“WRONG WAY”



“STICKS AND STONES”From WithinOur Daily Prayer Take control of what I say, O?Lord, and guard my lips.Psalm 141:3 (NLT)33?“Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.?(Now he is addressing the Pharisees.) 34?You brood of vipers,?how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks?what the heart is full of. 35?A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.?36?But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken.?37?For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.” Matthew 12:34-37 (NIV)The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Jeremiah 17:9 (NIV)THINGS ENTER THE HEART:Without our PERMISSION. - These things are UNCONTROLLED CIRCUMSTANCES.What do I do with a hurt heart?- RECOGNIZE it. - REACH out for help and healing. - REPLACE it with hope.With our PERMISSION.- These things are CONTROLLED CHOICES. - We choose our EXPERIENCES and ENTERTAINMENT.Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverbs 4:23 (NIV)What you FIX your thoughts on will FILL your heart.What FILLS your heart will FLOW from your mouth.And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Philippians 4:8 (NLT)What is the DIET of your heart?I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. Psalm 119:11 (NIV) ................
