Your mouth/word is one of the most powerful tool/instrument which you've got. As a matter of fact, the words of your mouth can captivate/enslave you permanently or liberate you for life. Moreover, the words of your mouth can equally lead you into a mess and as well it can lead you to mercy.

Besides, he (God) has already taken care of those whose conditions/circumstances were worser/more miserable than yours e.g. Jabez, Esther, Modecaih among others. So, keep on trusting in him (God) even against all odds.

Everything that you've got already/whatever that you will get subsequently came/will come by grace but with faith. Oh! yes, it's never by your might/intelligence.
