daily prayer

    Good morning!  How are we faithing? Man, I've heard some ugly speech lately. Lies, slander, anger, innuendo, cussing, speaking curses on others, gossip, idle speculation for the previous reasons and on it goes. It does not always surprise me but when it's heard in the body of believers it tosses one heck of a curve. We all are guilty from time to time but man, we have to be in control of our tongue regardless of our emotional state. It flat doesn't matter what has happened we must not lash out like the world. I am guilty of calling someone an idiot who drive different than myself. Can you relate? I am attempting to turn that around to bless them instead of calling them names. I don't know where or what is happening in their life so how dare I call them an idiot? Likewise we all must remember who we are and that we are not people who should be captive of our tongues. You know, what is in our hearts is what comes out our mouths so with that said, I need a change of heart, how about you?




Mat 5:21-22
  Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: but I say unto you, that every one who is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council; and whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of the hell of fire.

Mat 12:36  

And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 

Heavenly Father,

  Forgive us our trespasses. Lord, our tongues need taming and we need strength and self control to achieve that goal. Help us with wisdom and your eyes to see the heart of others. Let our own desires and emotions lead but rather your wisdom and strength. In Jesus name, amen
