What Have You Been Saying?Tuesday, February 2, 2016

To master your life you have to master your mouth. Read this powerful statement in Proverbs 18:21 (AMP):

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life].”

Galatians 6:7 tells us that we reap what we sow. That goes for our words as well as our actions. In other words, we should think of our words as seeds – seeds that are going to bring forth either life or death, depending on what we’re saying. That’s a sobering thought, isn’t it? It should make us want to do an immediate checkup on ourselves and start taking our words much seriously.

Think for a moment: What have you been saying about your life today? What have you been saying about your family? Your business? Your employees? Your customers? Are you speaking positive things or negative things? Are your words life or death?

The good news is that even if you’ve sown some bad seeds in the past, today’s a new day. You can start sowing new seeds – seeds of life – and begin expecting a new harvest in the days ahead!
