Taming the Tongue

Good morning I AM CONSISTENT Life Speaker!

From yesterday “Speak it and it shall come back to you!” to today I felt led to James 3:2-3.

2 For we all stumble and sin in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says [never saying the wrong thing], he is a perfect man [fully developed in character, without serious flaws], able to bridle his whole body and rein in his entire nature [taming his human faults and weaknesses]. 3 Now if we put bits into the horses’ mouths to make them obey us, we guide their whole body as well.

No man can tame the tongue without divine grace and assistance. When you think about the analogy of the bit in the horse’s mouth. Using a bit allows the horse to move in the direction the rider wants to go. In a properly trained with the right track and a knowledgeable rider, it ALL WORKS TOGETHER to CREATE UNITY between the riders wishes and the horses performance. The bit applies PRESSURE to the tongue.

Spiritually thinking about this How are you allowing God to tame your tongue? The bible is our bit that allows us to move in the direction God wants us to go. It can control the whole body if we allow the words within it to direct our path. The bible is life. God is a knowledgeable and all-knowing God, therefore when we take instructions from Him, ALL THING WORK TOGETHER FOR OUR GOOD and CREATES lasting RELATIONSHIP, UNION, Communion and Covenant between God and man. Let the pressure be applied to your tongue to speak life.

You can bridle appetite when you desire to lose weight but not restrain your tongue. One of the smallest members of your body that is the most deadly. Let’s aim to be consistent with our words.

Say: God help me today to tame my tongue. Let your grace and assistance help me to speak words of power and life. Let the words of my mouth be acceptable in your sight. Let me not speak idle, destroying words with my mouth. Let me demonstrate your love God and the kingdom will flow out of me.

Command your mouth this morning!

I finished reading " Who told you, You were naked". I must say LaToya Bilbo it was a great read. Be sure to get your copy. It was easy to read and a great eye opener to things you may have done or thought about and didn't know it was sin. I truly enjoyed it and had to finish it once I picked it up. It has blessed my soul in so many ways. Each day I strive to do better now that I know some of the things that hold me back. - Bettie Fletcher

"Sometimes you're pushed in unfamiliar, and uncomfortable situations, but God will begin to tug at your heart. So you feel the pull. You find yourself in prayer, releasing it back to God. Reading this just reminds me of how effective prayer is, and how powerful God is. His love never fails.


This book is so transparent and raw. It's difficult to share such personal, and private things. But with God....anything is possible. This read is filled with so much spiritual food, and testimonial experience of miracles. I highly recommend this book, and have your tissue ready."

Wo-Man Two Became One:

This awesome book is a great easy read. The correlation of words and questions within "wo-man" causes the reader to have thought provoking questions towards themselves more than pointing finger at your spouse/ significant other or whatever title you want to give the person you are intimate with. So get your copy so that you can take a good look at yourself. At the same time this is a good read for couples to do together. Get "WO-MAN" its a great investment! - Melinda Sue

Speak Life, Life Speaker (2)

Speak Life is an amazing book. This book has changed my life in so mnay ways.  The prompts are so powerful and will have you looking at your space and the company you keep through different lenses. I feel like a ten lb weight has been lifted off of me after reading this, following the prompts, and being more sensitive to the spirit.  Latoya is amazing, she was there throughout the entire process with encouragement and a beautiful message from God. I highly recommend this book if you are looking to declutter your life in order to live a purpose drivn life. - Ashley Dumas

Speak Life, Life Speaker (2)

This book was even better the 2nd time around with the book group. It was enlightening and has helped me to declutter in areas that I didn't even realize was cluttered.  I've gained more strength to push even harder to "look upward" more often for help to "grow up" with the Word of God. I am not alone on this journey. I have the determination to persevere. - Lakesha McKie
