A word can make you or break you,it can uplift you or trample you;it can discourage or encourage. Which ever one you choose to speak,or receive is up to you. However,you must remember that death and life are in the power of the tongue,and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof,according to Proverbs 18:21. The question is how are you using,and applying God’s word daily? Must I remind you,that He made all things. Jesus eloquently puts it this way,” O generation of vipers,how can you being evil speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man,out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things,and an evil man,out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you,that every idle word that men shall speak,they shall give account of it,in the day of judgment”. Which means we have to be very careful and not carefree with what we say,because,what you say,will be held against you,in God’s court,and He has it recorded. Therefore,when we speak God’s word,we have to make sure,He gives you permission,because,His words according to Jeremiah 23:29 is like fire,and like a hammer that breaks rock in pieces;and Hebrews 4:12 says,”For the word of God is quick and powerful,and sharper than any twoedged sword,piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit,and of joints and marrow;and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart”. Then Isaiah 55:11 is the scary one,He said,”So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth,it shall not return unto me void,but it shall accomplish that which I please,and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it”. Therefore,”Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth,but that which is good to the use of edifying,that it may minister grace unto the hearers,Ephesians 4:29 tells us.As a christian you know that 1John 4:4 says,”Greater is He who is in you,than he that is in the world”,which means God is speaking through you,so are you speaking His words to edify,encourage,strengthen your brethren or are you speaking the words of the devil that steals,kills,and destroy. In Jeremiah 5:14 it says,”Wherefore,thus saith the Lord God of hosts,because ye speak this word,behold,I will make My words in thy mouth fire,and this people wood,and it shall devour them. Watch the words that comes out of your mouth.”And thou,son of man,be not afraid of them,neither be afraid of their words,though briers and thorns be with thee,and thou dost dwell aming scorpions;be not afraid of their words,nor be dismayed at their looks,though they be a rebellious house. And thou shalt speak my words unto them,whether they will hear,or whether they will forbear;for they are most rebellious.[Ezekiel 7:6-7].
