Here are some of the places in the bible where it tells us the importance of our words and the importance of knowing God’s Words.
Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, Sweetness to the soul and health to the bones. Proverbs 16:24
All the words of my mouth are with righteousness; Nothing crooked or perverse is in them. Proverbs 8:8
………a fool’s voice is known by his many words. Ecclesiastes 5:3
The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious, But the lips of a fool shall swallow him up; Ecclesiastes 10:12
The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives the understanding to the simple. Psalm 119:130
The words of his mouth begin with foolishness, And the end of his talk is raving madness. Ecclesiastes 10:13
A fool also multiplies words. Ecclesiastes 10:14
……….they sit before you as My people, and they hear your words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their hearts pursue their own gain. Ezekiel 33:31
Words do matter and God knows if we really mean what we are saying; He knows our thoughts, He knows our hearts. It would also seem that positive , kind and uplifting words has a lot to do with our health and well being.
Our words really do matter, believe that wholeheartedly. If you don’t absolutely mean it, then don’t say it indeed! Lovely!
So true.
