We have the power to point someone to the gates of heaven, or……..to the pit of hell, by the words we speak. Which will we choose today and everyday? I pray by the transformation of our heart, that then proceeds out of our mouth, we will choose the former. Lord, let us be mindful daily, of the words that proceed from our mouth. I know I need it!

And how should we speak?

So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5:17-21‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

We are not merely to hear Gods word, but to actively pursue doing it. We’ve missed the point, if we quietly absorb his words, and not put them in action. Is there anything today, that you need to take action on what God is telling you?

The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭6:45‬‬

Change my heart Oh Lord, that what comes out of my mouth, reflects a true transformation taking place for good, in this sinful natured body. May your Holy Spirit, transform this humble servant, for good, and not evil.

The fear if the Lord, is the beginning of Wisdom. That initial fear of what we deserve, turns into devotion for what we didn’t get. Our God is truly an awesome God.

Great and mighty, are your works Oh Lord. It is you who hold all things together. It is you who created the foundations of the earth. It is you who hold the stars in place and keep the oceans from covering the whole earth. Most wonderful, is that you love us, in spite of our imperfect ways, yet Jesus made us whole. You call us adopted sons and daughters. In all these troubled times, we are truly blessed.

Our slate is wiped clean, there is no memories of wrongs committed, we are free from the bondage of sin, our canvas is empty to start new! Jesus has taken the judgement off our backs for the wrongs done. Do we Believe this? Then let’s start this year with hope, for a new tomorrow, both now, and for all eternity. God is still on the Throne.

God…….never makes a promise he does not keep.

Moisture from heaven invariably accomplishes its intended purpose in helping meet human physical needs. The Word of God will likewise produce its intended results in fulfilling God’s spiritual purposes, especially the establishment of the Davidic kingdom on earth (vv. 1– 5 ). (Taken fro the John MacArthur Study Bible)

So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:11 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/isa.55.11/30270

Our senses, can be powerful tools of encouragement that lead to life, or dangerous weapons, that could possibly send someone to the pit of Tell. How will we use them today. May God’s Grace, point us in the right direction today!
