Why Words Matter

Good News Church – Yukon, OK

I had a birthday a few months ago and turned 60. I felt that now was a good time for me to develop a 10 year plan to set out goals and things to work toward. One of the main tenets is the desire I have to think about the words that are spoken out of my mouth. The harvest created by your words can be either bad or good. God is merciful to us but ultimately the words we say will control the outcome. I want to dive into the scriptural backing behind the reasoning that our words matter tonight. I believe that the Old Testament, Proverbs, Gospels, and Epistles all have important doctrine about the power of our words.
