Hello CHRISTIAN Men – WORDS Matters: Keep Speaking GRACIOUS WORDS To Your Wife And Other Women Out THERE In Your Life!
“You are SNARED by THE WORDS OF YOUR MOUTH; you are TAKEN by THE WORDS OF YOUR MOUTH” Proverbs 6:2/NKJV.
“HOLD FAST the FORM of SOUND WORDS, which thou hast heard of me, in FAITH and LOVE which is in Christ Jesus. 14 That GOOD THING which was committed unto thee KEEP by the Holy Ghost which DWELLETH in us” 2 Timothy 1:13-14.
Are you a godly spirited and hearted man? And if YES, are you speaking gracious WORDS toward others, especially towards your wife and the women about you? Or you are childish loosed mouthed boy-man who speaks some OUTRAGEOUS and DEPRAVED words to your wife and other women that are out THERE about your life sphere? Have you ever thought that as a man that WORDS MATTERS and any OUTRAGEOUS, DEMEANING and DEROGATORY words are very much unnecessary no matter the level of elemental things that THE she woman must have done? Do you know or realise that you are the CUSTODIAN of what you say – be it good or evil, especially as a Christian man? Do know for sure, that it’s out of the NURSERY and NURSED WORDS in your hearts, that your mouth speaks – be it the good or evil.
“For every TREE is KNOWN by his own FRUIT. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 A GOOD MAN OUT OF THE GOOD TREASURE OF HIS HEART BRINGETH FORTH THAT WHICH IS GOOD; and an EVIL man out of the EVIL treasure of his HEART bringeth FORTH that which is EVIL: FOR OF THE ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART HIS MOUTH SPEAKETH” Luke 6:44-45.
As I picture Jesus Christ this morning and moment, the author and finisher of our FAITH in God, I could recall over and over again in SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT how He speaks and answers to many matters that would have made Him to have an outburst [Hebrews 12:2; Hebrews 1:1-4]. The graciousness and gracefulness of His choice words calms down matters and send the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay for the good of OTHERS about Him. Even at a very temperamental point of testing of His life, He was gracious to the end.
“Hereafter I WILL NOT TALK MUCH WITH YOU: for the PRINCE of this world cometh, and HATH NOTHING in me” John 14:30.
“The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and TEMPTING desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven . . .” Matthew 16:1-4/[Mathew 19:3; Matthew 22:35; Mark 8:11; Mark 10:2; Luke 11:16; John 8:6].
“And ALL BARE HIM (JESUS CHRIST) WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED out of his MOUTH. And THEY SAID, is not THIS Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22/Emphasis Mine.
And as one privileged under God to Pastor and Shepherd in His grace and BLESSEDNESS, hearing from women how we men speaks to them, especially our wives and women’s about us in a demeaning and derogatory way is becoming appalling in everyway on each and every given day. Just because we can’t see eyes to eyes on some COMMON issues, makes me wonder if we sincerely do understand when the scripture says we share the same common enabling grace to do life on earth and live godly toward God the Father in Christ Jesus stead. WORDS MATTERS, hence, every man especially should seek for WISDOM on how and when to speak, especially when addressing your wife or other women.
“WALK in WISDOM toward them that are without, redeeming the time. 6 Let your SPEECH be alway with GRACE, SEASONED with salt, that ye may KNOW how ye OUGHT to ANSWER every man” Colossians 4:5-6.
” . . . 7 Likewise, ye husbands, DWELL with them ACCORDING to KNOWLEDGE, giving HONOUR unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as BEING HEIRS TOGETHER OF THE GRACE OF LIFE; THAT YOUR PRAYERS BE NOT HINDERED. 8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: BUT CONTRARIWISE BLESSING; KNOWING THAT YE ARE THEREUNTO CALLED, THAT YE SHOULD INHERIT A BLESSING. 10 For he that will LOVE life, and SEE GOOD days, let him REFRAIN HIS TONGUE FROM EVIL, and HIS LIPS that they SPEAK NO GUILE: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is AGAINST them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:1-12.
More so, it’s a great act of wisdom to know and understand especially when having differences, to separate ISSUES on discusses from the PERSON. THE ISSUES IN DISCUSSIONS AND THE PERSON’S ARE NOT SAME. So when you have conflict in ISSUES, don’t MAKE it into a PERSON’S attacking, name calling and such like – simply because the common issue on discuss have not been resolved to anyone satisfactory desire.
It’s my earnest passion that you may ALWAYS remember this concept explained in context below from today FORWARD, in moving toward an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory for the good and healthy relationship:
“SMALL HEARTED MINDS TALK ABOUT PERSONS, BIG HEARTED WISE MINDS TALK ISSUES IN CONTEXT”
It’s not in my place to be specific, but if you think you are a GODLY man that eschew EVIL WORDS from your MOUTH and not as a CHILDISHLY boy-man that’s acting out; and can you be mindful how you speak to your wife and the God given women about your life both in private and public settings for WORDS matters in God’s kingdom affairs for the godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
Therefore, I plead with you today to SPEAK wellness and WHOLENESS in order to LIVE well and whole. You can live healthily healthy and whole by your WORDS for your own self good and goodness, and for all about you too – be they male and female – and more especially, to your wife and women within your reach.
Have an awesome and blessed day with GRACIOUS WORDS as Lord Jesus Christ in His stead, in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“And ALL BARE HIM (JESUS CHRIST) WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not THIS Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22/Emphasis Mine.
“For even HEREUNTO were ye CALLED: because Christ also suffered for us, LEAVING us an EXAMPLE, that ye should FOLLOW his steps: 22 who did no sin, neither was GUILE FOUND IN HIS MOUTH: 23 who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously” 1 Peter 2:21-23.
“For every TREE is KNOWN by his own FRUIT. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 A GOOD MAN OUT OF THE GOOD TREASURE OF HIS HEART BRINGETH FORTH THAT WHICH IS GOOD; and an EVIL man out of the EVIL treasure of his HEART bringeth FORTH that which is EVIL: FOR OF THE ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART HIS MOUTH SPEAKETH” Luke 6:44-45.
“A man’s BELLY shall be SATISFIED with the FRUIT of his MOUTH; and with the INCREASE of his LIPS shall he be FILLED. 21 DEATH and LIFE are in the POWER of the TONGUE: and they that LOVE it shall EAT the FRUIT thereof. 22 Whoso FINDETH a wife FINDETH a good thing, and OBTAINETH favour of the Lord” Proverbs 18:20-22.
” . . . 7 Likewise, ye husbands, DWELL with them ACCORDING to KNOWLEDGE, giving HONOUR unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as BEING HEIRS TOGETHER OF THE GRACE OF LIFE; THAT YOUR PRAYERS BE NOT HINDERED. 8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: BUT CONTRARIWISE BLESSING; KNOWING THAT YE ARE THEREUNTO CALLED, THAT YE SHOULD INHERIT A BLESSING. 10 For he that will LOVE life, and SEE GOOD days, let him REFRAIN HIS TONGUE FROM EVIL, and HIS LIPS that they SPEAK NO GUILE: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is AGAINST them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:1-12.
“And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a GODLY seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal TREACHEROUSLY against the WIFE of his youth” Malachi 2:15.
“And the TONGUE is a fire, a WORLD of iniquity: so is the TONGUE among our members, that it DEFILETH the whole body, and SETTETH on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. 7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: 8 but the TONGUE can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9 Therewith BLESS we God, even the Father; and therewith CURSE we men, which are made after the similitude of God. 10 Out of the same MOUTH proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be” James 3:6-10.
