SPEAK WORDS OF HEALING Monday 2nd December 2013 ... the words of the wise bring healing Proverbs 12:18 NLT Colossians 4:6 (NKJ) says that our words should be seasoned with salt. Salt has two primary purposes: it preserves and it adds flavour. This means that our speech should preserve and bring health to all who hear it. It should bring life to the soul, not destroy, harm or upset. This is very hard to do if whats in your heart is negative, bitter, angry or jealous. James says, You cant draw fresh water from a salty spring (James 3:12 NLT) - in other words, you cant fake whats in your heart. Its not just a question of learning to say the right things; its about that right attitude going all the way down to the core. Words are powerful. A single person can impact someones entire life with a throwaway comment such as you dont know what youre talking about. If we have a low opinion of ourselves, its easy to feel our words have no effect and that no one listens. But in truth, whatever you think about yourself, your words will have an impact on others. Watch your words carefully! So what now? Keep a mental check of the words you speak today, and whether theyre spoken thinking about other peoples best interests.
