Guard your tongue...!

James 3:7-10 NKJV

For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. But no man can tame the tongue. It  is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

Shalom! Day #45. Do you know that though the tongue is small, yet it has power to speak life or death in every situations of our lives? Let's pray. Father, we pray let not our tongue speak death but let life proceeds from our mouth. Teach us to speak life. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Every kind of beast and bird, or reptiles and every creation of God is able to be tamed except for one, our human tongue. It has the power to release life or to bring death. It has the power to create heaven on earth or bring hell on earth. Well, today's word is important for us, being as a believer we must really deal with what comes out from our mouth. The words we speak can really hurt people. It's sad to say, but No, NO man can tame the tongue. For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. But no man can tame the tongue. It  is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

So...what can we do?

1. You must watch what you speak.
⊙ Words spoken harshly cannot be taken back, once it's out, it is out! God was very careful with His words when He created the universe and mankind. Stop being gossip mongers. Your words can kill a person.

2. Confess the word of God.
⊙ in every situation you go through, confess the word of God. If you are going through hard times, keep calm and confess he word of God instead of confessing negative words which brings death into the situation.

3. If you don't have anything good to say, then shut up...!
⊙ woaa... sorry, but I have to say this. Many people instead of solving the issue, they just throw their words without thinking about others feelings. If you don't have anything good to say, then remain silent. Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing.

So folks, please I beseech you to be mindful of what you speak.

Ephesians 4:29 NKJV

Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
