Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel Week 19 Day (2) Monday, 6th May 2024 TOPIC: LESSON FROM KING SAUL AND DAVID: Taming The Mouth (2)

“7. And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.”

The words from our mouth either have a positive or negative impact on us and others, always think before you speak.

The lifting and downfall we experience most times are results of the words of mouth. Discouraging or encouraging others is also a product of the mouth, how do we speak and what do we say often, does our words hurt or heals others? Do we destroy or build our lives with our words? We need to use our words to build, instill courage and impact others and ourselves. When we are joyful do we watch what we say? When we are going through tough times, do we constructively use our words?

The women’s words penetrated the heart of King Saul which prompted negative thought and action in him. Relegating a Sitting King to the back because of a seventeen year old boy’s victory isn’t right. Those words, because of over joy, brought enmity between the King and David. When we are expressing joy we need to control our emotions and words in order not injure others. That song then, led to lost of many lives in Israel between the men of David and supporters of King Saul. Although, the word wasn’t targeted at anyone but we need to taste our words before spilling them. King Saul saw it as an embarrassment to him and sought ways to kill David. Watch your words to others and towards yourself. What you are saying, will it damage or build others? Think before speaking.

Good Day and God bless you.
