Summary: When God is moving in your life, you may face criticism and misinterpretation from those who do not have God's anointing. It is important to not set uneven yokes and to use the weapons and methodology of God. Additionally, using the power of the prophetic Word and positive confession can activate the Power of God in your life. When one is filled with the Holy Spirit, your mouth acquires a special anointing and power. The things that you confess become keys that operate in the territory of Spirit and make certain things possible. David used the power of the prophetic Word when he faced Goliath and prophesied seven results that would come about through that encounter. When God has a purpose in the life of His Church, He needs someone on Earth to declare what He wants to do. Use your mouth to declare what God is to do in your life, by faith. Your mouth is a powerful weapon of war, and the prophetic declaration in faith can be used by God for extraordinary things.

We have seen two interesting things in this new anointing stage in David's life. Number one: when God is moving in your life you will experience criticism and misinterpretation from those who do not have God's anointing in their life.

Number two: when God is moving in your life do not set uneven yokes by thinking and analyzing things from a merely rational or cultural perspective, or of convenience, but make sure they are the weapons of God, the methodology of God, the scandalous way in that sometimes God moves to move in the lives of His servants that you are using to carry out God's purposes in your life.

I want to mention now a third important thing that we must keep in mind. It is about the use of the prophetic Word and positive confession when we are moving in the Power of the Holy Spirit. There is a moment when David is already presented to us in front of Goliath and we see the accusation, and the mockery on the part of this great giant and warrior who, upon seeing the weak and ridiculous weapons that David is using, says to him: "Am I someone dog for you to come before me with stones? "

And we see something interesting here, and it's the way David reacts to this intimidating word from this demonic presence that is Goliath. First Samuel chapter 17 in verse 45 says: "You come to me with sword, spear and javelin, but I come to you in the Name of the Lord of Hosts, the God of the army of Israel whom you have provoked. Today Jehovah will deliver you into my hand. "

I want us to look at these statements from David that are affirmative statements and as they predict what will happen at that time: "Jehovah will deliver you today into my hand, and I will defeat you, and I will cut off your head, and today I will give the the bodies of the Philistines, the birds of the sky and the beasts of the earth, and all the earth will know that there is God in Israel, and this whole Congregation will know that Jehovah does not save with sword and spear, because Jehovah's battle and he he will deliver you into my hands. " David is prophesying here. Through his Word he is activating the Power of God and there are at least seven results that he mentions that would come about through that encounter of him and the giant.

One might look at this and simply overlook it as a mere remark David makes or comments like that, in response to Goliath's insult, but I believe that something deeper is going on here. When one learns to discern the ways in which the Holy Spirit moves, the economics of the Pentecostal movement in the lives of believers, one learns that there is something very specific here that we can use to learn how to move that Power of God in our own lives. .

David is using the power of the prophetic Word. When a man, a woman is filled with the Holy Spirit, their mouth acquires a very special anointing and power. The things that we confess with our mouths become keys that operate in the territory of Spirit and that make certain things possible. God uses our mouth to open and close, to bind and loose, to tear down and build.

God's move in the lives of His children activates the power of the mouth. The children of God like God himself, we create through the word and the prophetic Word is one of the most powerful things. When we are discerning well the move of God we must use our mouth well to open and close, to declare things in the Name of the Lord.

This is what David does here. He is declaring by faith because he has not yet seen any of that unfold, but he by faith is saying: I am going to cut off the head of this giant, he is going to fall before me and I am going to give up his flesh and flesh. of his other warriors, and even Israel will know that Jehovah is Almighty God, and there will be a great revival in all the land of Israel. God was using David to declare all these things.

When God has a purpose in the life of His Church He needs someone on Earth to declare what He wants to do. That is why the well-known Our Father says: "Let it be done on earth as it is done in heaven." What we declare on Earth through the Holy Spirit and in alignment with the Word of God, God also declares with His creative mouth and unleashes it over time and space.

The Word of God is very clear, it says that if we untie or bind something on Earth, God will bind it or untie it in heaven, and we do that through the words that come out of our mouth. We can bind or loose the blessing of God or the evil purposes of man. A Church that knows the power it has through the prophetic declaration can be a great instrument in the Hands of God to unleash the move of God in a city or in a nation, or even in history.

David, inspired by the Holy Spirit, received this impartation from God and then he verbalized it, and that prophetic verbalization allowed the Grace of God to flow in him and for everything that he had prophesied to come true in his life. A great lesson that we can learn.

Use your mouth to declare what God is to do in your life, by faith. Many times you will be moving in something that you yourself do not understand but that God is perhaps using to release in the realm of time and space His wonderful purposes. Use your mouth to speak good things, to declare that good things are coming into your life. Make your mouth an instrument of war. Always prophesy God's blessing on others. Speak words of blessing and good expectations about your children, about your husband or wife, about your Church, about the ministry that you lead if you are a lay person who is active in the life of your Congregation.

The Word of the children of God anointed by the Holy Spirit is a tremendous and powerful weapon of war, the prophetic declaration in faith God uses it for extraordinary things. God bless you and until our next message.
