POWER THOUGHTS DEVOTIONAL
by Joyce Meyer
Thoughts and Words
From a wise mind comes wise speech; the words of the wise
are persuasive. Kind words are like honey --sweet to the soul and healthy for
the body." Proverbs 16:23-24
These
verses sow us that our thoughts and words are intimately connected --our words
come from our thoughts. They are like joints and marrow, so close it is hard to
divide them. Because of this, we must have pleasant thoughts so that we can
also have pleasant words.
It
is not possible to think bad thoughts and then speak good words, for out of the
heart the mouth speaks. Many people think they cannot control their thoughts,
but that is not true. We can choose what we want to think about and should do
so carefully because our thoughts become our words and our words affect our
lives in many ways.
When
a thought comes into your mind that you know will not bear good fruit or is not
pleasing to God, cast it out. Refuse to take it and meditate on it, but rather
replace it with something that will produce joy and peace in your life.
