The Power Of The Overcomer "The Tool Of A Tame Tounge"

The book of James says that are life is like a ship that althrough maybe being driven by fiearce wind is able to be turned around by the rudder which represents our tounge. We found out that we are the governor and its our responsibility to apply and appropriate pressure to that little member causing it to be bridled just like bits in the mouth of a hoarse. I've told people that the Lord said to me one time Brian "The best answer to pressure IS PRESSURE! The greatest way that we do that is the words of our mouth. We sqaw at the end of the last blog the few of many references found in the book of Proverbs that are words are like carriers and containers of the blessing or the curse. God said through the mouth of Moses Everyday the choice of blessing and cursing is set before us(Deut 30:19) The deciding vote is most often cast by the little member that boasts of great things. Today we need to get into taming the tounge. God said in and througth the mouth of James The tounge is a fire a world of iniquity so the tounge among are members that it defiles the whole body and sets on fire the COARSE OF NATURE(turns wheels on an axil sets things in motion) and is set on fires of Hell. Every beast of the field hath and has been TAMED BY MANKIND, BUT THE TOUNGE NO MAN CAN TAME(Jms 3:5-8) The Lord says through James that lions tigers and bears can be tamed easier than the tounge! The only thing that can do it is surrender to the written word and submission the the HolyGhost. Remember if we can control of our tounge we can our WHOLE LIFE! the bible gives us a number ways to do it. Nummer one PRAYER. We seen in an earlier blog that David prayed that the Lord would keep the door of his mouth, we must do the same thing. When we pray and ask we are placing a demand on his ability upon any inability in us. Number two, PURPOSE. We have to on purpose everyday desire our words to be good for the use of edifying. We are the ones that are in control of what we are saying. It dont matter how much the windmaybe trying to drive you in a direction. Your the sailor your like the pilot and its up to us to turn it! Notice James uses the phrase twice in just a few verses. TURN ABOUT!!! Things can be turned about, but we have to use our words and confessions the right way. However before we do that we have to purpose that only his words will come up out of our mouths. The centurian who understood authority came to Jesus asking him to heal his servant. Hes like im not worthy that you enter under my roof BUT SPEAK THE WORD ONLY and my servant shall be healed for IM A MAN UNDER AUTHORITY(Matt 8:8,9) whats he saying here? He understood the authority behind te words of Jesus! We have to keep them in our mouths as well! The bible declars that not one word of God falls to the ground VOID OF POWER! Isiah said that the word does not return umto him VOID but prospers to the place thats its been sent(Isiah 55:11) We are the senders. Is it prospering where we are sending. The Lord goes onto say in and through James that blessing and cursing cannot come from the same mouth just like sweet and bitter water cannot flow from the same spring. We must just asthe centurian understand the authority of what bwere saying. There is a spiritual substance released behind every word. Jesus told the the fellas who wanted to call down fire like Elijah consuming them by saying YOU DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT SPIRIT YE ARE OF(Luke 9:55) Our words can be just as Micah by the spirit prophesied by the SPIRIT OF THE BREAKER(Micah 2:13) Number three, POWER. How many y'all know that you are going to be different with power saw than a hand saw! Theres is going to be a whole lot more of caustiousness!!!!!!!!!!!!! They heal or hurt, they build or break, they encourage or discourage, they strengthen or weaken, they puify or pollute!!! So lets understand the power of them and think before we speak instead of speak and than think about what we said! The bible declares the righteous man STUDIES TO ANSWER(Prov 15:28) Prov 15:1 a SOFT answer TURNS AWAY WRATH, SWEETNESS OF THE LIPS INCREASE LEARNING(Prov 16:21) If we really want someone to hear us start with a positive and recognize the power behind what you are saying! God SAID let there be light and it came faster than 186,000 miles per second. We have that same creative power on the inside of us thats being released through words!!!
