THERE IS POWER IN THE SPOKEN WORD James 3 sums this up. 3: 8-9 but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father and with it we curse men, who have been made in the image of the Father. Out of the same mouth comes praise and cursing.

THE CONSEQUENCES OF BELIEF If you accept a Belief You reap a Thought. If you sow a Thought You reap an Attitude. If you sow and Attitude You reap an Action. If you sow an Action You reap a Habit. If you sow a Habit You reap a Character If you sow a Character You reap a Destiny.
