Pastor Godman Akinlabi's message "Activating Life through your Words" centers on the Christian belief that the spoken word has creative power and can shape a person's reality. Drawing from the biblical passage in Proverbs 18:21, which says "death and life are in the power of the tongue," Akinlabi teaches that believers can use their words to align their lives with God's will and experience victory. 

Key takeaways from the message
Words have creative power: It is emphasized that believers can activate the Spirit of life by speaking words of faith, similar to how God created the world. Words are a tool of creation that can bring about God's desired outcomes.

Declare and prophesy: Believers are encouraged to make intentional, faith-filled declarations regarding their lives, families, and future. Declarations are the "voice of revelation," which give spoken life to what God has already revealed in His Word.

The danger of negative words: The message cautions against speaking defeat and negative confessions, which can undermine God's plan. Words can shape one's world for good or bad.
Standing in your authority: Declaring God's promises means standing in one's authority as a believer to enforce God's divine counsel in life.
Confess life and truth: In a June 2025 Instagram post related to the message, Akinlabi offered a powerful confession: "I speak life and truth. My words align with Your will, and I shape my victory. In Jesus' name, Amen"
