REFERENCE:
But no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. James 3:8-10
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to use your tongue to speak blessings and not curses among you. Think about the results and benefits if you chose one or the other.
REFERENCE:
Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me!
Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. Psalms 25:20
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to seek shelter and refuge in the Lord and not the natural flesh itself.
REFERENCE:
For the LORD gives wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. Proverbs 2:6
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to choose the wisdom of the Lord because it breathes life to the soul.
REFERENCE:
So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. Romans 10:17
THOUGHTS:
I’m challenging you today to hear only faith and not fear. Because fearing what is ahead of us rather than what is behind us is more practical and innate. For instance, if you don’t apply pressure, an automobile won’t move or accelerate.
REFERENCE:
Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.
Worship the LORD with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
Know that the LORD is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations. Psalms 100:1-5
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to be grateful for the one gift that endures. For Jesus Christ, the true present is always present.
REFERENCE:
My tongue will proclaim your righteousness,
your praises all day long. Psalms 35:28
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to use your tongue to build the kingdom with praise and divine purpose. What good is it to have a viable asset and make no use of it.
REFERENCE:
Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit,
for anger resides in the lap of fools. Ecclesiastes 7:9
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to refrain from malice, anger and hate. Instead, let the love of the Lord saturate and consume your heart always.
REFERENCE:
Guard my life and rescue me;
do not let me be put to shame,
for I take refuge in you. Psalms 25:20
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to be rescued from yourself first. We can get in our own way and get ahead of His plan so easily. Let Him do the work that He is equipped and able to do above what anyone else can.
REFERENCE:
Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. 1 Corinthians 16:13
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to follow the commands of the Lord pertaining to strength and courage. It is easier to take the path that is familiar rather than the one that is not.
REFERENCE:
LORD, the God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven above or on earth below—you who keep your covenant of love with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way. 1Kings 8:23
THOUGHTS:
Today, I challenge you to look to the author and finisher of our life and soul. He is the beginning and end of all things. Still to this day, there is no one on earth that compares to Him.
