DAILY DEVOTIONAL COMPANION

The Guiding Voice

Pastor Obinna Michael 

 DON’T CUT YOUR LIFE SHORT BY YOUR WORDS.

Proverbs 18:4 (KJV)..... The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, And the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook. 

Do you know that we survive by what we say and not what we do? I know someone will try to argue this statement or will like to have a debate about it. But the truth is this: your life goes in the direction of your words and not your works.

A lot of believers are busy fighting the devil for killing people around them without knowing this truth. You can cut short your life by your wrong speakings.

Proverbs 18:21 (KJV)..... .Death and life are in the power of the tongue: And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof . 

The fruit thereof are the produce from your speaking. Meaning that in life, you shall have what you SAY.

1 Peter 3:10 (KJV)..... For He that will love life, And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips that they speak no guile.

What is guile? It is a word of deceit and subtlety. Words that do not correspond with the truth of God's words. Don’t say things you don't want to see in your life. Don’t say things that give licence to the devil to wreak havoc in your life. Be sure to defend what you say so that if you see any fruits different from what you sowed, you can uproot them. Amen.

Prayer:

I speak life, peace, progress over my life, my family, children and over the work of my life. I harvest only good things and things meant for the glory of God. Amen.

Bible Reference: Psalm 32:1-2, Psalm 34:1-13.

Wisdom Capsule:

Proverbs 2:14 (MSG).....These losers who make a game of evil and throw parties to celebrate perversity.
