โBut David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.โ
โ 1 Samuel 30:6 KJV
Our brain has the amazing ability ๐๐ผ ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐, ๐น๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ป, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐บ ๐ป๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐.The more we repeat something, the more those patterns can become reinforced. This is where we were reminded to pay attention to the words we speak, especially the words we speak to ourselves.
Every word we say ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ป๐ฒ๐ด๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ is registered by our minds. In moments when we are facing difficult and overwhelming situations, it can be easy to speak words of fear, defeat, and doubt. But just like David, who was greatly distressed ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ต๐ถ๐บ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ณ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฑ, we can choose to speak words of faith even when our situation is difficult.
There is a connection between what happens to us and how we respond: ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ถ๐, ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ณ-๐๐ฎ๐น๐ธ, ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฒ๐บ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐, ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ฟ, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐๐น๐๐ ๐๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐
๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ. What we repeatedly tell ourselves can reinforce the way we think, feel, and act.
That is why we need to sanctify our tongue and become intentional with our words. Instead of constantly saying โ๐ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ปโ๐,โ โ๐โ๐บ ๐ฎ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฑ,โ ๐ผ๐ฟ โ๐ง๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ธ,โ let us learn to declare the ๐ช๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ผ๐ฑ over our lives.
โFor the word of God is quick, and powerful...โ
โ Hebrews 4:12 KJV
The more we learn the Bible, ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐บ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ด๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐. The more we fill our minds with God's Word, the more we have truth to speak when challenges come.
โDeath and life are in the power of the tongue...โ
โ Proverbs 18:21 KJV
