Watch Your LanguageKenneth Copeland

In a multitude of words transgression is not lacking, but he who
restrains
his lips is prudent.

- Proverbs 10:19

We believers need to start watching our language! We need to quit
throwing
words around like they weren't important and start using them like our
lives
depended on it--because, according to the Word of God, they do! (Prov.
18:21).

Too many of us have what Proverbs 19:1 calls a perverted mouth. Having a
perverted mouth means more than lying and using profanity. It means having
a
disobedient mouth. It means saying things that are out of line with the
Word
of God.

All of us have done that at one time or another. We'll say, for instance,
that we're believing God for our healing and then we'll turn right around
to
someone and make a statement like, "This pain is about to kill me!"

That's perverted! It's backwards from what God's Word says.

"Oh well, Brother Copeland, I know I said that, but it's not really what
I
meant."

Listen, the world of the spirit doesn't operate on what you mean. It
operates on what you say. Mark 11:23 tells us that "whosoever shall say
unto
this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall
not
doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith
shall
come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith."

Take note. That verse didn't say you shall have whatsoever you mean. It
says
you'll have what you say. It's what you say that counts.

Now, I'm not suggesting you should be tied up in knots all the time
worrying
about what your next phrase might be. Just use the wisdom God has given
you.
Train your mouth to be obedient to His Word. Then, when you need it most,
you'll find that Word dwelling richly in you.
