Today’s Scripture: Proverbs 13:2 ESV: From the fruit of his mouth a man eats what is good, but the desire of the treacherous is for violence.
Name it and claim it has a bad wrap doesn’t it? Abused without a doubt and what was intended for good can be distorted by the evil one and our evil desires. However, if we desire what God desires and speak what He pours into our hearts, we will produce good fruits and lives.
My search for God’s Affirmations came to me as I sought God in recovery. Living in recovery I have found that many of us are here not from our hurts, habits and hang ups but from what fruit we have allowed to come out of our mouths. Do we speak our lies or the truths of the Word of God? If we fill ourselves with His Word and speak it constantly we will live it. And it is good.
What fruits do you allow to cross your lips?
Today’s Prayer: Father God thank You for Your Word. Fill my heart LORD with Your words and produce those fruits to come from my mouth. May the fruits of my lips allow me to live and share what is good. You define me dear LORD and may my heart be fertile in receiving and producing Your fruit. Fill me and surround me with Your wisdom so I will live this life to the full. Amen
