Proverbs 18:20 (AMP) A man’s [moral] 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].

What we experience in life (good or evil) is a direct result of what we speak. Our words have power. What we say, whether we believe it or not, comes to pass. For those who are saying things such as, “I’m sick and tired of doing this or that,” we reap the consequences of our words and literally become sick and tired. We wonder why people live a short life after people constantly say things such as, “My _______are killing me.” Let’s be mindful of our words.

In addition to speaking death, doom, and destruction over our own lives, we reap the consequences of speaking negativity over someone else’s life. Galatians 6:7 states whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. If we constantly talk about someone else in a negative way, we can expect to reap the consequences of our own words. Do people really expect to live a life of joy, peace, and prosperity while speaking negatively over someone or something else?

Let’s be mindful of our words and speak life.
