CHANNEL DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR JUNE 21,2022 (THE PROUD TONGUE)
TUESDAY: JUNE 21ST 2022
TOPIC : THE PROUD TONGUE
Text: (Psalm 12 vs. 1 – 5)
God appreciates the faith speaker but pull down the proud speaker. We are in a world where mouth is abused and tongues are out of control. A proud man is so ambitious in his own eyes. Tells himself all he could do by his strength. Let your boast be in the Lord. Let your brag be in the Lord. This is exactly why the Psalmist said in verse 2 of Psalm 34 saying, “My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad; and then in Psalm 44 vs. 8 it says, “In God we boast all the day long, and prove thy name forever”. Nothing gladdens God like a man who takes complete solace in Him. He is ever dependable and glorious God. He is all sufficient by Himself. He is ever dependable by Himself and His grace is beyond control, His help is without bounds for those that continuously trust in Him. I will prosper above measure because I trust in the Lord, no form of impossibility shall hold me down because I trust in the Lord. I will handle kingdom wealth as long as the Lord is on the throne! Oh yes, my marriage and spouse shall not fail because our confidence is in the Lord. With utterance like this you grab the doings of the Lord. Speak the word of faith, speak the word of a believer and trust solely in the Lord Almighty. To trust in the Lord is to be like Him and dwell in him and He in you all places and in all realms. Today’s scripture in verse 3 shows us the place of God towards a proud man. “The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:” He cuts them off that they could not speak what they have spoken in the past. Glory to God.
