THE FRUIT OF THE
UNCONTROLLED
MOUTH.
YOU CREATE HEAVEN OR HELL WITH YOUR
TONGUE…
HOW GOD CREATES:
Genesis 1
3 And God said,
6 And God said,
9 And God said,

11 Then God said,
14 And God said,
20 And God said
24 And God said,
26 Then God said,
28 God blessed them and said to them,
29 Then God said,
WHAT IS JESUS?
John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made
that has been made.

Jesus is the manifest word of God. That is why he could say that
all power was given to him. (Matthew 28.)
HOW POWERFUL IS THE
TONGUE?
Proverbs 18:21
21 The tongue has the power of life and death,
and those who love it will eat its fruit.
JAMES 3
3 When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. 4 Or take ships
as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder
wherever the pilot wants to go. 5 Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider
what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 6 The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the
body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
7 All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures are being tamed and have been tamed by mankind, 8 but no
human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s
likeness. 10 Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing – (Negative talk). My brothers and sisters, this should
not be. 11 Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? 12 My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree
bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that
comes from wisdom. 14 But if you harbour bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or
deny the truth. 15 Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. 16 For where
you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
17 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of
mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. 18 Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
THE SOUND YOU MAKE:
If a car engine makes knocking or stuttering noises –
Something is wrong. – It needs a mechanic.
If an instrument is out of tune it makes the whole band sound
bad. – It needs to be tuned or the musician needs to learn
how to play it.

The tone you use when you say something is as important as
what you actually say.
If your tone is off, you need help!
JAMES 1:26
Anyone who thinks he is spiritual and does not bridle his
tongue but deceives his heart, this person's religion is
worthless.
It doesn’t matter what you believe, if you cannot control what
comes out of your mouth, your entire belief system is
powerless to help you.
PROVERBS 16:23-24
The heart of the wise makes his speech judicious and adds
persuasiveness to his lips. Gracious words are like a
honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body.

Your words and tone are supposed to bring health, inspire,
motivate, build etc.
The only time you can switch to harsh tones is if it achieves
those goals.
Remember – you are creating with your mouth…
LIES FROM THE PIT OF HELL:
‘Don’t compliment people, it will go to their heads’.
‘Be sparing with your praise of others’.
‘Don’t get people used to compliments, they will take them for
granted’.

‘You don’t understand these people, if you don’t talk to them
harshly they will do nothing’.
Harsh tone of voice is to convey urgency. You use it in love,
never in anger. Even then, use it sparingly. The brain uses
almost 10 times more energy to express anger as it does to
convey love and appreciation.
HOW TO CHANGE?
1) Focus on speaking life all the time.
2) Don’t worry about your temper.
If you focus on being positive and edifying people, you will
draw amazing people and amazing things into your life.
STOP BEING AFRAID OF
WHAT COULD GO
WRONG AND START
BEING POSITIVE ABOUT
WHAT COULD GO RIGHT.
OKTHXBAI.
LETS BAPTISE PEOPLE! WOOHOO!
