Have you ever really listened to the words you speak? When I was first learning how important my thoughts and words were to my life, I started listening to what I was speaking. At the time I was working on my thoughts trying not to allow any negative ones in my mind, but while I was working on that I started noticing all the negative things I was speaking.
The words didn't seem like much, but as I kept track it really accumulated. They were just small things like "traffic is going to be bad", "my jeans don't fit", ECT. They didn't seem like they were a big deal but the Lord showed me even though they were little things, I was still speaking "negative" things.
They were just little things, but they build up and they keep your mind focused on the negative things instead of the positive things in your life. By saying those little negative things I was also losing my gratitude. You cannot complain and have gratitude at the same time and gratitude is one of the keys to the peace and abundance the Lord has for you.
Instead of saying traffic is going to be bad (which is speaking a negative situation into your life) you should say " I am trusting God to make my travel smooth no matter how much traffic there is. Instead of complaining that my jeans don’t fit anymore I should say that I am thankful for the pants I have on that do fit and I am asking the Lord to help me get back into the other ones.
Don't deny what is going on. If you find yourself in a negative situation, do not just say everything is ok. That is not speaking positive. That is just trying to ignore something and that is not what we are supposed to do.
For example it would be ridiculous to say you are feeling great when someone asks you how you are feeling when you are obviously sick. That doesn't help anyone, especially anyone who doesn't understand the importance of the spoken word, but we also do not want to give the enemy any foothold with our words.
When I am sick I do address that I am not feeling well, but I also state (speak out loud) that the Lord took all my sickness as disease, so he is going to make me feel better by the morning. Then I have my husband pray for me. The last three times I have felt like I was coming down with a cold I did this it never turned into a cold. I felt much better the next day. It was awesome!
Remember what you speak has power.
Pro 18:21
Death and life [are] in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.
