Watch Your Mouth

Scripture Of The Day
A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. - Proverbs 18:7
By Cheryl Henderson (Excerpts from Kenneth Copeland)
We have what we say. As believers, we recognize that this is a vital biblical truth. We can see it in Mark 11:23, Matthew 21:21, James 3:2, and many other verses. Yet we often let it slip.
We allow ourselves to begin talking like the world instead of talking the Word. And eventually we get what we've been asking for—a big mess. If that's happened to you, remember, whatever you have in your life is a product of what you've been saying. To change what you have, you must change what's coming out of your mouth. To head your life in a different direction—from death to life, sickness to health, failure to success—you must take charge of your words.
Easier said than done, right? Here are a few steps that can help. First, realize that it can't be done just in the natural. This is a spiritual law, so it must be handled with spiritual power. It takes God's wisdom from above. God's Word is His wisdom (Proverbs 2:6). He also said His words are spirit and life. That means it takes God's words to tame our tongues.
Second, repent before God for ever allowing your tongue to be used by anyone except the Holy Spirit. Then give Jesus your tongue. Be determined to speak His words of love, faith, joy, peace, and grace. Words of faith stop the fiery darts of hell.
The third thing to do is what Jesus said in Mark 4:24: Take heed, or listen, to what you hear. Listen to yourself! Think, do I want what I just said to come to pass? If the answer is no, then stop and correct yourself right then. Replace those negative words with praise (Ephesians 5:4).
I often pray for God to set a watch over my mouth. I desire to speak life, not fear, anxiety, or any other negative thing. Remember, there’s a miracle in your mouth!
