Have you ever said something you wish you could take back? I'm sure you have. The Bible tells us that life and death are in the power of the tongue. There's no neutral ground. We are either sowing seeds of life and productivity with our words, or we are sowing seeds of ruin and destruction. Scripture also says that when we guard our mouth, we keep our life. That's because our words determine the direction of our lives, and wrong words can get us off course very quickly.
Today, as we come to the end of the first month of a new year, it's a good day to take inventory of your words and make the decision to sow only good seeds with your mouth. Sow seeds of life by speaking God's Word over yourself and those around you. Make the decision today that your words will bring glory and honour to God as you guard your mouth and keep your life focused and positive!
"He who guards his mouth keeps his life, but he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin." (Proverbs 13:3, AMP).
Let's Pray
Yahweh, thank You for Your Word that I can use to speak into my life. Father, I give You my every thought, word and action. Holy Spirit, please help me to live a life pleasing to You in every way. God, help me to guard my mouth and keep my life moving forward in a godly direction and know that the wrong words spoken can lead to ruin. In Christ's Name! Amen.
