Always agree with God’s Word - All The Word for Today Daily Devotionals for 2025

‘The mouth speaks what the heart is full of.’ Luke 6:45 NIV

Do you think of yourself as a person who has faith in God? Do your thoughts and words reflect that? We can deceive ourselves into thinking we have great faith, but if challenges easily defeat us, then maybe our faith isn’t as great as we thought it was. Jesus said, ‘… The mouth speaks what the heart is full of.’ (Luke 6:45 NIV) You can learn a lot about yourself by listening to what you say.

Do your thoughts and words show your dependence on God, recognising that His abilities, not yours, enable you to do anything you need to do? To get your words right, you must get your heart right. And to do that, you must line your thinking up with God’s Word. That means being willing to face anything He wants to show you and asking Him to change you. If you’re trusting in your own strength, start trusting God instead. If you’re attempting to do things through your own abilities and becoming irritated, let God know that you want Him to work through you, and allow His sufficiency to be yours. Paul writes, ‘Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God’ (2 Corinthians 3:5 NKJV). Your words are like containers, so don’t fill them with things that disable you. Instead, stand on this Scripture: ‘And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work’ (2 Corinthians 9:8 NIV). When you speak, always agree with God’s Word.
