Let your tongue be an instrument of healing, not one that leaves wounds in a soul.

Wounds take time to heal, we can be a blessing with healing words, or we can be unloving and we can leave wounds in a persons soul.

 Words can really hurt if they are meant to be jabs, and unkind.

 The enemy will use negative feelings to wound others with our words, at the expense of peace and love. 

YIELD  YOUR TONGUE TO THE HOLY SPIRIT!!

 1 John 3:10
In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest;  Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.

 We all say the wrong things at times, but forgive and move on. Love covers a multitude of sin.

 Love can only be expressed in our actions, it is never just what we say. 

 Words come easy,  but commitment to love takes a move on our part. 

 You must deny yourself, and let God's love move in our life.

 Romans 12:9-10
Let love be without hypocrisy, Abhor what is evil, Cling to what is good. 
Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfast in prayer.

 Beloved, we can speak life or death with that tongue of ours. Make certain that you do not react and say something that you will reap later. 

 Because when our tongue says a cruel thing, we do reap what we sow. It will come back to us.

 Like the old saying goes, I must learn to bite my tongue. 

 James 3:6 tells us, our tongue is a world of iniquity, it will defile the whole body.

 James 3:13-18
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in meekness and wisdom. 
But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.  

 This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic.  

 For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing will be there. 
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without hypocrisy.
Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

 Beloved, be a peace maker, show your Fathers love, we can be firm, yet kind. STAND FOR TRUTH IN LOVE.

 GUARD YOUR WORDS, speak life, not death!!

 God bless your day
Jesus loves you

 Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
