Grace For You Today!
The Father’s Glory, our Fountain-Head, purifies the well of our hearts!
Scripture Focus
“My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment. For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.”
James 3:1-2, 8 NKJV
The tongue, though small, holds great power. Like a rudder steering a ship, or a bit guiding a horse, it can direct the entire course of life. Yet when left uncontrolled, it becomes a fire, capable of immense destruction. With the same tongue we bless God, and with the same tongue we curse those made in His image.
This reveals a deeper truth: If the fountain is impure, the flow will be mixed—blessing and cursing together.
But here lies our hope!
The Holy Spirit, the Chief Architect of our souls, does not merely restrain the tongue; He reworks the fountain itself. He reshapes the wellspring of our hearts until it overflows with Christ’s life. Out of this Spirit-purified fountain flows blessing, encouragement, and grace.
When the Spirit governs the fountain, the tongue-once untamable- becomes an instrument of life. No longer can bitter and fresh waters flow together; instead, rivers of living water stream forth.
Key Takeaway
• The tongue reveals the state of the heart.
• No man can tame it, but the Holy Spirit transforms the fountain within.
• When the heart is renewed, the mouth speaks only life.
Confession of Faith
I yield my heart to the Holy Spirit, my Fountain-Head and Architect. He reworks my inner well so that my words are pure, life-giving, and full of blessing.
Christ is my righteousness, and out of His abundance my mouth speaks grace.
