OUR MOUTH AND LIPS
Psalms 140:3 (141:3)
Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth,
A door of enclosure about my lips
Personal challenge
Our mouth can get us into so much trouble or it can calm the storm. Throughout the scriptures, both Old Testament and New, we are told just how powerful and dangerous the mouth and lips can be. Jesus took it farther and told us that what comes out of our mouth is that which resides within our hearts. It is our heart that drives what we think, say and do. If we want to be godly in our thoughts, actions, and most importantly what comes out of our mouth (or keyboard), then we need our Lord to be the one who watches over our heart and put a door over it to monitor what comes out. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
