Church, one day, you and I are gonna have to give an account for the way we live our lives here in this world. The lord's gonna play you out a movie and show you everything. But when you come to this place where you repent, you said, Lord, I surrender. The the the Bible says that he takes all of our transgression, transgression, all of our sins, all of our bad choices, all of our messed up choices, and he puts it in the bottom of the ocean. As far as the East is from the West and then he says, man, I don't remember it no more. But if you don't surrender and you don't repent, it cannot happen. And that's why it's so important that we live this life A faith filled life but also a repentant life. [02:00:37] (51 seconds)  #SurrenderAndRepent

Death and life kill or give life. They are both in the power of the tongue. This thing right here. If we use our tongues properly, we will be a tree of life. But if we use our tongues improperly, then the result is death. If the fruit is sweet, we will eat sweet fruit. If the fruit is bitter, we will feed on bitter fruit. God has orchestrated that way. That's the way he has made it. The tongue is the decisive number. What will your tongue choose today? Amen. It's your choice. [01:07:10] (34 seconds)  #TongueChoosesLife

So, we gotta be careful guys because we could use our tongue to praise god, our father, and then we turn around and we curse someone. Then, we bring those curses upon ourselves because we are made in his image. We cannot be cursing god's creation. It's one thing that I taught the kids. Don't you dare speak bad about somebody else. That is god's creation. You don't have a right to speak like that about them. If you don't like something, give it to God. Words determine your future. [01:20:42] (30 seconds)  #RespectGodsCreation

Think that the thing that we do a lot is when someone speak things that we don't like, we're quick, right, to battle them down. I'm gonna take you down. I'm gonna battle you with my words. Right? And we missed the whole point. Like, you missed the whole test. You failed the test. Because the way the person speaks is what stuff inside of it that have not been healed many times when it's unhealthy words. So how can our words be good and trustworthy if we are rotten within? Here, Jesus refers to the heart as the tree and the words that come out of the mouth as the fruit. [01:12:14] (35 seconds)  #WordsRevealTheHeart

God does much the same with us as that doctor did with his patients. God may ask us, how you're doing? And maybe I will go, oh god, let me tell you about my day. Man, this didn't go well. This went well. But man, god, thank you Jesus. Right? But man, the next question that god asks us. This next question that god asks us each and every one of us today. Show me your tongue. What will he what will he find when you show him your tongue? The state of your tongue is a very sure guide of your spiritual condition. [01:09:44] (41 seconds)  #TongueReflectsSoul

Now god has offered to us the same promise of entering into his realm of resting in confident faith. So we must be extremely careful to ensure that we all embrace the fullness of that promise and not fail to experience it. For we have heard the good news of deliverance just as they did the Israelites. Right? Yet they didn't join their faith with the word. Instead, what they heard didn't affect them deeply for they doubt it. For those of us who believe, faith activates the promise and we experience the realm of confident rest. For he has said, I was grieved with them and made a solemn oath that they will never enter into the calming rest of my spirit. [01:54:29] (48 seconds)  #ConfidentRestByFaith

But guard your words, and you will guard your life. But if you don't control your tongue, it says, if you don't control your tongue, it's gonna ruin everything. Your soul, your life is your whole personality. It is the real you. This is the area where weakness will be manifested first and where the enemy will gain access first. If you want to guard your life, if you wanna protect your life, you gotta guard your lips. [01:00:44] (27 seconds)  #GuardYourLips

will cost you dreams. It will cost you a family. It will cost you of god's best over your life. It will cost you. You you living out your good life the way we said it earlier. It will cost you so much. So, watch your words and be careful what you say and you will be surprised how few troubles you'll have. Proverbs fifteen four says, when you speak healing words, you offer others fruit from the tree of life. Oh, it's so god. [01:02:57] (34 seconds)  #SpeakHealingWords
