Our words hold a lot more power than we may realize. Proverbs
18:21 says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.” How we speak to others truly matters. We jumped into a new sermon series, What God Says About, applying God’s wisdom to everyday situations. In our everyday interactions with others, it can be easy to be flippant with our words—not realizing what we are truly saying until after we have said it. God is adamant on the fact that our words bring life and cause death. We should be mindful of how we speak to others, aiming to speak words of grace and encouragement; even speaking less and listening more. When we interact with our brothers and sisters in Christ, we should speak the truth and challenge one another. As we grow in Christ the Lord refines us, filtering out the destructive ways of the world and filling us with His wisdom. Join us in the next sermon of the series, What God Says About Words.
