WHAT WE SAY

-
James 3:10
Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

Do you cause a lot of pain with your mouth, and with this current media era, do you cause pain with your write ups?

Time to revisit your inside.

Do you use curse words?

Matthew 12:36
But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

There is a trend all over the world where people have become accustomed to curse words and evil speakings. You could get so used to it that you do not know when you use them they just come out. We must remember that our words are the reflection of what we have in our inside:

Luke 6:45
 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

Our conscience must never be smeared with hot iron. We must know when we should speak and when we ought to be silent.  Not every slang is meant for the believer to use. NO!

Proverbs 4:24
 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

We must not allow this cankerworm eat into our lives and the lives of those who are under us.

As Parents we have more work to do, let our children be taught to speak right, curse words are not for us. We should teach our children to speak to edify.

Proverbs 21:23
Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.

We ought to know that the source of these curse words include, peer groups and movies. Where are our children when we are not with them (physically and virtually).

We must not fall into these traps neither should we allow others under our care be trapped in this bondage.

Jesus said:

Matthew 5:22(NLT)
But I say, if you are even angry with someone, you are subject to judgment! If you call someone an idiot, you are in danger of being brought before the court. And if you curse someone, you are in danger of the fires of hell.

I see us speaking right and I see us leading many to do so.

Train your lips:
Proverbs 15:28
The heart of the righteous studies how to answer, but the mouth of the wicked pours forth evil.

We are the blessed. We speak as such.

Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
