“LET YOUR WORDS BENEFIT & BLESS THE HEARERS!”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“Let no harmful language come from your mouth, only good words that are helpful in meeting the need, words that will benefit those who hear them.” (Ephesians 4:29)

Let no foul or polluting language, nor evil word nor unwholesome or worthless talk ever come out of your mouth, but only such speech as is good and beneficial to the spiritual progress of others, as is fitting to the need and the occasion, that it may be a blessing and give grace, God’s favour to those who hear it.

Have you seen a dam with broken walls?
Water will be gushing out and nothing can hold it back. That is exactly how your tongue is sometimes.

Nothing can hold back the flood of words: excessive talking, vain babblings, foul words, destructive gossip, slander, fault finding and lies, etc.

Have you ever tried to count the number of words that you speak in a day? You readily give expression to whatever comes to your mind because you do not have any control over yourself.

Most of the time you do not restrain the expression of thoughts into words and keep your mouth shut. Then later on you are filled with regret.

Commit your life, thoughts and words to the Lord Jesus Christ. Be constantly renewed in your mind that He may be glorified in your life. A close walk with Him every day will make you more like Him in all your words, works and ways.

If anyone thinks himself to be religious and piously observant of the external duties of his faith and does not bridle his tongue but deludes his own heart, this person’s religious service is worthless futile and barren.

BE CAREFUL OF YOUR WORDS BECAUSE AN UNTAMED TONGUE DESTROYS GOOD RELATIONSHIPS.

Sabbath Shalom and good morning.
