Every word we speak either brings God on the scene, or the devil. How do we know this? Proverbs 18:21: “Life and death are in the power of the tongue: And those who love it will eat its fruit.” Jesus said, “But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment, (Matthew 12:36, KJV). This sure makes me want to shut up! Enough said!!
When you pay no attention to the devil with your mouth, he will get bored and eventually leave. When you pay attention to the Lord with your mouth, giving Him Praise and Worship, the devil flees! The words of your mouth guide your life like the rudder of a ship. You decide which direction you want things to go. (James 3:3-5).
