A person is involved in a head-on car collision with a drunk driver. The person suffers from a broken leg, broken ribs, and concussion like symptoms. One of the broken ribs has punctured a vital organ. The doctors have them sedated to limit their movement and to prevent further injury.

When a tragic event occurs in our lives or in another person’s life, the first thing we must do is be mindful of our confession. Proverbs 18:21 says, death and life are in the power of the tongue. A lot of people may ask questions about the incident. We don’t want to go around speaking death into the situation or talking about what could happen. As long as we’re speaking death into the situation, that’s what it’s going to be.

Prior to the accident, the Word of God says, we are healed, we are in good health, and we shall live and shall not die (Isaiah 53:5; 3 John 1:2; Psalms 118:17). Although the situation changed, the Word of God doesn’t change. We or that person are still healed and we will remain alive. Mark 11:23 also says, we shall have what we say. If we want to see the manifestation of divine health, we need to speak it into existence.

This is not an opportunity to argue with the doctors. The doctors are simply stating facts. What we must remember is the truth, in the Word of God, can override facts. Hear the facts, but override them with the Truth.

Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.
