And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest. Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Ezekiel 37:3-4 (KJV)

(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. Romans 4:17 (KJV) emphasis mine

Prophesying is proclaiming what God says. It is declaring the end from the beginning.

Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure. Isaiah 46:10 (KJV)

In other words, God gives us a word to change anything we face. Life does not have to dominate us. We have dominion over life and dominion in life by speaking the Word of the Lord; by saying what God says.

I had a job that was only supposed to last three months, according to the company. But I said that it would last as long as God wanted it to last. I was not limited or controlled by what the natural circumstances said. I gave the situation to God with my words, and as a result, I was on that job for three YEARS, not three months. Then I moved on as God directed me.

We really do have the upper hand and inside information with God when we listed to what He says and line our words up with His. Our lives will be just as He says when we say what God says.

As we declare the Word of the Lord, we will have what God says we can have, we will do what He says we can do, and we will be what God says we can be. As we speak by the Spirit of God and prophesy and proclaim the prophetic Word of God, our lives will line up and we will be ushered into a future that is bright and beautiful.
