Power of the Tongue

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit. Proverbs 18:21.
                            Our words are very powerful than we realize. Speaking negative words will open the door for enemy. The word of God has life and unlimited power. Confessing God’s word and speaking faith filled words with our mouth will bring changes in our life. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says - Mark 11:23.                          
                             The words we speak have life and power. God created all things in heaven and earth with words. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast - Psalm 33:9. Let us fill the mouth with life and not death. Tongue can be tree of life - Proverbs 15:4. As there is death and life in the power of tongue, let us pay attention to the words we speak. Teach me, and I will hold my tongue; Cause me to understand wherein I have erred. How forceful are right words - Job 6:24,25.
                        We are accountable to God for every idle word we speak. Let us encourage one another with the words we speak. Speak pleasant, wise, kind and tenderhearted words that builds others and gives grace to others. Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, Sweetness to the soul and health to the bones - Proverbs 16:24. Let us speak only the words that build others and gives grace to others who hear - Ephesians 4:29. Find opportunities to speak kind and tenderhearted words - Ephesians 4:32.    
                 
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to speak only the life giving and faith filled words. Set a guard over our mouth and watch over the door of our lips. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
