Stick out your tongue and say, "AH!"

Wednesday - 8/15 - James 3:1-12

What is the spiritual condition of your tongue? I think you know what I mean by this, right?

Has one word, or one statement started a "forest fire" of trouble in your life or in the lives of others? Doesn't it amaze you? One statement and the fire is blazing.

Why do you think James says in James 3:6 "It corrupts the whole person."?

We know why God wants our words to be godly, but do we understand the passion Satan has to see our words being destructive and harmful. James says our tongues can be set on fire by hell itself. Satan--give him credit here--is a great strategist. He knows how powerful words are.

With the words you've used last week have you played into this strategy?

Stick out your tongue and say, "Ah!"

Read James 3:13-18 for next Sunday
