RHAPSODY OF REALITIES **WORDS ARE SPIRITUAL ELEMENTS** Monday 21st March: Pastor Chris
Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things.
Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a
fire... (James 3:5-6).
There’s something inside your mouth that’s
so powerful; it’s your tongue. It’s given to you by God to form words;
words with which to control, create or recreate the circumstances of
your life. James 3:6 says the tongue is a fire; the power for any change
that you desire is in your tongue. Jesus said you shall have what you
say (Mark 11:23).
If you speak confusing words, the result is
that your life will be confusing, because you’re giving confusing
signals. Words are spiritual elements. They don’t die. That’s why Jesus
said, “But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak,
they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment” (Matthew 12:36).
One day, all your words will be shown to you by God, as to what they
built, what they created, the image of your life and the circumstances
of your life created by your words.
The most important thing in
your life is your words. Your words will decide the quality of your life
on earth. Your words will decide your relationship with God, your
relationship with human beings, and where you go eternally: heaven or
hell. No one else can determine the quality of your life. It’s all going
to come from your words.
For instance, when some people are
excited, they’d say, “If you continue this way, you’ll kill me!” Or some
others who say, “This troublesome child will kill me some day!” Or,
“Look at poor me.” Unfortunately, such people don’t realize the power
and importance of their words. Death and life are in the power of the
tongue (Proverbs 18:21).
You may say, “But they were only
joking.” It makes no difference. Read again, what Jesus said in Matthew
12:36. Moreover, in Mark 11:23, He didn’t say, “You shall have what you
say, when you mean them”; rather, He said, “You shall have what you
say.”
Train yourself to speak rightly. Proverbs 15:4 says, “A
wholesome tongue is a tree of life....” Your tongue is your own tree of
life; use it to chart your course for success and prosperity, and create
your victorious path in life.
CONFESSIONMy life is for the glory
of God, shaped in the direction of God’s perfect will! I reign and rule
over circumstances as I chart my course in success and prosperity, and
create my victorious path, with my wholesome tongue.

STUDY:Proverbs 13:3 He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he
that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.
Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
Proverbs 15:4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
