SILENCE THE GAINSAYERS BY MEDITATION – Daily Devotional

SCRIPTURAL TEXT:
Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes
Psalm 119:23

Some people find themselves overly concerned about what others are saying about them. The danger of listening to what people say about you is that very soon you will believe or act in line with what they’re saying, and this will eventually affect your decisions and your destiny.

The writer of today’s scripture shows us the right approach; when princes spoke against him, he chose to meditate on the statutes of God. What a rare way to respond! It is so vital that you do not allow what people speak against you to become your meditation. It is a choice you can make. Following what people say will alter your divine destiny. Also, never seek to please men at the expense of pleasing God.

Choose rather to meditate on what God has said about you; that is the only truth. Every other opinion and sayings are a lie. As you choose to meditate and let God be true and every other thing a lie, the sayings of the gains layers will be swallowed up.Glory to God.
