That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.
Beware: Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell. James 3:5-6
You are blessed! Receive it, possess it, speak your testimony to the glory of God!
Is My Tongue Soothing or Sharp?
Soothing – Soothing words heal. A quiet and gentle spirit is precious to God and doesn’t need to snap and yell.
“The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit” (Proverbs 15:4).
“A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger” (Proverbs 15:1).
“Through patience a ruler can be persuaded, and a gentle tongue can break a bone” (Proverbs 25:15).
“She opens her mouth in wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue” Proverbs 31:26).
“And the Lord’s bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition; if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth” (2 Timothy 2:24, 25).
When we abide in Christ, we stay calm and composed. In quietness and trust we find strength (Isaiah 30:15).
“But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them” (Matthew 15:18 NIV).
“You let your mouth say anything evil.Your tongue plans deceit.You sit and talk against your own brother. You slander your own mother’s son. When you did these things, I remained silent. That made you think I was like you. I will argue my point with you and lay it all out for you to see” (Psalms 50:19-21).
A Prayer for Power over the Tongue
Lord, I know my tongue often gets ahead of my mind and heart. I am quick to speak and I repent of the many thoughtless things I have spoken. I am sorry for words I have spoken in anger or in gossip. Please help me to see when I am about to speak without thinking and to check my heart. Help me be slow to speak. Help me Lord to be a person full of loving words, full of your Spirit, overflowing with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness and self control. Amen.
