Making the most of your words

Published: Tue, 12/05/23

God made us verbal creatures.

That is, we can speak!

And we can use our words to cultivate the various domains He entrusts us to develop.

James conveys the power of speech by likening it to a rudder able to steer a large ship.

And he also warns it can be a fire that burns down a forest.

Proverbs has a lot to say about our speech.

And gives us the marks of good words…

Revealing they are: honest… few… calm.. and fitting for the moment.

So consider your words today…

And how you can further your dominion in God’s world by how you use them.

May our words not be a noisy gong to those who hear us…

But grace-filled instruments to guide, build up and advance God’s kingdom.

Get Dominion,

David Bostrom
