25 Bible Affirmations and Scriptures for Success

Most people have no idea how powerful the words they speak are. There’s a popular saying, “words create worlds” that comes from the story of God creating the universe with His words. But, most people don’t realize that what they say creates the world around them.

We’re made in God’s image and likeness, so just like His words have creative power, so do ours.

James describes your tongue like the rudder of a boat—your life moves in the direction of your language. I have found in my own life, when I speak and declare what God says, I see things in my life change. I’m in a better mood, I trust God more, and I’m more successful.

Positive affirmations sound silly to a lot of people. They think that their words have no power, but they certainly do. What comes out of your mouth impacts everything around you.

Here is a list of 25 biblical affirmations and Bible verses about success. If you want to become more successful, start saying these affirmations out loud every day. Try it for a month and see what happens—I bet you’ll see something in your life change for the better.
