[Psalm 126:1-6 KJV] “When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, We were like them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing: Then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them. The LORD hath done great things for us; Whereof we are glad. Turn again our captivity, O LORD, As the streams in the south. They that sow in tears Shall reap in joy. He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.“
There are times when you find yourself between a hard place and the sea. Going forward seems impossible and returning is too scary, but the Lord we serve can give you a turnaround. You may be going through times that seem like you will never make, it but God will turn it around and you will make it. This week is pregnant with great news of miracles and turnarounds!
There are three key things that can delay your turnaround; these are the keys that will activate your turnaround:
1. Your tongue and words
The Bible says a wholesome tongue is a tree of life but a breach thereof is perverseness in spirit. What you say is what you get. Most of the times, your words are more important than your prayer. The Lord wants us to say what we want to see rather than what we are seeing. Your tongue and words determine your direction but your action will determine your destinations.
Your tongue and words determine your direction but your action will determine your destination.
When you learn to say the right things, your life will have the right direction but the only thing that brings you to your desired destiny is your action. Speaking right orients you but acting right drives your journey.
2. Your prayer
God moves on our prayers. When we pray, we defeat the forces of darkness and stay in charge. We gain dominion by simply engaging in prayer. Your prayer will disarm the princes of darkness and any weapon projected against your life! The Bible exhorts us to pray with all prayer and supplication in the spirit. You can activate your turnaround by your prayers. We want to spend the next 6 days enforcing a turn around.
3. Your seeds sown
The third key that activates your turnaround is your seeds and sacrifices. The Bible tells of a Moabite king who went to war against Israel and when the battle turned sour against him he slaughtered his son, and immediately, the tables turned in his favour.. There is so much power in seeds sown and sacrifices. Look at what the king of Moab did to activate a turnaround!
“And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to break through even unto the king of Edom: but they could not. Then he took his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall. And there was great indignation against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.” (2 Kings 3:26-27 KJV)
May the Lord activate a positive turnaround for you. May you see the manifestation of the grace to turn things around for your good in your life. Amen!
Stay blessed!
