I'm sleepy today, so let's get right into the lesson. Continue to keep one another in prayer, thanking God for the victory, and refraining from claiming defeat from the enemy; ALWAYS pray for your desired result, NOT the unfavorable outcome. Do NOT lose sight of God in the midst of adversity, God Bless!

Passage James 3:5-8 (NLT):
"In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire. And the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself. People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison."
Proverbs 26:6-7 says, "Trusting a fool to convey a message is like cutting off one’s feet or drinking poison! A proverb in the mouth of a fool is as useless as a paralyzed leg." I personally find this passage to be quite self explanatory... "A proverb is such a saying popularly known and repeated, usually expressing simply and concretely, though often metaphorically, a truth based on common sense or the practical experience of humankind" (Dictionary.com). In the mouth of a fool, a proverb is like the disfunction of a paralyzed limb; a fool is blinded and deaf by his or her own ignorance, unreceptive to wisdom and incapable of sharing knowledge obtained. So, from the lesson of yesterday, in an event that you encounter an individual's foolery, ignore him or her, do not take their rants seriously or to stoop to his or her level, otherwise, you yourself are no better than he or she.
Prayer of the Day:
Father God we thank you for taming our tongue so that the words of our mouth may always be pleasing in your sight, and will always produce positive and favorable outcomes in every circumstance. Lord we thank you for complete healing that has restored our spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical state of being. We thank you for joyful attitudes in the midst of adversity, cheerful moods in the face of the enemy, peace in our storms, and comfort through our trials. We thank you for your continued protection over each of us individually, our families, our friends, our homes, pets, our modes of transportation, and those homes and families in our surrounding areas. We praise your name, thanking you that our burdens, debts, and obstacles are no longer holding us hostage. We thank you for releasing any form of bondage previously holding us back from a deeper relationship with you, and for giving us the freedom to raise our hands humbly in praise to you. We thank you for the victory over sin, satan, and his demons. In the matchless name of your Son Jesus Christ, we submit our affirmation of faith, Amen!
