“Does
your tongue need healing?” The answer is YES – daily, every hour, minute and
second. Our words are like a ‘bomb’ that either explodes into wonderful creations or chaotic
ciaos. Tongue, which refers to our speech, is the entrance of life and death.
It is imperative to know how it may be healed; heal and live; or leave and die.
Derek
Prince (not Joseph Prince!) writes; ‘Let me begin by pointing out something
very significant about the way in which the Creator designed the human head.
Every one of us has seven openings
in our head, the number in Scripture which often denotes completeness. We have
three pairs of openings: two eyes, two ears, and two nostrils. But the Creator
restricted the seventh opening to one,
the mouth.
I
have often asked people, ‘How many of you wish you had more than one mouth?’
But I have never met anyone who did. Most of us have all we can do to use mouth
properly. This one opening causes us more problems than all the other six
together.’
He
continue, ‘If you take a Bible concordance and look up all the words related to
that one opening such as “mouth,” “tongue,” “lips,” “speech,” “words,” and so
on, you will be amazed how much the Bible has to say about this subject, and it
is with good reason. There are no areas in our personality more directly
related to our total well-being than the mouth and tongue.’
The
ancient writer of the Psalms 34 aware of this matter earlier than we all by
composed a God-inspired Psalms like this:
“Come,
my children, listen to me;
I
will teach you the fear of the LORD.
Whoever
of you loves life and desire to see many good days,
keep
your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies.”
(34:11-13NIV)
Question:
Does your tongue need healing? Yes, a resounding YES! “He who guards his mouth
and his tongue keeps himself from calamity.” (Proverbs 21:23NIV) Pray like
this;
Lord
Jesus, help me to guard my mouth and tongue. Help me to control it and to use
it for your glory. Guard my heart from uttering words of annoying, insulting,
demeaning and useless - rather help me to use it to encourage, inspire and comfort others. Lord, help me, I surrender. Amen.
THINK
BIG. START SMALL. GO DEEP.
