The Bible is clear:

“The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” – Proverbs 18:21

So often, we curse ourselves without realizing it. We say things like:

❌ “I’ll never get through this.”

❌ “I’m not good enough.”

❌ “Nothing ever works out for me.”

But here’s the truth: What we speak, we become.

When we speak negatively, we partner with fear, doubt, and defeat. But when we speak God’s Word over our lives, we start to see ourselves the way He does—chosen, loved, equipped, and victorious.

💬 Today’s Prompt:

What words have you been speaking over yourself lately?

Do they line up with God’s truth?
What’s one negative phrase you can replace with a life-giving scripture today?

Here are some examples to get started:

✨ Instead of “I’m not enough,” declare “I am fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14).

✨ Instead of “I can’t do this,” declare “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13).

✨ Instead of “I’m broken,” declare “By His stripes, I am healed” (Isaiah 53:5).

👇 Drop your replacement phrase in the comments today—let’s fill this space with life-giving declarations and encourage one another to walk in faith through the words we speak.
