They carry the same power

 Proverbs  18:21 "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."


Hi, let's talk. Have you ever thought of why people are sometimes more sensitive to evil words than good words? For example, if some people are told "God bless you", or " it is well", there seems to be a casual response like "Yeah, its one of those things again🙄", but if for any reason those same people are told "Things are not fine with you", you definitely would almost see a fight there😀. I remember one service I was in many years ago in a Church, the Pastor said " I tell you, you all are blessed", the members were so casual in their "Amen", then the Pastor went outside the Tent-hall Church and said with the Microphone "according to Malachi 2:3, you are cursed", my goodness, I have never heard such shouts of " I am blessed" from people before😀. The shout almost brought the Tent roof down😅. Now, that's on a lighter note, words are powerful , of any kind, the power is not in whether it's good or bad, the power is in the tongue. If negative words are taken seriously, positive words should be taken seriously as well. You must take out time to consciously speak good words to your life, and when you are told "God bless you", you receive it passionately as one who receives great spoils. Words of any kind carry the same power. God bless you, do have a great day ahead.😀

PLB Editorial- Cheers 🍻 to life!

Jesus, while speaking to listeners in John 6 talked of them eating his flesh and drinking his blood and how this would forever quench their hunger and thirst. Most of the people who heard this couldn't receive it, it seemed as if Jesus was trying to initiate them into some cult where they'd all be required to be cannibals. Yet Jesus, unapologetic as He always was didn't even try to break it down to their understanding, instead He said "those who hear and learn from my Father come to me". On that day some of His disciples left Him, citing how His teaching and doctrine was too controversial and hard to take. Howbeit none from the popular 12 left. Fast forward to 1Corinthians11:24 and Paul is reiterating the events of the Jesus' last supper with His disciples as He received it from God. Jesus used those words again "this is my body" and "this is the cup of the new testament in my blood" and required of us to break and eat and also to drink. ...

Going on to know Him

People easily judge other people when they don't know them. We all may be guilty of this. A Lotta times, we stereotype people by how they look, their dressing and outward mannerisms ever before we hear them speak. I have been shocked many times of how guilty I've been with this. The most recent of such a person I nearly badly stereotyped turned out to be such an incredible person, so different and special in her way and she helped me in many beautiful ways such that we became pretty cool friends in the space of just a few months but this was the same lady I almost thought was way away from my type of friends. We've all made such mistakes so don't look at me that way😶😇. When we were done with the project that brought us together, I offered to take us to an icecream spot- it would probably be the last time we were seeing so it was my way of saying "thanks". There I told her how I had felt about her when I first saw her and she was somewhat unsurprised and sa...
