Mouth!!#11



We live in a day where crude or filthy talk are common place. Not only in our daily lives do we have to put up with the mess but even the TV and movie screens are full of the garbage. Some folks could not talk if they did not use this kind of talk! So what does God have to say about it?

Colossians 3:8
8 But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.

Ephesians 5:4
4 Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving.

Well that makes it pretty easy to figure out for us hardheads don't it? No obscene talk, no filth, no foolish talk, or crude joking!!! Can God make it anymore plain to us than that? The verse goes on to say thanksgiving should flow out of our mouths!!

If we had praise and thanksgiving flowing from our mouths we would not have time or even think about ungodly talk!

So let us take a look at our mouths this morning, is the praise flowing or is the filth flowing? We see what God desires from us so may we all be obedient to our Holy God!
