| Publisher Description: Descendants of God, our tongues have a lot of Power.Proverbs 18:21 confirms this by saying, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.Words have supremacy. Their meaning forms insights that shape our beliefs, drive our conduct, and ultimately, create our ecosphere. Their power arises from our emotional responses when we read, speak, or hear them.The tongue is an entranceway of life for our body, soul and spirit. Not only is it designed to feed our bodies, it also has the power to nourish our soul and spirit. Read James 3: 9-10 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. Therefore, With the tongue we praise our Lord and father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God's likeness.How can I learn to control my tongue?1.Control your tongue by thinking first what you want to speak, but saying only what is suitable. Contemplate it, don't say it.2.Self-assurance and the advice, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."3.If you can't think of anything positive to say, then just smile graciously, go-ahead, and slightly change the subject.You maybe know the agony of regretting words you have spoken: words of annoyed, arrogance, dishonesty, greed, gossip, or ferocity. Although you can seek to restore bruised relationships through repentance and forgiveness, spoken words can never be retrieved.Ephesians 4:29 "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".Three Prayer points.1. Ask God for wisdom and guidance on how to control your tongue in your life.2. Ask God power to refrain your tongue from evils and your lips to speak wisdom.3. Ask God to help you to do good and pursue his guidance on how to seek peace and ensure it. |
