Say Not

June 8, 2024

Today’s Scripture

Then said I, Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am only a youth. But the Lord said to me, Say not, I am only a youth.

Jeremiah 1:6–7, AMPC

Today’s Word

God told Jeremiah that he was going to become a prophet to the nations, but Jeremiah responded, “I’m too young. I don’t know how to speak.” Doubts and insecurities filled his mind. God answered, “Jeremiah, say not that you’re too young.” He knew that if Jeremiah went around speaking negatively, he would miss his destiny. God was saying, “Don’t give life to doubts, weaknesses, and insecurities.” When you start to criticize yourself, when you tell God what you’re not, what you don’t have, and what you can’t do, God says, “Say not. Zip that up. Quit speaking lack, disadvantage, flaws, or defeat.”

When God created you, He put in you everything you need to fulfill your destiny. He gave you the right looks, the right height, the right personality. You have the gifts, the confidence, the wisdom, and the favor. Now start speaking positive, faith-filled words. When you speak victory in the face of defeat, health in the face of sickness, abundance in the face of lack, God will do what only He can do and bring it to pass.

Prayer For Today

“Father, thank You for Your calling upon my life. Help me to not just zip my lips when I have negative thoughts, but to use my words to declare victory. I believe that as I speak positive, faith-filled words, I will see You release Your promises in my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”ARCHIVE
