We are continuing our series on the power of words. Words spoken over us can set the direction of our lives. As people who find their identity in Christ, we want to make sure our direction is set by God’s word, which is solid, and not by the careless words of others. If we allow what others say about us to drive our lives, we can get off track; but if we allow God to set our direction then we will live the lives we are meant to live. 

Ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand the words that have shaped the way you view yourself and the direction of your life. Pray that, over the course of this week, you will identify a verse from Scripture that applies specifically to you.
