Do you want to really live? Would you love to live a long, happy life? Watch your mouth. Every one of you is important. Every one of you, your words carry weight. The Bible says in the book of wisdom (Proverbs): “Life and death” “is in the power” “of the tongue.” A lot depends on this because this is the mark of royalty! You’re not an ordinary Christian.
You are a Christian with a different spirit! The Lord gave you that authority and gift to speak and it happens. So guard what you speak! I have a question to ask all of you, and this is the
question. Ready? “Do you want to really live? Would you love to live a long, happy life?” This is from the Bible. I love this translation because it brings out the Hebrew. In the King James, it says, “Do you love life and see many days?” Amen. “Do you want to really live? Would you love to live a long, happy life?” It’s in the Bible, amen.
How many of you like that? Angels taking notes… All those at home… You should be here. The first condition if you want a long, happy life, you must attend physically, amen? So what is the condition? Keep on reading. It says, “Come children, Listen to me. I’ll teach you,” this is how it starts, “what it means to fear the LORD.
Do you want to really live? Would you love to live a long, happy life? Then make sure you don’t speak evil words or use deceptive speech. Turn away from evil and do what is right. Strive for peace and promote it.” Notice it begins with, “Children.” The Father is talking to you. I want to teach you the fear of the Lord.
