Did you realize that your tongue is the key to bringing your whole personality in line? Proverbs 13:3 says that 'He who guards his lips guards his life, but he who speaks rashly will come to ruin.' Guarding our lips has to be a very high priority if we are to bring glory to our Lord Jesus.

Let me just tell you some of the great benefits of taming your tongue.

I suggested that you choose one area where you know your tongue is out of control and work on that. You can do this through God's Word and prayer and daily commitment, until you see the Spirit of God changing you. The areas to consider working on are criticizing, lecturing, arguing, complaining, and talking too much. Remember, too many words will eventually get you in trouble. Proverbs 10:19 says, 'When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.'

'I can't believe I said that!' Have you ever felt that way? I'm sure I'm not the only one with foot-in-mouth disease. And you know, when you say something you shouldn't say, you can never un-say those words.

Do you find that often your tongue is out of control? In James 3 we are told that if we can control our tongue, we can control our whole body, our entire personality.

I remember meeting a young woman in one of my business seminars who I discovered was a Christian. We began to share a little about ourselves. She told me about her job and her church, but what I heard was a stream of complaining and condemnation.

Would you like to have a promotion at work? How badly do you want it? Well, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego got a promotion, as we see in Daniel 3, but it wasn't easy.

Have you ever had a manager who seemed to be testing you, seeing just how far he or she could go before you break, or perhaps making things tougher for you because you took a Christian stance at work? Well, I want to encourage you to read Daniel 3 again, because that's what happened to Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.

PROGRAM D-6057

Have you noticed that often when you take a big step of faith and declare you are trusting God in a difficult situation, it seems to get worse instead of better? I can think of numerous times when I've gone before the Lord to declare my utter faith in his ability to deliver and totally committed a particular situation to his care. And then to my dismay, it appears to me that instead of honoring my faith and immediately changing my situation, the whole thing looks more hopeless than ever.

I'm sure you know the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, the three young Jewish men who refused to worship the image of gold, which King Nebuchadnezzar had decreed that all should worship. We've heard their story of courage, as they stood true to their convictions and how marvelously God delivered them from the burning furnace. I'd like us to take another look at this incredible story.
