IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY LIFE
Part 1
“If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies. Turn away from evil and do good. Search for peace, and work to maintain it. (1 Peter 3:10-11 NLT)
Do you want to enjoy life and have many happy days?
Then:
- – Don’t use your mouth to speak evil.
Use it with expressions that are positive, constructive, full of faith, that edify and don’t destroy, etc.
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. (Psalms 19:14 NLT).
- – Don’t be a liar.
Sooner or later everything comes to light.
For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known. (Luke 12:2 NKJV)
It’s better to lead our daily lives with truth because the truth always has authority, besides God loves and delights in the truth.
The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those who tell the truth.
(Proverbs 12:22 NLT)
…“If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies. (1 Peter 3:10 NLT)
To be continued…
Think about it:
Is it more common for you to speak positive, faith-filled words? or negative words?
What word can you give to someone who is going through tribulation on this day?
Have you been living honestly?
