“May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”Psalms 19:14 NLT
I am convicted that I must do a study on ‘the words of my mouth’. I have found 26 scriptures and will work through them this month. The Lord’s hand is upon my heart and my mouth. He is teaching me to ponder things in my heart more without reacting.
God demonstrated the power of His words. He wants us to follow His examples. Our words carry creative power. We can build up or tear down. He also wants me to cover others. If I have a problem with them then I should deal with them one on one, unless they refuse to listen. Then I can take someone else with me. If they finally don’t listen, then I can tell the church. Unfortunately we have it the other way around. We are quick to complain to others.
This year is a year of becoming more Christlike, watching my words and guarding my heart. Amen!
