"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits." - Proverbs 18:31 (ESV)
This scripture clearly says that either death or life can come from the words we speak. It is very important to control the words coming out of our mouths, and make sure we do it the right way.
Some people try to control their mouths but do nothing about their thoughts. This can be likened to weeding. Unless the root is dug up, the weed always comes back. It is hard to control your mouth unless you first learn to control your mind.
You can choose life-generating thoughts by hearing, reading, thinking and talking about God and His Truth. When you fill your mind with good, positive, powerful and life-giving thoughts from God, good, positive, powerful and life-giving words will naturally follow. Remember: What's inside will always find its way out.
Prayer Starter: Holy Spirit, I want to change my thoughts so that I can speak life-giving words. Help me fill my thoughts with Your Truth so that my words will reflect You.
