Queens' Monthly Mentoring
Speaking the Language of the Kingdom Pt.2
Greetings!
Last month, we began this study looking at our speech and how our ability to control what comes out of our mouth affects our lives. We must continue to have our minds transformed by God's Word to the place where we are led by the Holy Spirit when we speak and say what God says about whatever situation we face. So, let's begin this month's lesson.
We cannot speak in line with the circumstance we currently face. God’s Word tells us that we have what we say, even if you see situations that look opposite of what God’s Word says, you have to speak what it is that is in line with God’s Word. You speak God’s Word over that situation and continue speaking it until you see it.
Mark 11:23 NKJV “For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.”
John 15:7 BSB “If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
Luke 8:49-50 ERV “While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master. But Jesus hearing it, answered him, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be made whole.”
1 John 5:14-15 AMP “This is the [remarkable degree of] confidence which we [as believers are entitled to] have before Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, [that is, consistent with His plan and purpose] He hears us. And if we know [for a fact, as indeed we do] that He hears and listens to us in whatever we ask, we [also] know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted to us] the requests which we have asked from Him.”
You must recognize the power in words.
Proverbs 18:21 CEV “Words can bring death or life! Talk too much, and you will eat everything you say.”James 3:5-10 AMP “In the same sense, the tongue is a small part of the body, and yet it boasts of great things. See [by comparison] how great a forest is set on fire by a small spark! And the tongue is [in a sense] a fire, the very world of injustice and unrighteousness; the tongue is set among our members as that which contaminates the entire body, and sets on fire the course of our life [the cycle of man’s existence], and is itself set on fire by hell (Gehenna). For every species of beasts and birds, of reptiles and sea creatures, is tamed and has been tamed by the human race. But no one can tame the human tongue; it is a restless evil [undisciplined, unstable], full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God. Out of the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. These things, my brothers, should not be this way [for we have a moral obligation to speak in a manner that reflects our fear of God and profound respect for His precepts]”
Matthew 12:36-37 AMP “But I tell you, on the day of judgment people will have to give an accounting for every careless or useless word they speak. For by your words [reflecting your spiritual condition] you will be justified and acquitted of the guilt of sin; and by your words [rejecting Me] you will be condemned and sentenced.”
Ephesians 4:29 AMP “Do not let unwholesome [foul, profane, worthless, vulgar] words ever come out of your mouth, but only such speech as is good for building up others, according to the need and the occasion, so that it will be a blessing to those who hear [you speak].
Colossians 4:6 WNT “Let your language be always seasoned with the salt of grace, so that you may know how to give every man a fitting answer.
Proverbs 12:18 GNT “Thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal.
Proverbs 15:4 AMP “A soothing tongue [speaking words that build up and encourage] is a tree of life, But a perversive tongue [speaking words that overwhelm and depress] crushes the spirit.
God uses language to accomplish whatever He needs to get done. Before man fell, he was supposed to operate the same way.
John 1:1-3 BSB “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made”
Genesis 11:6 CEV “he said: These people are working together because they all speak the same language. This is just the beginning. Soon they will be able to do anything they want.”
One of the signs of maturity in the Kingdom is knowing when to speak and when to be silent.
Proverbs 21:23 GNT “If you want to stay out of trouble, be careful what you say.
James 1:26 NLT “If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.
Proverbs 17:28 NLT “Even fools are thought wise when they keep silent; with their mouths shut, they seem intelligent.
1 Peter 3:10 NKJV “For He who would love life And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit.
Psalm 34:12-13 NLT “Does anyone want to live a life that is long and prosperous? Then keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies!
Proverbs 13:3 AMP “The one who guards his mouth [thinking before he speaks] protects his life; The one who opens his lips wide [and chatters without thinking] comes to ruin.
Proverbs 10:19 AMP “When there are many words, transgression and offense are unavoidable, But he who controls his lips and keeps thoughtful silence is wise.”
As a mature son of God, you cannot claim to be part of the Kingdom of God and not speak the language
Luke 6:45 GNT “A good person brings good out of the treasure of good things in his heart; a bad person brings bad out of his treasure of bad things. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.
Acts 4:13 LB “Now when they had heard the speech of Simon Peter and John, which they had spoken boldly, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they recognized them that they had been with Jesus.”
