She named him Ben-oni but his father named called him Benjamin.

16 Then they journeyed from Bethel; and when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth and she suffered severe labor.

17 When she was in severe labor the midwife said to her, “Do not fear, for now you have another son.”

We are allowed to name something.

To speak purpose and life and to give and identity.

(The Message)

God give man the opportunity, the access to give identity.

So God formed from the dirt of the ground all the animals of the field and all the birds of the air.

He brought them to the Man to see what he would name them.

Whatever the Man called each living creature, that was its name.

The Man named the cattle, named the birds of the air, named the wild animals; but he didn’t find a suitable companion.

God give man the opportunity, the access to give identity.

Whatever he named it or whatever he called it that was its name.

that’s what it would be.

The question become what will you name this situation coming you way.

Will you began to call it stupid and useless and ugly.

We have to understand everything what exist started out being a thought and then became a word.

(NASB95)

(NASB95)

3 By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.

We have to understand that the words that are spoken are directly connected to your faith.

And it is by faith that things are formed.

So the truth is this what come out of you mouth reveals where and what level your faith is.

Look at

The Triumphs of Faith

1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

2 For by it the men of old gained approval.

By faith the elders or the men of old gained approval or a good report.

Not a negative report naming there situation with death but speaking life and faith look at Noah and Abraham

(NASB95)

(NASB95)

7 By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

Now noah when he hears this could have began to speak negatively and curse God to his family but he preach righteousness and be came an heir of righteousness.

8 By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed by going out to a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going.

Abraham didn’t know where he was going.

He didn’t complain

But he was obedient to his call.

The problem with must Christian is we name the thing that we brought to us with our lack of faith and trust.

Have we forgotten what

says

says

20 With the fruit of a man’s mouth his stomach will be satisfied;

He will be satisfied with the product of his lips.

21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue,

And those who love it will eat its fruit.

Man shall be satisfied by what he says and the power of life and death is in his words.

If you love life speak life.

If you love death speak death.

If you love drama get saved.

Here it come.

What will you name it?

Here come a situation what will you name it.

Here come temptation.

What will you call it.

Here come persecution.

What will you name it.

Here comes shaking but will you call it.

Here comes somebody what will you say about them?

Here come your child what will you say about them?

You can always tell the people who lack the word of God in them by the things they say.

Rachael said give me a child unless I die.

Life and death comes out of the mouth.

Instead of speaking life to herself and her womb she reveals what is in her heart.

So the heart of man reflects man.”

“Watch over your heart with all diligence,

For from it flows the springs of life.”

Proverb 4:23

Now the word heart in the Hebrew is the word Leb, which means mind or thoughts.

Now remember you cannot separate one from his thoughts

What’s in your heart is what’s doing to come out of your mouth.

Doubt and fear and shame and hatred.

(NASB95)

26 Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,

27 and do not give the devil an opportunity.

28 He who steals must steal no longer; but rather he must labor, performing with his own hands what is good, so that he will have something to share with one who has need.

29 Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.

So when I feel the need curse somebody out instead I start speaking in the Holy Ghost.

Speak of complaining about others to others.

I began to pray for them.
