THEME: Your Tongue And You. I.
MEMORY VERSE:
“Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.”
Ephesians 4:29.
TODAY’S TEXT:
James 3:2-3.
“For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body. Behold, we put bits in the horses’ mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
There are many ways to tell of a man or a woman maturity, background, exposure, believe, pedigree and wisdom. One of which is his or her speech, do know that what comes out of a man’s mouth speak a great deal about him.
Meanwhile, our today’s text gives a hint on who a perfect man or woman is saying: _” *If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man,* and able also to bridle the whole body.”_ This connotes that, ability to mind our speech is a step in being perfect.
However, Apostle Paul through our memory verse, admonish us as followers of Christ, to ensure that no corrupt communication proceed out of our mouths, but good words for the edification of souls and to minister grace unto the listener.
Finally, how often do you consciously examine what comes out of your mouth? Does it edify lives, minister grace to the hearer or glorified God? Don’t forget that, what comes out of your mouth, says a lot about you. Therefore, consciously examine your heart on daily basis, for out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks (Mathew 12:34).
God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
My tongue will not betray be. I will speak to edify and minister grace to the glory of God.
PRAYER POINT:
Father in heaven, help me to be perfect in my words. Let my words, oh Lord, be seasoned with grace, peace and mercy, that your Holy name be glorified wherever I find myself in Jesus name. Amen.
Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.
