“For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” Matthew 12:37 NKJV Bible Gateway
You are what you say, it is true. The father of negativity is the devil. He loves it when you go on pity parties thinking you are not enough, or that you will surely die, or that you are old and you are surprised you are still functioning. I had to tell someone recently to stop it.
Your words reveal the condition of your heart. Start confessing positive uplifting things now! Don’t get into a mode where you are comparing yourself to friends or celebrities. The only person to compare yourself to is Jesus!
Are you able to stop nay saying and condemning yourself by your words? Get in a habit of catching yourself when you start to criticize yourself and put yourself down. Be on guard and keep your words uplifting not digging a hole.
PRAYER: Lord I thank you for friends and family who are there to pull me out when I fall into ditches of negativity or criticism. Help break that stronghold in my life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

When we have problems with our words, we should check our hearts.
ReplyDeleteLuke 6:45
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
