Your Thoughts Becomes Your Words
Psalms 19:14
- Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
The words you speak are functions of what you think. Jesus said “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks”. In other words, it is what you meditate in your heart that leads to the words you speak and the actions you perform.
Believers are meant to be guided, the Bible speaks of we been transformed by the renewing of our mind (Rom.12:2). The word renewing in the Greek implies a change of thought, overhauling or rehabilitation of the mind. The mind is like an open field; whatever you sow on the field is what you reap. a farmer to sow a corn and then expect to reap an harvest of wheat.
Paul urges that we allow the words of our mouth be always with grace (Col.4:6), in other words, we must think on graceful thought and speak graceful things. This is achieved by feeding our mind with the word of God in meditation and in doing (Jos.1:8, Ps.1:4), it also greatly involved letting our mind grasp fully what Christ has done (Eph.4:23-24, Col.3:10).
Hence, by the renewal of your thoughts, the words you speak becomes pleasing and a sweet fragrance before men.
CONFESSION
My mind is renewed by the Word of God
And I speak words of grace and faith.
Amen!
