The Power Of The Tongue by Doug Giles

“Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose.”
- Proverbs 18:21 (MSG)

James said in James 3:6 that we can create hell in our life by our unbridled tongue. Conversely, Solomon says in Proverbs 18:21 that death and life are in the power of the tongue. Here’s a question for you: What type of verbiage are you spewing over your life and your loved ones? Huh? What are you declaring over our nation? Are you declaring blessings or curses over your Church, Family, and State? When Moses sent the twelve spies into Canaan to check out the Promised Land, ten of the spies said they were like “grasshoppers before the enemy” (Num 13:33). Yep, they said that they were wee little bugs before the badass warriors of Canaan. Guess what the ten shriveled testicle tepid spies became, little children? If you guessed they became grasshoppers then pat yourself on the back because you’re correct. They first said they were grasshoppers and then they became grasshoppers. In contrast to those ten goobers, Joshua and Caleb said that they could whip the Canaanites’ backside, and guess what? They did. And they did it at the ripe old age of 85 (Num. 14:38). Here’s the bottom line, Christian: if you think and say you can’t, you won’t. If you think and say you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you, you will. Or as Dr. Peterson put it: “Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose.” – Proverbs 18:21 (MSG)

God Goes Into Action When This Happens 3 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES “When two of you get together on anything at all on earth and make a prayer of it, my Father in heaven goes into action.” - Matthew 18:19 (MSG) That’s a powerful little proclamation, right there my brothers. It’s kinda stupefying to me that The Son of The Living God, who sports all power and all authority in heaven and on earth, said if two of us chuckleheads get together on anything at all on earth and make a prayer of it, God...

How to Pray Against Evil Schemers 3 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES Have you ever looked at clearly wicked impenitent people and leaders and thought, “Why the heck are they prospering and their wretched schemes succeeding?” In the meantime, in between time, folks that are trying to do right, obey God and influence society with the gracious biblical worldview, are getting kicked by culture like a stuck door at Chuck Norris’ house.
