Deuteronomy 1:27
You kept grumbling in your tents and were saying, "It was because Jehovah hated us that he brought us out of the land of Egypt to hand us over to the Amorites to annihilates us."
At Deuteronomy 1:27 the Israelites were poised to enter the Promised Land. Yet, at that crucial moment, the Israelites started to complain about Jehovah. Their lack of faith was caused by the negative reports from those who spied out the land. Negative speech can also hurt us. One way we can prevent that is by filling our mind with positive things. Our thoughts are fed by what we see and read. We can also prepare to have up-building topics of conversation ready if we sense that a conversation is heading toward negativity. This is important because positivity is crucial to maintaining faith.
