Words and Heart that is acceptable to God.

“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.”
Psalms 19:14 (KJV)

1. The words of my Mouth

Our words reveal what rules our hearts. Jesus said, “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh” (Matthew 12:34).

We know how weighty words can be. But this verse applies not only in the pulpit—

in casual conversations
in moments of frustration
in correction
in encouragement

David doesn’t ask that his words impress people. He asks that they be acceptable in God’s sight.

That changes everything.

Before we speak, we should ask:

Does this glorify God?
Does this reflect Christ?
Would I say this if Jesus were visibly standing beside me?

2. The Meditation of My Heart

The heart is the hidden workshop of life. Meditation here means our thoughts, intentions, imaginations, and inner dialogues.

No one hears your private thoughts—
but God sees them clearly.

We often try to manage our words while neglecting our inner world. Yet David prays about both. Why? Because external control without internal surrender is hypocrisy.

God desires integrity:

Clean lips
Clean thoughts
A unified life

3. The Motivation: “My Strength and My Redeemer”

David ends by calling God:

My Strength – the Rock, the firm foundation.
My Redeemer – the One who rescues and restores.

This prayer is not the cry of a perfect man. It is the prayer of a redeemed man.

We do not ask God to accept our words because we are flawless.
We ask because He is our Redeemer.

It is grace that allows us to pray this prayer daily.

Keep Thy Heart

Proverbs 4:23 (KJV)
“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”

The Command: “Keep Thy Heart”

The word keep carries the idea of guarding, protecting, standing watch—like a soldier at his post. Solomon is not giving a suggestion; he is issuing a command.

In Scripture, the “heart” is not merely emotion. It is the control center of life—your thoughts, desires, motives, will, and affections.

What you allow into your heart will eventually show up in your:

Words
Decisions
Relationships
Ministry
Character

You don’t ruin your life overnight. You ruin it when you stop guarding your heart.

The Intensity: “With All Diligence”

This means “above all guarding” or “more than anything else you protect.”

We guard:

Our phones with passwords
Our homes with locks
Our money in banks

But do we guard our hearts with the same seriousness?

The enemy does not start by attacking your position. He starts by influencing your heart.
A compromised heart will eventually produce compromised behavior.

The Reason: “For Out of It Are the Issues of Life”

“Issues” literally means “the springs” or “sources” of life.

Your life flows from your heart the way water flows from a spring.

A bitter heart produces bitter speech.
A proud heart produces division.
A pure heart produces peace.
A Christ-centered heart produces stability.

If the spring is polluted, the stream will be polluted.

Ask yourself:

What am I allowing to shape my heart daily?
What voices influence my thinking?
What hidden attitudes am I tolerating?

Guarding your heart involves:

Filtering what you consume.
Examining your motives.
Staying tender before God.
Confessing sin quickly.
Feeding your heart with Scripture.

You cannot live a victorious Christian life with an unguarded heart.

Before you try to fix your circumstances, fix your heart.
Before you correct others, examine your heart.
Before you preach to people, preach to your own heart.

If your heart is right, your life will follow.

“Keep thy heart with all diligence.”
Everything else flows from there.

Learning to Wait on the Lord

Psalm 27:14 (KJV)
“Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.”

Waiting is one of the hardest disciplines in the Christian life. By nature, we want immediate answers, instant solutions, and quick results. Yet God often works through seasons of waiting—not to delay His goodness, but to develop our faith.

In Psalm 27, David was surrounded by enemies, uncertainty, and danger. Still, instead of panicking, he gave a command to his own soul: “Wait on the LORD.” This waiting is not passive inactivity; it is an active trust. It means resting in God’s timing, believing that He is working even when we cannot see it.

Notice that waiting is connected with courage. Fear says, “Act now before it’s too late.” Faith says, “Trust God even when nothing seems to be happening.” True courage is the willingness to remain steadfast while God prepares the answer.

God also promises something to those who wait—He will strengthen the heart. When we wait on Him, He renews our inner man. He gives peace in uncertainty, stability in storms, and endurance during trials. Waiting does not weaken us; it actually deepens our dependence on Him.

The repetition—“wait, I say, on the LORD”—reminds us that this lesson must often be learned again and again. When anxiety rises, when answers seem delayed, when circumstances are unclear, the believer’s response remains the same: Wait on the Lord.

Today, whatever you are facing, do not rush ahead of God. Trust His timing. He is never late, never careless, and never absent.

“I Know My Redeemer Liveth”

Job 19:25 (KJV)

“For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.”

Job spoke these words in the darkest chapter of his life. His health was gone, his wealth was gone, and even his friends misunderstood him. Yet in the middle of pain, confusion, and unanswered questions, Job made one of the strongest confessions of faith in all of Scripture: “I know.”

Not I feel. Not I hope. But I know.

Job’s confidence was not anchored in his circumstances but in his Redeemer.

The word redeemer carries the idea of a kinsman-redeemer—one who steps in to rescue, defend, and restore what has been lost. Job may not have understood everything, but he knew this: someone was on his side, someone was alive, and someone would have the final word.

And Job declares, “my redeemer liveth.”
Not lived. Not might live. But liveth—present, active, and victorious. This is a powerful reminder that our hope is not in a system, a philosophy, or even in our own faithfulness, but in a living Redeemer.

Even more remarkable, Job looks forward to the future:
“He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.”

In the midst of suffering, Job lifts his eyes beyond the present to the promise of ultimate restoration. This points us clearly to Christ—our risen Savior—who conquered death, lives forever, and will one day return to rule and reign. What Job saw dimly, we now see clearly through Jesus.

This verse teaches us that:

1. Faith does not deny pain, but it declares truth in the midst of pain.

2. Our Redeemer is alive even when everything around us feels dead.

3. The final chapter belongs not to suffering, but to salvation.

When life is uncertain, relationships are broken, or prayers seem unanswered, we can still say with confidence:

“I know that my Redeemer liveth.”

That truth is enough to carry us through today—and into eternity.
