Psalms 64:8 NLT Their own tongues will ruin them, and all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
David was referring to his enemies when making this statement. However, this is a principle that can be applied to all.
When our speech is negative, filled with doubt, and hurtful to ourselves and others, we’ll reap what we say. We can negate any prayer or dream we have for ourselves and others with our words.
If we say I always get sick, that’s exactly what we’ll be. If we say a certain thing “never works,” we’ll have what we say. If we say our children are bad, lazy, or irritating, that’s what they’ll be.
Our speech is powerful (Prov. 18:21). It can create or destroy anything in our lives. Even inanimate objects like our yards or cars can be impacted by our words. Don’t ruin the things God has for you with negative words. Speak positive, speak life, and speak the truth, which is God’s word.
