5.50 so I can buy a loaf of bread and tithe, too!"
Find the scriptures you need for whatever you are facing then begin some Word Therapy today. Confess what you want 15
minutes a day (or more if you want to) until you see a change in what you are facing. You have His Word that nothing is
impossible with God so be bold!

SAY IT!
God will never fail me in times of trouble. I always have more than enough for everything I need. Nothing shall by any means harm me and no weapon formed against me will life and there is no death! I am safe going out and safe coming in and no evil shall befall me or my household. Angels surround and protect me and bring me to all my destinations safely. I have long life and will not die until I am satisfied. The power of life and death are in my tongue and I use my tongue to speak life over every situation in my life!
