This week: OUR MIND & OUR MOUTH This combo is key to our salvation in every area Romans 10:8,9,10 The HEALTH of OUR WORDS is connected to the HEALTH of our MIND   Prov 16:24 KJV Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. Prov 18:20- AMP   A man's self shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth; and with the consequence of his words he must be satisfied [whether good or evil]. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life]. ? If I was filled with what I have been saying, what would that look like? Prov 21:23 kjv Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.   Matt 12:33-ESV  “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for the tree is known by its fruit. 34 You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 35 The good person out of his good treasure  (deposit) brings forth good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure (deposit) brings forth evil. 36 I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, 37 for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”   Negative thoughts NEED God’s positive WORD spoken John Lindell “Our feelings are not always chosen but our words always are”   Prov 21:23 kjv Whoso keepeth (guarded, protected, hedged about) his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.              Ps 141:3 niv Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord; keep watch over the door of my lips.

Think about these scripture statements: as he thinks in his heart so is he Keep your heart with all diligence for out of your heart are the issues of life Charles Capps “There was a time when you could be off from the centerline at the top of the triangle and still be inside the triangle of light. But as you approach the triangle of the end, you must move to the center line” The Triangle of the End   1 Peter 1:13-KJV 13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. GIRD UP- brace up your minds, prepare your minds for action, EX 12:11 Eph 6:14 tells us to have our loins gird about with TRUTH Loins=procreative power, productivity   Phil 4:6- Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. 7 And God's peace which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. 8 For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them]. 9 Practice what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and model your way of living on it, and the God of peace (of untroubled, undisturbed well-being) will be with you. NT:5432 froureoo,:1.to guard, protect by a military guard, in order to prevent hostile invasion- Thayer’s FEAR/anxiety is a spiritual force 2 Tim 1:7 kjv For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Power-dunamis       love- agape       sound mind- self control   1 John 4:18 amp  There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love's complete perfection].
