SELF‑TALK

May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer. PSALM 19:14 CSB

It’s probably safe to say that when most people read this verse about the words of our mouths being acceptable to God, they think it applies to moments when we speak to or about other people. But it’s also vital to remember that the words we speak to ourselves can make or break the spirit within us too. Can you identify? When was the last time you thought, What am I doing here? I’m not as qualified as everyone else; I am inadequate; I can’t believe I just blew it again. Why keep trying if I’m just going to mess up again? The thoughts we think about ourselves are as important to God as the ones we think about others. The negative and positive self‑talk affects how we perform at everything. It’s hard to love on others when we talk ourselves down. So, may the words we speak and the meditations of our thoughts—whether about ourselves or others—be truly pleasing to God.

Oh, Lord, I can’t read my husband’s mind, but You know his every thought. You know the things he thinks about You, me, others, and himself. I pray that the meditations of his heart are pure and holy, positive, and filled with hope. I pray that he will fully embrace how amazing he is just the way he is. Guard his mind from thinking negative thoughts about himself. I want him to walk confidently in the truth that he was fearfully and wonderfully made by You. May he not miss hearing and receiving the loving words You say to him. Help my words to edify and honor him for the royal child, brother in Christ, and beloved husband that he is.IN YOUR PRECIOUS NAME I PRAY. AMEN.
