Power of the Tongue

Proverbs 18:21 - "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."

There is an abundance of power in the tongue. The tongue can forge relationships, or it can be the force behind a military action. For good and for bad, the tongue can be a weapon for mighty things.

Let us use our weapons for Christ. Let us guard our tongues and only use words of encouragement to lift others up. We shouldn't use words to tear down. Those are words of Satan and not of God. When we tear down others our weapons are firing from the enemies camp.

So let us not do the work of the Devil. Let the power that resides in our tongue be the power of life and not death. For all that can hear let them hear of the wonders and glory of the Lord.
