Why do you boast of evil, you mighty man? Why do you boast all day long, you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God? Your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor, you who practice deceit. You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth. You love every harmful word. O you deceitful tongue. (Psalm 52:1-4). God does not want us to be deceitful. He does not want us to plot evil against others. Each time we love evil rather than good, we GRIEVE the Holy Spirit. God does not want us to have a deceitful tongue. He doesn't want us to speak harmful words. What do we speak then as Christians? We speak words which heal, build, edify, encourage, strengthen, comfort; words which are full of faith; words which gives grace to those who hear them. God is very concerned about the words that the we speak: The Bible says this in Mathew 12:36-37: But I tell you that men will have to give an account on the day of judgement for every  CARELESS word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, & by your words you will be condemned. Here you are. Watch what you say & the words that you use. You may miss Heaven through speaking carelessly.  Prayer: Father, faith must be confessed.  Our faith can only go as HIGH as the level of our confession. Help us to speak the truth in love & in humility. Help us to speak faith filled words. To have them, give us the grace to have a Bible reading & meditation of the Word culture. Help us to apply the meditated portion of the Word to our lives daily. Thank you for hearing & answering my prayer. As we have prayed, put your angels to action. Let them minister to our needs. In Jesus mighty name we pray & believe, Amen. Jesus, you are Lord of life & Lord of all.  Immanuel: God with us.
