THE POWER OF THE TONGUE
To All those I Whom I love
Proverbs 18:21
Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
To all my FaceBook Family & Firends:
I am NOT going anywhere...
I will still be checking in and praying, following along to keep up with important updates with so many of my family and friends, whom without, this, (FB) I might not have had contact with, for which I am so grateful ♥
I will however, be being quiet for a while, which I think is the best way to put it... after some time in prayer the other day, the LORD, I believe, spoke to my heart through some verses one of which I started with above. If you want to read more info on why and see a short video clip of why... there is a video below <3
FORWORD:
During my time of prayer and meditation this morning, I was thinking about how important our words are. After a short time of looking for a picture of someone covering their mouths, I decided to video myself speaking the WORD out loud COVERING MY OWN MOUTH, because the WORD does have so much power, And because I am a visual learner.
I though for the sake of this video I would also cover my mouth to show that our mouths/tongues/lips, are so important... and as it is written, good and bad water does not flow from the same fountain.
SOUND DETAIL IN VIDEO CLIP ~ONE MORE very important detail: I have at this point in my life, NO CONTROL OF MY VOCAL CHORDS, so, in light of this factor, you might want to turn up the volume on your laptop or put a headset on to hear it better (for me that helps with the volume... if you choose to read along with, or just listen, to my video taping... my voice is very soft. If you listen closely you shouldn't have a problem if your laptop volume is good, mine is not, it should be a problem.
Lastly, you might want to make the print larger for easier viewing on your laptop or device. (that can be done on most devices. I Know on my PC I just Click the CTRL & + sign at the same time to enlarge print, FYI <3
AND SO WE BEGIN:
THE POWER OF THE TONGUE

Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
Proverbs 10:19
19 When there are many words, sin is unavoidable,
but the one who controls his lips is wise.
Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
Psalm 34:13
Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit.
Psalm 35:28
And my tongue shall talk of Your righteousness,
rightness, and justice, and of [my reasons for] Your praise all the day long.
James 1:19
19Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry. Amplified Bible (AMP)
James 1:26
If anyone thinks himself to be religious (piously observant of the external duties of his faith) and does not bridle his tongue but deludes his own heart, this person's religious service is worthless (futile, barren). Amplified Bible (AMP)
James 1:19

Even so the tongue is a little member, and it can boast of great things.
See how much wood or how great a forest a tiny spark can set ablaze!
James 3:6
And the tongue is a fire. [The tongue is a] world of wickedness set among our members, contaminating and depraving the whole body and setting on fire the wheel of birth (the cycle of man's nature), being itself ignited by hell (Gehenna).
James 3:8
But the human tongue can be tamed by no man. It is a restless (undisciplined, irreconcilable) evil, full of deadly poison. Amplified Bible (AMP)
James 3:6

James 3:8
But the human tongue can be tamed by no man. It is a restless (undisciplined, irreconcilable) evil, full of deadly poison. Amplified Bible (AMP)
Never return evil for evil or insult for insult (scolding, tongue-lashing, berating), but on the contrary blessing [praying for their welfare, happiness, and protection, and truly pitying and loving them]. For know that to this you have been called, that you may yourselves inherit a blessing [from God--that you may obtain a blessing as heirs, bringing welfare and happiness and protection]. Amplified Bible (AMP)
1 Peter 3:10
For let him who wants to enjoy life and see good days [good--whether apparent or not] keep his tongue free from evil and his lips from guile (treachery, deceit). Amplified Bible (AMP)
Philippians 2:11
And every tongue [ frankly and openly] confess and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Amplified Bible (AMP)
Psalm 30:12
To the end that my tongue and my heart and everything glorious within me may sing praise to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever. <3 Thank you for visiting my blog. <3
I hope you enjoyed this... I WILL be working on these things, myself. My prayer is that all who have heard this have ears to hear, as it is written....
My apollogies for any mistakes or pauses in the video taping as this is my first attempt trying to do this; and anyone who really knows me, knows that I love to write and talk one on one, but my preference is to stay in the background
Blessings,
Sz
PS (There is a reason in case you missed the explanation, for me covering my mouth during this video ; it is because I believe that is what the LORD told me to do... to be effective in this video. )
