When Jesus said there’d be a man with a room, a colt tied up, a fish with a coin in it’s mouth—when He cursed the fig tree, or called Lazarus out, or laid hands on the sick—He was purposefully creating.
He wasn’t speaking in an oh-my-gosh-I hope-this-works manner. He understood that 1) all things belonged to Him already and in fact already existed in the Spirit, and 2) whatever He said would happen—His Father’s will being done on earth as it was [already] in heaven.
Speak with Purpose
He knew, because He knew the books of Genesis, Proverbs, Isaiah—every word that came out of His Father’s mouth—were true…He knew that speech was creative, because He was The Word that created all things.

He spoke with creative purpose, and told us to do the same. When He spoke to the storm, He expected it to obey…then turned to His disciples and asked why they hadn’t done it! Jesus knew that men were capable of creating with their words, because they were created by His Father, in His Father’s image, just like He was. He saw what happened at the tower of Babel—He saw David defeat Goliath with his words. He knew that He could speak to wind, to mountains and trees, and told us to do so as well!
The Centurion’s Faith
That’s why Jesus thought the faith of the Centurion was so great—he expected that when he gave an order, it would be obeyed. He knew that Jesus’ words would be obeyed by the physical realm in the same manner. He understood the authority of command.

It is vital to understand that words, spoken in purpose, backed by an inner image of the expected result, based on the Word of God, create.
Faith is seeing and saying and knowing it will come to pass. Therefore, speak with purpose. Speak to create, not as a last resort that may or may not work. Speak in accordance with the Word of God, speak knowing that your words create.
Words create—use them with purpose!
