Psalm 34:14 - How to have good days

“Who is the man who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good? Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it.”

Psalm 34:14

Do you experience good days? God’s Word tells us how we can have good days. We have to make a point to keep our tongue from speaking evil. This means that we don’t slander and defame others. We don’t gossip about people behind their backs. We don’t complain, grumble, find fault, or be critical. We don’t sin when we get angry and lash out to others in a fit of rage. Praises are on the lips of our tongue. This also means that we don’t lie about things and try to deceive others. We speak the truth and walk in it. We have to depart from evil. We have to do good throughout the day. We must seek peace in our relationships. We must pursue peace. If we do these things, we will have good days and have the life God wants us to have.

Father, we desire life. We want to experience many good days. Help us to keep our tongues from evil, and our lips from speaking deceit. May we depart from evil and do good. May we seek peace continually and pursue it with all we have. We thank You that if we do these things we will have and experience the good life You have for us. We will love our lives and our walks and fellowship with You will be sweet. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
