Proverbs 18:21 KJV

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

When you wake up and begin a new day, where do your thoughts take you?

Are they positive? Or do they tend to be more negative?

If you find yourself with more negative thoughts, embrace this spiritual truth: our lives move in the direction of our strongest thoughts.

Did you know that our words have the power of life and death (Proverbs 18:21)? That our speech is much more impactful than we sometimes want to admit (Proverbs 11:9)?Well, it’s true.

Have you ever had a teacher, parent, or kid at school speak damaging words that sank like heavy weights deep into your heart and mind? Maybe you’ve gone years thinking you’re unintelligent because of what a teacher has said in the past. Perhaps it was that you’d never be successful because of what a superior at work has said. Have you had someone who’s supposed to love you tell you you’re not worthy of love, so you believe it? The list can go on and on.

Or maybe, the opposite is true. Maybe you have said some things that have caused serious damage to another person. Perhaps you speak in a way that puts others down instead of building them up.

Our words can bind people up in lies that were never meant to define them. Thankfully, Jesus can set us free. He breaks chains and destroys lies that have been spoken into and over us (by others or by ourselves). But the point is that we can unintentionally be someone who puts another in a cage with our words. So, this year don’t only avoid saying negative things on your days, but take time to declare positive things on people around you, on your day, on your year.

Prayer 

The Lord makes me the head and not the tail, above and not beneath.I will always be at the top, never below.will not be sad or depressed because the joy of the LORD is my strength.I am blessed coming in and going out.can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I am beautiful and worthy✨

Amen❤️
