* Speaker: Pastor 'Lola Owotumi
* Topic: Mischievous Madness (19)
* Text: Proverbs 23:33 →"Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thine heart shall utter perverse things." (KJV)

★ Proverbs 15:2 →"The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness." (KJV) 

* Question: What comes out of your mouth?

★ Proverbs 15:4 →"A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit." (KJV) 

★ Proverbs 16:28 →''A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends." (KJV) 

* You must not use your mouth to sow strife & whispers that separate friends

* 'Whisperers' are deadly poison to be avoided
→ Shut them down when they bring their gossips to you

★ Numbers 12:1-2 →"And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman. And they said, Hath the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses? hath he not spoken also by us? And the LORD heard it."

* God was not happy with Aaron and Miriam (Numbers 12:9-10)

* Unless you repent from gossip and tale bearing, you will be cut off from the congregation of the righteous (Numbers 12:14-15)

☆ Prayer:
"Lord, help me to use my mouth to give you glory 
and edify your people;
May my tongue not lead me into trouble."
