Proverbs 10:14-21

Do you know that your words are an expression of your heart? They can be used as a picture of yourself. You will notice that a lot of the time you have the privilege of conversing with people, something just keeps pushing you to continue talking until you overdo it. Then you’ll begin to say what you don't mean to say. Many a time, the volume of words that come out of our mouths is not what we have planned for or decided, but because we have not learned to caution our lips, which is an act of discipline. Such excessive words can later become instruments of temptation in the near future. 

If you want to be wise and your words to be of comfort and benefit to others, then you will need to learn to restrain your lips. You can do it by consciously cautioning your self whenever you are speaking; a wise man doesn’t speak all the time. When he does, wisdom is discovered in his speech. 

It is not good to hide your feelings, but watch your words. Do not sin and destroy others (Ephisians 4:24). Many don’t bother about what comes out of their mouth; some speak corrupt words. Some copy jesters and lose their integrity before people. Little did they know that what they’re saying determines many things about their life and future. Why should we put up corrupt speech which may mar our image (Colossians 4:6)?. Let your speech always be with grace and seasoned with salt that you may know how to answer each one. By this you will save yourself and be of blessing to people around you. 

Prayer: Lord, help me to always keep my mouth in wisdom

“YOUR WORDS REVEAL YOUR WORTH”.

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
