The Word put in your mouth The power of our language is not small. Most of us can bear witness that the human tongue has the power to kill all sorts of things: relationships, dreams, trust. Thank God many of us may have also enjoyed the words that give life, encouragement, instruction and exhortation.
A key element in learning to walk in God's way is to learn to speak by faith and obedience. James 3:2 says that one of the main signs of a mature Christian is a tamed tongue. For a holy mouth we have to cooperate with God to receive it. The idea is that the more we believe the Word and then took the opportunity to speak this word, the more actively we live and breathe faith.
This can be achieved: Reading Scripture, memorizing, meditating on them and commenting on biblical truths.
John 15:7 says: "If you abide in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish and be granted. "
In the wilderness of temptation, Christ gave an example of how to respond to the Word of God to meet temptation and we should copy his example.
