From Consideration to contemplation to meditation.
Then, it is alll you can think about.
Then, imagination. See yourself doing it.
Keep your mouth shut. Don’t say a lot of things.
Matt 12: 33,34
Out of the abundance of the heart
the mouth speaketh.
What’s in your heart will come out of your mouth.
Put the Word in your heart.  Speak the Word.
We will give account for EVERY idle word Matt 12:37.
Believe it! Have faith.
Faith filled confessions.  Fathfulness of the Father.  All the promises in God are 
yes and amen.
Speak the Word only.
Life and death are in the power of the tongue.
