Mark 4:24:
“Consider carefully what you hear,” he continued. “With the measure you use, it will be measured to you—and even more.”
This is what I’m talking about, people!!! I have talked about the importance of a healthy thought life and speaking habits in past posts. The proof is in the pudding…or scripture, I should say.
It says be careful. Be careful what you hear. Why? It is my belief that what you hear, what you say is a form of meditation. You need to be hearing the word of God, you need to be hearing encouraging, uplifting messages, and God’s promises. Negativity and complaining can become an easy trap to fall into…so be careful!
It’s like the phrase…you get what you give. What you hear, or even what you say will be measured. Do you want to measure negativity? Do you want to measure positivity? Whatever you measure is what you will get, and the scripture says…and even more!!!
Let your faith be measured…
Let your hope be measured…
Let your trust be measured…
How do you measure faith, hope, and trust??? By bringing life to the words you choose to use in your circumstances.
Amen to that!!
