when I haerd that by faith declaratios, I can chart the course of my life, I started to practice it. thus i began to speak God's word concerning every area of my life. about my education, I'd always say "I have asound mind and I'm ahead of my peers in Jesus name". at first, it was as though nothing was happening but guess what - before I started college, there was a test I had to take to dtermine whether I'd take any developmental courses or not. I spoke in tongues and took this 3hr test and when the results came, it was unbelievable. I had surpassed the school's expectations and I believe it's all about the Word of God that I keep confessing. So if you are born agin, know that YOUR WORDS ARE NOT EMPTY. catch u later.
