Neither give place to the devil. Let no CORRUPT(ION) communication PROCEED OUT OF YOUR MOUTH, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. and (THAT YOU) GRIEVE NOT THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. LET ALL bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and EVIL SPEAKING, BE PUT AWAY FROM YOU, with all malice: And BE YE KIND one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:27,29-32. This is an exhortation, an encouragement, a Command, for ALL Believers to follow. This IS to be followed to the letter of the Law, and to the Spirit of The Law, which IS The Will Of God. And to top this all off, this IS impossible for man to follow of his own free will because NO MAN can tame the tongue, it literally takes AN ACT OF GOD in your life for you to even consider Obeying this one. Oh yes, our best intentions, plans, and ideas of only speaking "rightly" went out the window the day we were born. But don't despair, THIS ABSOLUTELY CAN BE DONE THROUGH MOMENT BY MOMENT OBEDIENCE TO THE HOLY SPIRIT. All you have to do is, EVERY time you think about something to start to say, and you feel that little nudge to be quiet, STOP, and Obey that nudge, and all will be well. This thinking, acting, and obeying can happen in an instant, by the clock, but in Christ, it can feel like minutes. The thought of some thing springs up in your mind, you take a moment to actually think about what, you are wanting to say, and the Holy Spirit registers Yes, or No, inside your head, AND you then decide to actually Obey Him, OR NOT, all in that instant that can feel like a long discussion with the Lord. And just to top it all off, WE WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO THE LORD ON JUDGMENT DAY FOR OUR DECISION TO OBEY OR NOT, as we explain Obedience, or not. Be Encouraged Believers, "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me," and, Be Blessed.
