What kind of legacy are you creating?

In this new year, it is vital that we put a watch over our mouths to ensure that they words we are speaking are aligned with God’s word and will. Death and life are in the power of the tongue and as ambassadors for Christ, we need to understand that we represent the King in this earth realm. Therefore, we need to pray every day that God give us wisdom to speak as the oracles of God and not like those who do not care of the repercussions of their words. Watch what you say and do, because it is creating and environment and a legacy. The question is: is the legacy you are creating glorifying God or helping to destroy this generation?

Psalm 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.”

So it’s the day after Thanksgiving. Now what?

So it’s the day after Thanksgiving. Many resume their busy schedules which don’t leave them any time to thank God, to pray or to meditate on His word. Thanksgiving is only a holiday for them. It was the same way during Jesus’ earthly ministry. There were many religious people around Him. He knew their hearts. In Matthew 15:8, Jesus said: These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me”. Wow, that is very revealing. My question to you today is: Are you praising God with a grateful heart every day? Are you mixing your daily praise with genuine thanksgiving? Our Lord Jesus knows our hearts, and gratitude and thanksgiving pleases HIm. It pleases Him when we thank Him on Thanksgiving day, but true thanksgiving is an everyday relational experience, and thankful people will see all of the hidden blessings all around them, while the unthankful will miss God’s greater blessings. Remember this: This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it (Psalms 118:24), even the day after Thanksgiving is the day to praise Him and be thankful!
