BATTLING NEGATIVE WORDS (MOUNTAIN OF LIFE TRANSFORMATION CENTRE SUNDAY SERVICE)

Proverbs 18:21 states, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits" (ESV). This proverb highlights the immense impact of spoken words, which can either build up (life) or destroy (death), with individuals ultimately experiencing the consequences of their speech. Key Themes and Interpretations: The Power of Words: Words are not neutral; they are described as having the ability to destroy through gossip and lies, or heal through encouragement and truth. "Eating the Fruit": This phrase means people will live with the consequences of their speech. If one speaks negatively, they will experience a negative, "dead" environment. If they speak positively, they will experience "life". Digital Age Application: The principle applies to all forms of communication, including texts, social media posts, and emails, which can carry the same, or greater, destructive or constructive power. Actionable Advice: The verse encourages choosing words that bring life, hope, and healing, rather than those that cause discouragement, bitterness, or fear. Colossians 3:15–21 New International Version (2011) 15 Let the peace of Christb rule in your hearts, since as members of one bodyc you were called to peace.d And be thankful. 16 Let the message of Christe dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdomf through psalms,g hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.h 17 And whatever you do,i whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanksj to God the Father through him.
