July 6, Morning
Let your speech be always with grace.
[Col.4:6]
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear. ■ Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. ■ A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. ■ By thy words thou shalt be justified. ■ The tongue of the wise is health.
[Prov.25:11,12 | Eph.4:29 | Matt.12:35 | Matt.12:37 | Prov.12:18]
They that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.
[Mal.3:16]
If thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth. ■ Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, ... see that ye abound in this grace also.
[Jer.15:19 | II Cor.8:7]
