MIND YOUR WORDS
1 Peter 3:10 For, "Whoever would love life and see good days must keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech. (NIV)
This scripture implies that those who hate life and see bad days do not keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech. The circumstances of their lives resulted from their words. There are people who hate to live; they are discouraged and fed up with life and its unending problems. They always see bad days. They have seen bad days in their marriage, business, family, job, work etc. They are accustomed to seeing bad days.
The Bible says in 1 Peter 3:10, "For, "Whoever would love life and see good days must keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech."
You love life when you are winning. It doesn't mean you won't face trouble or opposition but that you always win over them, not because of anything but because of how you use your tongue and lips.
The Bible instructs you to keep your tongue from evil and your lips from deceitful speech if you want to enjoy life and experience good, blessed and glorious days. Evil words and deceitful speech are words that pervert the truth of God. God's Word is the Truth. The truth the Gospel teaches is our reality and life, which we must speak and live by. If we speak contrary to the truth of the Gospel that is evil and deceitful speech, and it is called perversion. Mind your words.
Your words matter most. Mind what you say. The Bible didn't say you would love life and see good days if you desire to or pray to, but that if you mind your words. It's not down to what you want or desire or even qualified for but how you use your words. So keep your tongue from evil and your lips from perversion.
CONFESSION
I know the quality of my life depends on my words, therefore I choose my words rightly. I shall enjoy life and experience good days through the wisdom of my mouth. I speak consistently in agreement with God's Truth, the truth of the Gospel of Christ and experience the reality and blessings. Amen.
