Your Words On The Wind

Do you know how powerful your spoken prayers are? 

Ezekiel reveals a technique of the prophetic we often miss. He is told to simply put out his words in the wind. “Speak a prophetic message to the winds, son of man. Speak a prophetic message and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, O breath, from the four winds!’” (Ezekiel 37:9)

Imagine that the winds are ministering spirits sent forth to the heirs of salvation. Imagine that these winds are spirits sent to accomplish the words spoken. Imagine that these winds are coming from the breath of God and seeking to join His words from your mouth. God's words from your mouth enter the atmosphere and mingle with the wind to be sped off on their ordained mighty purpose.

How do you do this? Write a crafted prayer. This is a Spirit-led document that outlines your need and petition in a specific area. Add God's promise and rehearse His sufficiency. Commit what you shall do and what God's Word promises He will do.

This is an agreement—a crafted, thought-out prayer and declaration. Take it out to where you can speak it to the wind. Send your words on an assignment…and don't be surprised if the wind starts moving around you, even indoors!

Prophesy to the wind. This is biblical. Write a crafted prayer and deliver it. Watch your awareness of the wind and angels multiply afterward.

Have you done this exercise before? What movement did you perceive in the Spirit?
