What you believe changes everything!
What you believe changes everything!
Mark 11:24 I tell you, you can pray for anything, and if you believe that you’ve received it, it will be yours.
1 John 5:4 For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith.
Matt 21:22 You can pray for anything, and if you have faith, you will receive it.”
Heb 11:6 And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.
2 Cor 5:7 For we live by believing and not by seeing.
We all live what we believe and we all have a set of things we say we believe but the evidence is not clearly seen in our actions.
Ps 19:14May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
Prov 18:21The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences.
Matt 12:36–37And I tell you this, you must give an account on judgment day for every idle word you speak. The words you say will either acquit you or condemn you.”
Eph 4:29Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.
Col 4:6Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone.
Prov 15:1A gentle answer deflects anger, but harsh words make tempers flare.
Matt 15:11It’s not what goes into your mouth that defiles you; you are defiled by the words that come out of your mouth.”
Prov 12:18Some people make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise bring healing.
Ps 19:14May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
Prov 10:19Too much talk leads to sin. Be sensible and keep your mouth shut.Matt 5:37Just say a simple, ‘Yes, I will,’ or ‘No, I won’t.’ Anything beyond this is from the evil one.
Prov 16:24Kind words are like honey— sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.
Prov 21:23Watch your tongue and keep your mouth shut, and you will stay out of trouble.
James 1:19Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.
1 Pet 3:10For the Scriptures say, “If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies.
James 3:2–12Indeed, we all make many mistakes. For if we could control our tongues, we would be perfect and could also control ourselves in every other way. We can make a large horse go wherever we want by means of a small bit in its mouth. And a small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong. In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire. And among all the parts of the body, the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself. People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison. Sometimes it praises our Lord and Father, and sometimes it curses those who have been made in the image of God. And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right! Does a spring of water bubble out with both fresh water and bitter water? Does a fig tree produce olives, or a grapevine produce figs? No, and you can’t draw fresh water from a salty spring.
