The Spirit of the Lord says:
Watch the words that you speak! In these days as I am calling forth the Sons of God to arise in the earth, I am reinforcing My standards as I reestablish My expectations for those who are My mature offspring – those who are committed to living a life led by My Spirit.
As My offspring you are to have fruitful lips and the words that you speak must produce that fruitfulness. Fruitfulness in any form is born out of oneness with Me, for I am the only source for this. As Sons of God, your language is to reflect the language of My Kingdom, not the kingdoms of this world.
The kingdoms of this world say, ‘words don’t matter’; they give little to no esteem to the words that are released saying, ‘they are just words.’ However, in My Kingdom, it is quite the opposite, words do indeed matter. And just as My words have assignments to produce the very thing unto which I have sent them to do only returning to Me as ‘mission accomplished’, so must yours.
As My offspring I hold the same expectation of the words that you speak, so do not treat them carelessly, you will be held accountable for each careless and idle word. What is an idle word? One that does not produce Kingdom fruit.
ACTIVATION:
The Spirit of the Lord is challenging us to be more mindful of the words that we speak while cautioning us that our words do indeed matter. How do we begin to walk this out? By asking the Lord for His help. Make the following prayer based on Psalm 141:3 a regular prayer:
“Father in heaven, I give you permission to set a guard over my mouth; I ask that you keep watch over the door of my lips to keep me from speaking thoughtlessly or carelessly. Take control of what I say, O LORD, and guard my lips. In the name of Jesus, amen.”
10 For as the rain and snow come down from the heavens, and return not there again, but water the earth and make it bring forth and sprout, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
11 So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void [without producing any effect, useless], but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.Isaiah 55:10-11 (AMPC)
Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth;
Keep watch over the door of my lips [to keep me from speaking thoughtlessly].Psalm 141:3 (AMP)
But I tell you, on the day of judgment people will have to give an accounting for every careless or useless word they speak.
Matthew 12:36 (AMP)
