Repent And Refrain From Speaking Idle Words by REDH2: 12:36am On May 14, 2021
Good morning Beloved

Peace be unto you in the name of our Lord Jesus

Repent and refrain from speaking idle words

Matthew 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
12:37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

Beloved, the words you speak is a reflection of the state of your heart. As a follower of Christ every word you speak is meant to
- Please the Lord your GOD and be a source of worship to Him
- Bring men closer to GOD
- Express the Love of Christ

Beloved, how then do you bring forth idle words and yet you claim to a follower of Christ Jesus? Are you really following Him? If truly you follow Him then you will speak like He speaks.

James 3:10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
3:11 Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?

The same mouth you use to sing praises to GOD wherever you find yourself particularly in the church is the same mouth you use to curse, to swear, to speak evil words, to gossip, to speak vulgar words, Beloved this ought not to be so. Refrain and repent of speaking idle words. Be disciplined, put your mouth under subjection.

Let the words you speak be of grace, let the words you speak be one that edifies, encourages and strengthen others not words that cause division among others, not words of hatred, not words of curses, not the words of the people of the world. You have been called out of darkness into the light, therefore let your words reflect Christ Jesus and not the world.

Let your words be sanctified and pure not words that are immoral.

Colossians 4:6a Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt...

Beloved, you need to repent of idle speakings and take concious effort to sanctify and renew your heart consistently with the Word of GOD, and be not conform to the world. Be intentional and cease from those worldly music, comedy, movies and conversations, all these which you give your heart to will proceed from your mouth conciously or unconsciously, therefore give heed to the Word and forsake the things of the world which edifieth not.

Beloved, harken to the Word of GOD today and repent and refrain from idle speakings, ask the Lord to cleanse you from all idle speakings by blood of the Lord Jesus and take concious effort to speak as a representative of Christ Jesus on the earth. Sanctify your heart with GOD's Word that you heart may be pure and your words, of grace. Let your words be pleasing to GOD.

Finally Beloved, you will give account of every idle words you speak on the day of judgement. By your words you will either be justified or condemned. Repent and refrain of idle words (vulgar words, cursing, swearing, gossiping, immoral words, worldly speakings and so on) that you might be justified and not condemned to Hell but inherit the Kingdom of Heaven.

The Grace of our Lord Jesus be with you. Amen.

GOD bless you.

Shalom
