Dear God, Please Help Us Watch Our Words…

Good morning beautiful people. Proverbs 18:21 tells us that death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Today, let’s try to examine the words that we speak. Every word that comes out of our mouths, let’s examine it’s fruit. If it doesn’t build up, or it doesn’t edify ourselves or others then let’s not say those words. Sometimes even in our joking, words stay with the individual as truth. Ephesians 4:29 tells us Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. Now that’s good advice. Let’s pray:
Father, thank you for the power of your Holy Spirit to show us when we are speaking words that are not edifying. Father, your Word tells us in Proverbs 25:11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
Highlight our words today, oh God. May we be sensitive to every word that comes out of our mouths. Father, since we will eat the fruit of what we say, empower us to speak blessings over our own lives. Thank you for the folks you entrust us with, to speak blessings over their lives as well.
Oh, the power of your Word. Shape our lives according to your Word, we pray.
We declare we are blessed according to your Word, oh God. Amen
Have a blessed day beautiful people. Watch your words, speak God’s Word.
