James 3:6 KJV
And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and is set on fire of hell.
The words that we speak are very important. Satan uses our words to bring us down, and make us feel like we can never be good enough for Jesus Christ. The words that we speak is a doorway to our heart. The tongue can be a very dangerous thing. Feelings can be hurt, wars can start, and our mind can be persuaded through manipulation to believe satan's lies; all through the use of words. We should then take great care in what we say to others, and the consequences of our words.
But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. (James 3:8 KJV)
Challenge: I challenge you today not to use foul language, or insult others in their presence or behind their back. Think about the consequences of what you say before you actually speak to people, and if you slip ask for the Lords forgiveness right way. I assure you that it will brighten up your day, and the Lord will bless you.
In His Service,
Walter Karroll
