What do you do when circumstances seem out of control? What's
first thing you look for? Or Whom? What immediately runs through your mind? Do you yell? Do you curse? Do you go bow up your back like a porcupine getting ready for all out war?By Word Of Mouth!
There is something that every one of us has been taught to do since we were born and yet so few people know how to control it. We have been taught how to talk, but still don't know how to control our mouth.
Getting control of your mouth is no harder than learning how to ride a bicycle; you just need to learn how. Sadly though, most people just let words fly as their circumstances get hotter than a nanny goat in a pepper patch.
I can hear someone now: "what's my words got to do with my circumstances?" Everything! Remember when you were trying to learn how to ride that bicycle? Who was it that had power to ride it or crash it? You! Controlling your tongue is no different.
Your mouth has more to do with success or failure in your life than you may realize. No one else can do your talking for you, no one else can determine whether you crash or ride.
Caught Red-handed!
Let me give you some Vegas-ology, and I really believe this. Most people go through their lives, day by day, just hoping nothing bad will happen to them that day. And, if it does, maybe it won't be so bad that I can't handle it, at least without much stress.
Then when something squirrelly happens, they go ballistic. Then they start saying, "why me God," "what did I do?" Then they start praying, then they start crying, and then they get real humble.
Well, guess what? Remember earlier when I said we spend all our lives learning how to talk and never learn how to control thing we talk with? That's where problem lies. We spend years and years responding same way to calamity, which just fills us with fear, worry, doubt and unbelief.
And, when an abundance of fear and worry root its way down into our spirits it overflows out of our mouth. Just like falling off a log.
Hear Me Now, Believe Me Later!
Now, when those words fly out of our mouth, our brain hears it; our emotions soak them up like a sponge; we start feeling like a our whole life is a square peg in a round hole, and, then worst possible thing happens; we start acting on words of fear.
When we start acting on words of fear, we start a cycle of worry and depression. And, cycle keeps repeating itself. A few moments of remorse, during our heartbreak, will just not reverse years and years of using an uncontrolled tongue.
Why do these things happen? Because of spiritual laws! We determine what happens to us by putting spiritual laws into motion through words that we speak out of our mouths. If this makes your feathers ruffle, don't get mad at me, I didn't design system. I wish I had.
To go a step further in understanding how our mouths determine direction of our lives, we need to understand how these spiritual laws work. To simplify this we can say there are two spiritual forces that we have to contend with.
Live And Learn!
Let's call these laws law of success and law of defeat. Another way to put it is; law of life and law of death. These spiritual laws do not work by happenstance. They don't work one way one time and another way another time.
You can't say something positive one time and have those same words mean something negative next time. That's craziness and system doesn't work that way. By same token, you can't talk words of fear, failure, defeat, sickness, poverty, and death, and expect opposite of those things to happen to you.
