The Words of Our Mouth

God takes our words very seriously, and so should we. Jesus said, “The mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart” (Matthew. 12:34). Therefore, what we need is a heart transformation, and the only one who can do that is God.

The expression, “actions speak louder than words” comes to mind. Dear Father, I desire to honor you. Show me the areas of my life where my words and actions do not match. Thank you for your Spirit’s presence in my life that gives me the strength to live consistent with your word. Amen.
