According to
James, the tongue is a tiny rudder that steers the whole vessel. And it certainly is the truth! Oh, Soldier of the Cross! Weigh each word. It is possible, and it can become a habit. If you only understood how words will be revealed in heaven, you would be alarmed enough to reform. The tongue is an offending member in all of us, but the problem is particularly dangerous in women because they want to control the behavior and reactions of others in a most unhealthy manner. When the Holy Spirit fills a believer, He begins to develop a sensitivity that increases throughout a lifetime. If He is allowed, He can and will teach the Christian to hear each word before it is uttered, except in cases where there is an anointing and the speaker speaks words given spontaneously by the Lord. His name is The Word. That has to weigh heavily if favor of words being valuable. Please, please, Soldier. Do not squander this precious treasure. |
