For we all often stumble and fall and offend in many things.
And if anyone does not offend in speech [never says the wrong things], he is a
fully developed character and a perfect man, able to control his whole body and
to curb his entire nature.
James 3:2
Our thoughts and words about ourselves are tremendously
important. In order to overcome the negative thinking and speaking that have
been such a natural part of our lifestyle for so long, we must make a conscious
effort to meditate on and speak positive things about ourselves. We need to get
our mouth in line with what the Word of God says about us. Positive confession
of the Word of God should be an ingrained habit of every believer. If you have
not yet begun to develop this important habit, start today. “ I am the
righteousness of God in Jesus Christ. I prosper in everything I lay my hand to.
I have gifts and talents and God is using me. I operate in the fruit of the
Spirit. I walk in love. Joy flows through me.”
We can appropriate the blessings of God in our lives if we
will continually and purposefully speak about ourselves what the Word of God
says about us. We will receive positive results.

Lord, I will make the
positive confession of Your Word an ingrained habit of my life. Help me to get
my mouth in line with the truth of what you have done for me. Amen.
