Power of The Tongue By Jeanne Theriault
Proverbs 18:21 The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
How the tongue is used determines the future whether good or bad. Do you find yourself hurting others with your words?
Proverbs 16:24 Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the bones. We need to choose our words wisely words of encouragement and uplifting. Proverbs 13:3 He who guards his mouth preserves his life. But he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction. Whenever you speak out to others with words of discouragement or negative ,or their failures what kind of fruits are you producing?
Matthew 12:37 For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up. Luke 6:45 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks. So what is in your heart? Let’s not make excuses for saying hurtful things, take time to confess your sins to God allow him to heal your heart. Hebrews 3:13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.
Psalm 19:14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight O Lord my Rock and Redeemer. Let your words edify
Romans 14:19 Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.
There is power in the spoken word of God, it is always fruitful to speak the promises of God.
Thank you Lord for your everlasting love. Let our words be encouraging words to one another, to build up, uplift, to bless, to edify. May the words of my mouth and meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight
