Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional August 15, 2026 Saturday Message
TOPIC: The Power of Speaking Right
A man’s [moral] self shall be filled with the
fruit of his mouth; and with the
consequence of his words he must be
satisfied [whether good or evil].
Proverbs 18:20 (AMPC)
Words are wonderful when used with good
intentions. They can encourage, edify, and
give confidence. When we understand the
power of words and realize we can choose
what we think and speak, our lives can be
transformed. Our words are not forced on us
-they formulate in our thoughts and then we
speak them. We can learn to choose our
thoughts, to resist wrong ones, and think on
good, healthy, right ones.
When you get up in the morning, if there is
something you need to attend to that you’re
not looking forward to, you can say, “l dread
this day,” or you can say, “God will give me
strength today to do whatever I need to do and do it with joy”.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Father, Thank You for
always being ready to listen to me. Right
now, I’m asking You to please help me
choose words that honor You. Fill my heart
with truth so my thoughts and speech bring
joy, strength, and life to myself and to all the
people in my life, amen.
