Title: The Blessings of a Godly Tongue
Text:
Proverbs 12:14 (ESV)
14 From the fruit of his mouth a man is satisfied with good, and the work of a man's hand comes back to him.
Observation:
What comes out of our mouths comes from our heart. To have a godly tongue we must have a godly heart.
Luke 6:45 (ESV)
45 The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
There are so many blessings of having a godly heart that speaks godly words. A tongue that speaks godly words is precious like silver.
Proverbs 10:20 (ESV)
20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver; the heart of the wicked is of little worth.
Prayer:
Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I thank you for the godly wisdom that you promise to those who ask for it. Father, give us the wisdom to use our tongues wisely.
Father God, in grace, I ask you to give us godly hearts and godly tongues so that we might bear the fruit of those who have godly wisdom. In Jesus name, Amen.

Acts 6:4 (KJV)
4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
