Dear Friend,<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I pray you are doing well on your journey with speaking God\u2019s Word. Don\u2019t get discouraged! It takes time to train yourself to speak God\u2019s Word over a situation. Sometimes, it\u2019s harder still to hold your tongue!\u00a0 I know there have been times when I wanted to unleash my words in anger. We really do carry a loaded gun beneath our noses!\u00a0 We can shoot off words that destroy rather than heal.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This week I want to encourage you to set a guard on your tongue. Don\u2019t speak the first thing that comes to your mind.<\/p>\n

Set a guard, O\u00a0Lord, over my\u00a0mouth; Psalm 141:3 (NKJV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.<\/strong><\/p>\n James 1:26 (ESV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When I lived in North Carolina, I bought a license plate that read, \u201cProverbs 18:21.\u201d\u00a0 That scripture says that the power of death and life are in your tongue, and I wanted to keep that scripture close to me everywhere I traveled.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We all fall sometimes and speak words that we shouldn\u2019t.\u00a0 Be encouraged.\u00a0 Get up and keep walking by faith, keep speaking the Word of God.\u00a0 Set a guard over your mouth.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Victory is yours!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pastor Jo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Set a Guard on Your Tongue<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5698,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","re":[],"class_list":["post-5694","wow","type-wow","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pastorjoramsay.com\/stwm_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wow\/5694","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pastorjoramsay.com\/stwm_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wow"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pastorjoramsay.com\/stwm_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/wow"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pastorjoramsay.com\/stwm_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pastorjoramsay.com\/stwm_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5694"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"re","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pastorjoramsay.com\/stwm_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/re?post=5694"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
