Hello my friends and welcome back to the morning mindset. I hope you are ready to get your

0:08.6

mind aligned with the truth of God. Don't forget we have a non-profit organization that

0:14.8

helps people who have real needs in life through financial donations to their cause, to

0:21.8

help them. And you can be a part of that by helping real people across the world meet

0:27.2

their very pressing needs. You can find out more by going to not a needyperson.org. All right,

0:34.9

let's dive in to the book of Proverbs once again. Today we'll be looking at verses 4 and verses

0:41.4

20 and 21. These three verses bring to light the power that wise words can have when spoken

0:51.5

into a situation. Let's look at these verses. Verse 4 says, the words of a man's mouth are

0:57.4

deep waters. The fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook. So do you get the imagery there? There's

1:05.0

1:35.6

wisdom and speaks from that wisdom is a person who is satisfied generally speaking in life because

1:42.9

they know they are injecting good into the circumstances that they're interacting with. Then

1:48.7

finally, in verse 21, it gives us just a broad principle about this issue of what we speak. And

1:54.8

it says, death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat its fruits.

2:04.3

So that's some very interesting imagery. It says, if what comes of our words produces a fruit

2:11.2

that we then are able to eat and be satisfied, it gives us delight to see that our words of wisdom

2:18.6

bring a benefit to someone's life. Now, friends in all of this, I want to just say the obvious,

2:26.9

when we are able to speak words of wisdom into a situation, it not only satisfies us to see

2:35.4

that we've had a part in making the situation come about in a good way, but it also gives life
