What Is An Idle Word
|
|
Do you remember how easily the old man could be provoked and how you responded back - giving back as good as you were getting?
Even here, do you have to check yourself, knowing that it's not the moderator's job to check all of our idle words. |

Idle words are any words spoken that is not spoken to the glorifying of God. |

The key is not to be wise in our own eyes, but ask the Father to deliver us from evil.
If we don't repent, forgive, and demonstrate love, we will grow lukewarm and no longer care about every idle word. God makes note of every word coming out of our mouthes. |

Do you remember when evil words slipped out of your heart through your mouth and repenting for them?
Do you remember the day, when you no longer paid attention to the Holy Spirit, checking you about evil or harsh words? How easy it is to slip back into the ways of the old man? |

After the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I repented for every evil word and every evil deed in my life. The Holy Spirit would bring to my remembrance, my debts towards others - every evil, awful thing out of my mouth. I asked God to clean me up, and that went on for quite some time.
Those were the best days of my life. I looked at every person in the store or street with love. |

Before the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I did not repent like that. I did not care about every single person that I saw struggling with a grocery cart and no home.
I remember a man pulling up beside me, rolling down his window, as I was praying and crying over such a person. He said, "Lady, it can't possibly be that bad of a day, what's the matter with you?" |

I cried about the homeless and I cried about the lost. I tried to maintain when I pulled up to streetlights, but driving with God in my car was heavenly.
When we're first saved, we're hot, we're on fire for the Lord and God doesn't want that to go away.
If you don't care about every idle word coming out of your mouth, ask God to purge you and clean you up, from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet. |

Repenting and forgiving, sharing our faith, demonstrating our love - God wants us to be disciples of Christ. |

Do you remember the days after you received the baptism of the Holy Spirit?
Every single word was measured.
Do you remember when you slipped back into old habits, how quickly the Holy Spirit stopped you from saying critical words about others? |

Do you remember looking at everyone with love and wanting every single person to be saved?
Do you remember sitting at the stoplight, watching the less fortunate with all of their belongings in a shopping cart in plastic bags, praying for their safety, protection and salvation immediately?
Do you remember stopping and giving them what you could? |

Blessings Whisper, our words are the evidence of the state of our hearts. If you think about it, how many idle, foolish, and unprofitable things we have all said. Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord, keep watch over the doors of my lips(Psalm 141:3). Our daily conversation should always be full of grace. Soloman says in Proverbs 18:21 that the tongue has the power of life and death. God Bless! |

When one speaks words which are meaningless,unhealthy,derogatory,negative,untrue or useless in content, these are idle words which will need to be accounted for at judgement. We must be very careful of what we say. Leah |
