🔥 BEFORE YOU SAY IT—LEARN WHAT IT MEANS! 🔥
Profanity may be popular in today’s culture, but popularity does not make corrupt communication pleasing to God. Some words degrade women, dishonor mothers, express sexual vulgarity, promote hatred, or misuse the holy Name of God. We cannot allow blessing and cursing to continue flowing from the same mouth!
God created our mouths to pray, praise, encourage, speak truth, proclaim the Gospel, and glorify His holy Name. Let us ask Him to cleanse our hearts, sanctify our speech, and place a watch over our mouths.
I refuse to let the world control my vocabulary! I am moving my mouth from profanity to praise, from cursing to blessing, and from corrupt communication to words that bring God glory!
“Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.” —James 3:10 KJV
Father, in the precious Name of Jesus, forgive us for every careless, corrupt, profane, and hurtful word we have spoken. Purify our hearts, sanctify our mouths, and teach us to speak words filled with truth, love, encouragement, and praise.
Lord, help us to understand that unrepentant sin—including continuing to speak corruptly, dishonoring Your holy Name, and using our words to curse and destroy—can cause our souls to be lost and lead to eternal damnation. Please convict us while we still have time to repent. We confess our sins and ask for Your mercy and forgiveness. Wash us in the precious BLOOD of Jesus, change our hearts, and place a watch before our mouths. Let everything we say bring glory to You.
Thank You for Your promise that if we confess our sins, You are faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. In Jesus’ precious Name, Amen!
“For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.” —Matthew 12:37 KJV
