Reckless Words

“Lord, make my words as sweet as honey for tomorrow I may have to eat them.”                    Anonymous

Whoever guards his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from troubles.”  Proverbs 21:23
(NKJV)

“The words of the reckless pierce like swords,but the tongue of the wise brings healing.” Proverbs 12:18
(NIV)

After regrettable words leave our lips, they seem to hang frozen in the air for an eternity. Those within earshot share in our awkward moment as everyone thinks, “Did I/they really say that? Did I/they really say that Out Loud?” If only we could reel back in our careless words before they transform themselves into destructive wrecking balls! Continue reading “Reckless Words”

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS

Psalm 6

Dear Lord, we praise You for all that You do for us. You hear our prayers and deliver us from the storms that come against us. You go before us and You stand behind. You are our Provider and Protector. You redeem us from our enemies with healing and restoration… and we thank You for the blessings that are to come as we walk in obedience to You… in Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

Colossians 2:2-5

My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments. For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how disciplined you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS

Psalm 5

Give ear to my words, O Lord,
Consider my meditation.
Give heed to the voice of my cry,
My King and my God,
For to You I will pray.
My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord;
In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up.

For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness,
Nor shall evil dwell with You.
The boastful shall not stand in Your sight;
You hate all workers of iniquity.
You shall destroy those who speak falsehood;
The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy;
In fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple.
Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies;
Make Your way straight before my face.

For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;
Their inward part is destruction;
Their throat is an open tomb;
They flatter with their tongue.
10 Pronounce them guilty, O God!
Let them fall by their own counsels;
Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions,
For they have rebelled against You.

11 But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You;
Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them;
Let those also who love Your name
Be joyful in You.
12 For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous;
With favor You will surround him as with a shield.

In Jesus’ Name, we pray…

Amen. Amen. and Amen.
