Teaching on the Tongue10/28/2006
By the words of My mouth as God life came into being. With the words of my mouth I call to you to be separate from the world. I also call you to watch what you create with the words of your mouth. Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking guile - It is stated in Psalms and Peter for its limits are far reaching. You carry within each of you the power of the tongue. That is power my children. If the enemy (who has no voice as you) can harness your words, the enemy can use those words to corrupt the world around you. Your words are your responsibility; I can only give you guidance for their direction. To start to take responsibility in what you say is a great thing in the Heavenlies. The words of the mouth bring life unto you and your loved ones with spoken prayers. You also bring life to yourself as your mouth speaks praises to your God for all you have been given. Words of tender love spoken to a spouse or to a child cause life to come to you. Kindness and forgiveness spoken to a friend or neighbor builds life for you and for the other you speak to. Truth, pure truth, upon your lips brings a benefit to the world for the breath of the Holy Spirit comes from your life when you speak truth and love into the atmosphere.
All things for building up are of God. Conversely all things that are for tearing down are of the evil one. When you are tempted to speak darkness and harshness to those around you first look to me to find the best way into the situation. My Spirit will lead you if you are humble enough to ask. Lives will be put into eternal judgment because of the things said; you must avoid this by purposing yourselves to make your tongue a tongue of life. Negativity and criticism, harshness and judgment, can bring ruin to that which I create. How many of you have escaped the harsh tongue of a mother? Your minds and Spirits are immediately bringing up memories of your pain. This must be discussed and brought top task in each of your lives. If the memories of some people can be changed by your knowledge of this epidemic we are victorious. Bring life with your tongue.
Discussion Questions
1.) How does the media and the political system use words?
2.) Where does a lie go when it has damaged another?
3.) Why do people retain more hurtful words and memories?
4.) What is the proportion of good words to cancel out bad ones?
5.) Why did I confound the tongues of men at the tower of Babel?
6.) How does a prayer tongue work?
The responsibility for your words is yours alone. I have given much to my children to create life; do not let the enemy tempt you into wrong speaking. When your souls are filled with pain the mouth can speak bitter and angry things. Heal the soul and restore the tongue. Christ and the Spirit of God heal all things find them.
