Description
The Bible says more, by far, about “words spoken and heard” than any other topic. How we speak is near and dear to the heart of God. He has made us in His image and likeness by both creation and the new birth. Our mouths, lips and tongues can and should express that likeness to God more than any other member of our physical body. That is the design and desire of God.
For God’s children to sound like Him is not only possible through God, but is expected by Him. Every person, including believers, will give account for every idle, careless word spoken. That is a stern warning from Jesus Himself. These idle words do not connect with the eighty plus forms of godly speech presented in this book. Those idle words displace godly speech and work against the plan and will of God. That is one of the reasons why those words are so offensive to God.
The kingdom of God is “word activated”. We are saved by our words, not our works. We are forgiven and cleansed by our words. Our life course is according to the words we speak, whether good or bad. How much power do our words have? God tells us that the power of death and life are in the tongue. That is no exaggeration. Nor are the thirty one principles of Godly speech presented in this book.
Our lives, those of our spouses and children, our brothers and sisters in Christ, and those of every other person God sends to us demand that we use this power of life in leading them to a closer walk with God. Jesus said “the mouth always speaks of that which fills the heart.” There is a powerful heart and mouth connection.
