The Lord has warned each one of us to be careful what we say, because by our words we will be justified and by our words we will be condemned. Every man will have to give an account for every word.The words one would be justified is comforting,encouraging words,words that are pure,words that unite and inspire and also helpful words.The words by which we are in danger of being condemned are hurtful words,discouraging words,words that bring sadness,inappropriate words,words that isolate,words that tell lies and idle words.You can tell a lot about an individual by the words they speak.Jesus tells us.”For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.”(Matthew 12:34). In the book of Proverbs the eighteen chapter and verse twenty one we read”Death and life are in the power of the tongue.We ought to understand that a gun is bad-it kills in the same breath words can also kill.According to the word of God there are some sins of the tongue that God does not like, they are the lying,flattering,proud,overused,swift,backbiting,talebearing,cursing,piercing and the silent tongue.God is saying to us to us today that we need to get rid of these tongues. When we practice using these tongues we are hurting Jesus, so please repent and confess. We must replace bad words to the good ones, we should pray to God,praise God,read God’s word,Sing,bless,comfort,encourage and help others. I Pray that we will follow God’s word and obey him today.-Elder Micheal Stewart
