GODLY SPEECH
OBSERVATION: THIS STUDY ADDRESSES THE MERIT OF GODLY SPEECH OPPOSED TO FALSE SPEECH.
INTERPRETATION: PROVERBS 10:31 (NKJV) THE MOUTH OF THE RIGHTEOUS BRINGS FORTH WISDOM, BUT THE PERVERSE TONGUE WILL BE CUT OUT. THE BOOK (PROVERBS 10:31) THE GODLY PERSON GIVES WISE ADVICE, BUT THE TONGUE THAT DECEIVES WILL BE CUT OFF.
GODLY SPEECH PRODUCES GODLY FRUIT: UNGODLY SPEECH PRODUCES THE EXACT OPPOSITE.
THE TONGUE THAT BRINGS FORTH EVIL THOUGHTS DOES NOT BEAR FRUIT AND WILL BE CUT DOWN. ULTIMATELY THE EVIL TONGUE PRODUCES CONFUSION AND SHAME.
A DEVOUT BELIEVER MUST EXERCISE DEVOUT SPEECH. HE EXERCISES HOLINESS IN HEART AND WALK. HE EXUDES GODLY PRINCIPLES DRIVEN WITH CHARACTER.
A GODLY BELIEVER EXERCISES GODLY PRINCIPLES BASED UPON THE WORD OF GOD: HE IS NOT EASILY DISSUADE FROM HIS CORE BELIEFS. HIS LIFE IS PURIFIED, SANCTIFIED AND DEDICATED TO HIS MASTER, GOD THE FATHER. HE PRACTICES WHAT HE PREACHES! PROVERBS 17: 20 (THE BOOK) THE CROOKED HEART WILL NOT PROSPER; THE TWISTED TONGUE TUMBLES INTO TROUBLE.
APPLICATION: A GODLY MOUTH SPEAKS WISDOM AN OUTGROWTH OF HIS HEART.
