THE WAY TO TOTAL HEALTH

Proverbs‬ ‭16:24‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

24] Pleasant words are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭16:24‬ ‭TPT‬‬

[24] Nothing is more appealing than speaking beautiful, life-giving words. For they release sweetness to our souls and inner healing to our spirits. 

GOOD DAY: I noticed a poster at the train station some days back that read “love yourself because it is the only thing that you have". It caught my attention throughout the day and I kept wondering how to love myself. Jesus called loving my neighbor as myself the second most important commandment so I have to love myself in obedience to God. It dawned on me that I am the only person I have to make myself happy. I have to choose what I will be to myself either friend or enemy. I choose to be my friend and the scripture for consideration today came to my mind. 

I must speak pleasant life-giving words to myself and choose to hear such words alone. If I don't do it, nobody will do it for me all the time. The same thing goes for you. The first thing I noticed are the bad thoughts that come to my mind, thoughts that are not pleasant and come with fear or anger or resentment and other such negative feelings. Since those feelings really injure me, I then learnt a basic pleasant word I speak to myself immediately they come. I don't fight or resist the thoughts so they don't take root but I simply tell myself that God's thoughts towards me are those of good and not of evil and that all things work together for good for me. I begin to rejoice for the good such thought is bringing to me. The thought automatically melts off leaving me happy and refreshed for the good it brought to me. It actually feels great to hear good words about yourself spoken to yourself. Look for a set of good words to speak to yourself first thing in the morning and see how great you will feel. You will also observe things aligning to work for your good. This is how I have been feeling good and maintaining my joy level no matter the obvious reality for every obvious reality whether good or bad will work together for my good. Learn to speak good words to yourself always.

Today's exercise: write out the good words you love to hear and speak it to yourself every morning. It makes your struggle to get things done very minimal.

PRAY: Dear Lord, I have waited for others to speak good words to me without having them do it long enough. Help me to speak good and pleasant words to myself consistently.
