The bible tells us that life and death are in the power of
the tongue. God Himself spoke the worlds into existence by the creative power
of words. Think about that for a moment. You can bless your future with your
words, or you can curse it.
There are many influences over our words. In the heat of the
moment, we can let our emotions tell us what to say. We can listen to what
others say and allow their opinions and ideas to influence our words. We can
even be influenced by what we watch on TV, the internet or read in the news.
Proverbs 16:23 tells us that a wise person does, “The heart
of the wise teaches their mouth, and adds learning to their lips.” As a
believer, when you listen to your heart, you are allowing the Spirit of God to
influence your words.
Today, listen to your heart. Take time to be still and quiet
before your loving, heavenly Parent. Allow Him to teach you what to say. As you
submit your words and ways to Him, He will direct your path and help you
achieve success in every area of your life!
