Matthew 12:36, 37 "But I say unto you, that every idle words that men shall speak, They shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. for by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned."
First off, what does the word IDLE mean: of no account, useless, vain, unprofitable and thoughtless. Men, how many times have you said to your wife things that were useless; words that we soon regret as soon as they are spoken? I lost track along time ago on how many words I said that were unprofitable to her.
I would like to tell you about a word that we should take out of our vocabulary, and that word is DIVORCE. We are so quick to lash back and say that word. Lets face it, society has made it so simple for us to get one. Just look in your local paper, its right there.
I have been in your shoes, and have said it. But that is one word I had to eliminate from my vocabulary. Words are either going to make or break a marriage. Often the only difference between a happy or troubled home are the words that are said.
If you have said idle words, the Lord wants you to confess them and ask for forgiveness. We must all stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ. Let our words be JUSTIFIED and not CONDEMNING. In closing, pleasant words will produce a sweet and healthy home.
