Good Words

24 August 2012    

John 1:1-3 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God; all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made.

In my opinion one of the reasons I believe that I am made in the image of God my Creator Father, is that I have a voice and a language I speak. All other parts of creation may have a voice but it cannot speak. My God speaks and communicates with words and He is the Word, all of creation knows and hears His voice.

So when we speak, we should speak words with careful thought, rather to praise than condemn, to love rather than hate, to be positive rather than negative, for it is by our words that others judge us. Idols in our lives cannot speak, yet they are able to control how we speak and of what we speak. If we have the idol of money then all we speak about is money, how much we have or how much we won, if our idol is our work, then that is all we speak about and so on. In the same way our problems become our idols and these dominate our thinking, rather than us bringing our problems to God and to speak to Him about them.

Be encouraged today to be mindful of your words.
 
David

Point to ponder: Our words tell others about us.

Question to consider: How do you speak?

  1. A gift from the wilderness Rev 12:6…truth:

    God will not put any child created in his image no matter what their sins or religion into a hell fire. It never entered God’s heart or mind to ever do such a thing Jer 7:31, Jer 19:5.

    I would like to invite you to read http://thegoodtale.blogspot.com where the true word John 1:1 is delivered Rev 12 and proven. Those who in their pride of righteousness refuse to hear Acts 3:22-23 what God has commanded me to write cannot turn their hearts to ALL the children of God Luke 1:17. God has all power.
