Feeling Trapped?

August 4, 2024

Today’s Scripture

You are snared by the words of your mouth; you are taken by the words of your mouth.

Proverbs 6:2, NKJV

Today’s Word

Today’s Scripture doesn’t say we get snared or trapped by our thinking, or by our circumstances, or by what seems like an insurmountable obstacle we’re facing. No, what traps us is our words. Negative thoughts come to us all, and we can’t stop them from coming. The mistake we make is when we verbalize them. When you start speaking words of defeat, of lack, or of how you don’t see how a situation can turn around, you just gave life to that negative. If you continue to speak it, it will become a reality. The key is when these negative thoughts come, don’t verbalize them. If you don’t speak them out, those thoughts will die stillborn. They need words to come to life. It’s not okay to talk badly about yourself, to put yourself down, to find fault, to verbalize all the things you don’t like about yourself. Don’t be snared by your words; be propelled by your words. The key is to not say what you feel, what you think, what it looks like. Say what God says about you.

Prayer For Today

“Father, thank You that I do not have to keep being snared by the words of my mouth. I choose to not focus on or talk about negative circumstances and problems or faults I have but on what You say about me. Help me to keep speaking the right things. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”  ARCHIVE
