Speak ‘life’ (2) - All The Word for Today Daily Devotionals for 2026

‘Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’’ Joel 3:10 NKJV

Notice that the Bible doesn’t say, ‘Let the weak call their friends and discuss their weaknesses.’ Or, ‘Let the weak talk about their weaknesses.’ Or ‘Let the weak whine about their weaknesses.’

No, it basically says, ‘Let the weak say the opposite of how they feel.’ So instead of talking about the way you are, talk about the way you desire to be. Talk about what God’s Word says you can be, have, and experience. If you get up each morning feeling exhausted and beat down, instead of groaning about it, you need to declare, ‘I am strong in the Lord. This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it’ (See Psalm 118:24). When you do that, you will not only alter how you feel but also your attitude. You won’t step into the day with a tired, defeated, victim mentality. You will go out with a winning mentality, with a bounce in your step, with a grin on your face, and with your shoulders squared. When God’s Word becomes your word, it will lift your spirit and help you see yourself and your situations a whole new way. Jesus said, ‘Whoever says to this mountain, “Be removed and be cast into the sea,” and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says’ (Mark 11:23 NKJV). Note the words ‘he will have whatever he says.’ So, each day look in the mirror and say, ‘Good morning you blessed, strong, secure, confident, highly favoured child of God.’ In other words, speak ‘life.’
