TOPIC: LEARN TO CONTROL YOUR TONGUE 

TEXT: JAMES 1:26;3:2

KEY VERSE: PSALM 141:3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. 

Defilement of the tongue can come from multitude of ways. Talking, and talking, and talking. You want to jest, you want to joke, you want to say everything, dominating the conversation. The Bible says that, in a multitude of words there lacketh no sin. Even a fool, if he holdeth his tongue, shall be esteemed a man of wisdom. 

Hold yourself. Do not be forward in speaking. Do not speak overmuch. If you find an environment, even answering questions in the church, nobody is talking. You talk one, nobody is talking, you talk two and nobody is talking, you control yourself. Learn to speak a few words. It gives dignity to your personality. 

Control your mouth. The spirit of the prophet is subject to the prophet. With all the healing Jesus did, there was still a crippled man at the beautiful gate. That one will be for another time. So, learn to control your tongue. 

Isaac lied about Rebecca; she is not my wife but my sister, until truth was discovered. What about Miriam and Aaron? It is still the sin of the tongue on Moses. God said why were you not afraid to talk about my servant Moses, even his house, his marriage, his wife? Your tongue cannot keep quiet? Miriam, what is your problem? 

Did God not know Moses when he appointed him? Did God not know that he was married to an Ethiopian woman? Did God not know about the nature of his family when he picked him? But he picked him. Then why are you talking to earn yourself judgment? Why are you comparing Moses to yourself? Are you on the same level? The tongue! Miriam became leprous because of the tongue. 

See Ananias and Sapphira, who lied about what they brought to the Lord. Why are you lying? Did God tell you to bring everything? Why did you promise that you must bring everything? And now by your mouth you are condemned.

Thought for the day: Even if a fool holds his tongue, he shall be esteemed as wise

Song for the day: Give me grace to follow. Abundant grace to follow.

Bible reading for the day: Lamentations 3-5

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
