For by your words you will be justified and acquitted of the guilt of sin; and by your words you will be condemned and sentenced. Matthew 12:37

When Jesus died to save us, He wanted to save all parts of us and make us whole. And that includes our attitude!

Many people need to get their attitude saved-because every time something doesn’t go the way they want it to go, their first response is a bad attitude. When we don’t get what we want, our emotions flare up, and instead of doing what the Word say, we follow how we feel. We think wrong, and then what we think comes out of our mouths.

Words are containers for creative and destructive power. I can say. “Something good is going to happen to me,” or I can say, “Nothing good ever happens to me.” Either way, I’m likely to get what I say.

With our thoughts, our words, and our attitudes, we either give God permission to work in our lives or we give the enemy permission to work in our lives.

One of the best things we can do is learn to discipline ourselves to think before we speak. When something doesn’t go the way we want it to, instead of defaulting to being negative, have your mind set ahead of time that you are going to praise God anyway and trust that He has something even better in mind for you.
