Isa 50:2,4 \u201cThe Lord God has given Me the tongue of the learned,
\nThat I should know how to speak A word in season to him who is weary.
\nHe awakens me morning by morning, He awakens my ear to hear as the learned.<\/p>\n
We cannot downplay the power of our words; our brain is wired to respond to words. Thus we should sieve our words to avoid damage and curb verbal trauma. Our choice of words should reflect Godliness and bring refreshment to the weary and not to wreak havoc. We should be intentional and ask the Lord to give us a tongue that is taught of Him and resembles His Wisdom.<\/p>\n
Word use may even influence the experience of physical pain. What people know about certain words, including when they\u2019re commonly used, also changes how people think about other words. Positive verbal affirmations \u2014 or \u201cgood words\u201d\u2014 can lift people up. Encouragement can improve physical performance. Words can also cause harm. Childhood bullying, verbal abuse in domestic relationships, and even word choice by medical professionals can lead to emotional challenges. (2023 Psyc Central)<\/p>\n
Our speech has long lasting effects. Once words are spoken they cannot be retrieved back. Words can either build or destroy . A learned person acquires much knowledge through study. There is a clarion call to be good Bible students as we delve in fellowship with the Lord for us to exhibit the tongue of the learned.<\/p>\n
Our speech ought to be seasoned with divine wisdom for it to be beneficial to the hearers. This wisdom is only derived from being an apt student of the Word of God. God is the source of life. If we are disconnected from the source then flow of life will be cut off. The tongue of a Godly disciple is a righteous tongue that is a fountain of life. Our tongues should be effective tools to build others and allow them reach their maximum potential in their journey of destiny.<\/p>\n
