Psalms 19:14 “Let the WORDS of my mouth and the meditation of my HEART , be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my STRENGTH and my REDEEMER.” [NKJV]
Don’t settle for your thoughts when you can choose God’s thoughts! Here’s how it works… This particular verse shows us that the emphasis is on us to keep our WORDS and HEARTS in check.
We are instructed that we will come into God’s acceptable sight when the WORDS we speak and the thoughts of our HEART are in line with His Word. As we apply this in our lives He becomes our manifest LORD, STRENGTH and REDEEMER.
God has always been careful with His words and His thoughts toward us… we should be the same! Our WORDS are influential and they are powerful forces that flow from our HEARTS. We must take great care with them in our daily lives.
The message bible says it so beautifully…
Psalm 19:14 “These are the words in my mouth; these are what I chew on and pray. Accept them when I place them on the morning altar, O God, my Altar-Rock, God, Priest-of-My-Altar.” (MSG)
So if you want to enjoy God’s acceptable sight towards you today, chew on His thoughts, words and ways and place your WORDS and your HEART on His altar in prayer.
