HOLY TRACK OUTREACH MINISTRIES 

(Pastor Djan)

ON THE TONGUE 

WE WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT OUR TONGUES HAVE DONE TO OURSELVES AND OTHERS.

 MOSES RECALLED AND HIS MISSION TERMINATED FOR CARELESS SPEECH AND ACT.

Psalms 106:32-33 (KJV) 32 They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes: 33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

Numbers 20:10,11 (KJV)

10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? 11 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also

12 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.

James 3:1-2 (KJV) THE BEST PRECAUTION

1 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. 

2 For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.

Psalm 39:1 (KJV).  

1 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

Psalm 141:3 (KJV)

3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.

Job 38:2 (KJV). IGNORANCE IS EVIL SOMETIMES  

2 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?

Job 40:4,5 (KJV)

4 Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth. 5 Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.

Job 42:7,8 (KJV). TRUTH MATTERS. THEY WERE SINCERE FRIENDS BUT THEIR COUNSEL WAS BASED ON FALSE PREMISES. (Also James 3:1)  

7 And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me [the thing that is] right, as my servant Job hath. 8 Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job.

Genesis 30:1 (KJV). SHE CONFESSED A BAD THING AND IT HAPPENED  

1 And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.

Genesis 35:16-18 (KJV)

16 And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour. 17 And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also. 18 And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, for she died that she called his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin.

2Ki. 7. THESE MEN DIED BECAUSE OF THEIR MOUTH

1 ¶ Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.

2 ¶ Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

2 Kings 7:17 (KJV) And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.

2 Samuel 1:5-15 (KJV) 5 And David said unto the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son be dead? 6 And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him. 7 And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called unto me. And I answered, Here [am] I. 8 And he said unto me, Who [art] thou? And I answered him, I [am] an Amalekite. 9 He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life [is] yet whole in me. 10 So I stood upon him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that [was] upon his head, and the bracelet that [was] on his arm, and have brought them hither unto my lord. 11 Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that [were] with him: 12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. 13 And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence [art] thou? And he answered, I [am] the son of a stranger, an Amalekite. 14 And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the LORD'S anointed? 15 And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, [and] fall upon him. And he smote him that he died.

2 Samuel 1:16 (KJV) And David said unto him, Thy blood [be] upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain the LORD'S anointed.

GOD HAS TO SHUT THEM UP BEFORE THEY DO DAMAGES WITH THEIR MOUTH

Gen 31:24. And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said unto him, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad

Lk. 1: 20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season

SPEAKING AGAINST DIGNITIES AND JUDGING OUT OF IGNORANCE 

Jude 1:8-19 (KJV) 8 Likewise also these [filthy] dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. 

9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. 

10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. 

11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. 

12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds [they are] without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; 

13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. 

14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, 

15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard [speeches] which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. 

16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. 

17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; 

18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

 19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

Psalm 50:19-21. GOD EXPRESSES HIS PAIN OVER SLANDERING 

19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.

20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.

21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.

22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.

                                         

                                  CONSEQUENCES.

1. OUR TONGUES CAN STOP GOD FROM GIVING US THE PROPHETIC GIFT. (Ja.3:12)

2. OUR TONGUES ASSASSINATE OTHER PEOPLE’S CHARACTER 

3. OUR TONGUES DISCOURAGE OTHERS 

4. OUR TONGUES DIVIDE PEOPLE AND SET THEM AT WAR WITH ONE ANOTHER

5. OUR TONGUES MISLEAD PEOPLE 

6. OUR TONGUES CURSE OTHERS TO DOOM: OUR KIDS, SPOUSES AND THOSE WE HATE

7. OUR TONGUES BRING CURSES, BURDENS AND JUDGEMENT UPON OUR OWN SELVES

8. OUR TONGUES EXPOSE US TO THE JUDGEMENT OF GOD WHEN WE COULD HAVE BEEN PARDONED 

9. OUR TONGUES DISRESPECT GOD’S IMAGE AND JUDGEMENT BECAUSE WE THINK HE CHOSE A WRONG MAN OR HAS NOT CHOSEN HIM AT ALL

10. OUR TONGUES HAVE LIED AND GOTTEN OTHER PEOPLE KILLED

11. OUR TONGUES REDUCE OUR ANOINTING AND HINDER OUR SPIRITUAL GROWTH 

12. JESUS SAID TO INSULT YOUR NEIGHBOR AS A FOOL PUTS YOU IN DANGER OF HELL FIRE Mtt. 5:22

13. JESUS ALSO SAID WE SHALL ACCOUNT FOR EVERY IDLE WORD THAT WE SPEAK MTT.12:36

14. Prov 6:2 (KJV) THOU ARE SNARED WITH THE WORDS OF THY MOUTH, THOU ART TAKEN WITH THE WORDS OF THY MOUTH

JESUS POINTS OUT THE ROOT CAUSE. Mk 7:15-23

15. There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.

20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.

21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

                                                        PRAYER

Dear Eternal and Righteous Father;

I will never know much damages I have caused others by my tongue,

Neither will I know how much I have dishonored your sovereignty and holiness by using my tongue against a fellow human made in your image,

Nor will I know how much setbacks or destructions I have brought to my own self.

I am sorry. Forgive me all my sins and restore those I have destroyed if it is not too late.

I now understand that the source is from my heart. Purge me, prune me, renew within me a clean heart . Restore me . Holy Spirit, make me a vessel that you can use for your glory that the Father and the Son are glorified through my deliverance. 

  Help me to take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: And to keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.  

Thank you Father for hearing my prayer. In Jesus name . Amen 

FROM NOW ON SPEAK LOVE, SPEAK LIFE OR SPEAK POSITIVE IN ALL SITUATIONS TO OTHERS OR YOURSELF.
