The Need For Self Control An Undisciplined World

This revelation of the need for self control today isn't popular but nevertheless necessary. This humbled me Lord help me Jesus with my mouth help me to say what you have me to say Lord and not to just to say everything I think out of my emotions. An undisciplined tongue is like undisciplined mind and both are extremely dangerous! Someone spoke to me a long time ago that the fact we have two ears and one mouth, has a purpose we were to be listening twice as much as we speak. Now for how many of us today is that true? Those of us who consider ourselves deeply spiritual individuals while having diarrhea of the mouth! In others words moths are overflowing with filth because we can't control our tongue. Every time that you speak we see the real you, so now no one is impressed with how you can quote scriptures when you don't live that life! Matthew 12:36-37 says, "I tell you, on the Day of Judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned". Because many of us don't have enough discipline to control our tongue then our words are now bring us to ruin. Killing with our words everything that faith is trying to build so we most of the time counterproductive and ineffective.   James 1: 26 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. So ask yourself today do you have true religion since so many big on religion but without accountability and obedience to Godly principles. 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
