 Shut Your Mouth – Do Your Job

Let your words give grace to those who listen. – Ephesians 4:29

We will be held accountable for every careless word. The words can acquit you or condemn you. – Matthew 12:36-37

Listening to and following the Word of God will make us better if we allow it to do so. Believe in the Word of God – allow it to have power in your life. Your spiritual person must be bigger than your natural person.

Break the Curse

Jesus never reacted to lies and slander; he only responded to truth. A gentle answer turns away wrath and fury. Always declare words of truth and love. Sow truth with the words you allow to come out of your mouth, and you will reap love, wisdom and redemption.
