We must bridle our tongue to our own body.
when your life is not going just right, examine your tongue and think about
what you are saying. Does it bless you or curse you?
If you want success stop claiming defeat by the
words you speak.
James 3:3 says: a bit in the horses mouth can
control the whole horse, a small rutter can control the whole ship. The
mouth controls the strength of the whole body.
When you speak weakness you will be weak, and when
you speak strength you will be strong. When you have strength, you will
have good direction.
The storm cannot catch you when you speak and do the
right thing. But, if you have loose lips and speak the wrong things, it
just may not go very well.
As you go, the Lord will show you what to say.
So yield your mouth to the Lord. Pray everyday that God will guard your
mouth, so you will not sin with your mouth. For out of the heart the
mouth speaks. Choose your words wisely.
