I NEED TO ALIGN MY MOUTH WITH MY FAITH
So they spread this bad report about the land among the Israelites: “The land we traveled through and explored will devour anyone who goes to live there. All the people we saw were huge. (Numbers 13:32 NLT).
We should align our mouth with our faith. We need to watch our words.
Our words have more power than we can imagine. With our mouths we can bless or curse, encourage or discourage others, give peach or provoke more problems, give life or death.
The tongue can bring death or life;those who love to talk will reap the consequences. (Proverbs 18:21 NLT).
After the ten men recognized the land God had promised them, they returned speaking badly and the consequence was that the rest of the people ended up crying, unmotivated, and delaying the blessing God had for them.

Then the whole community began weeping aloud, and they cried all night. (Numbers 14:1 NLT).
Lord, I renounce to negativity. Help me to align my mouth with your Word. Give me wisdom to speak in a way that encourages others, and gives faith and hope.

Think about it:
Are your words normally words full of faith or negative? What do you provoke in others when you express your opinion? In what ways do you think it would benefit others to align your mouth to the Word of God?
