Words are powerful. Proverbs 18:21 tells us LIFE and DEATH are in the power of the tongue. It is a small part of the body, yet it can bring about tremendous impact - either for good or for bad.
Last week I spoke on James 3:1-12 for my church's high school youth group, which is a passage all about taming the tongue. I learned SO much from the time I spent prepping this message and wanted to share it with you all here as well. 💛 Comment what stood out to you from this video down below! ✨

Ah James 3 is SO good! What stood out to you most from this passage? 💛

@KarenEstfny 3 года назад

Don't be reactive.

@alexandrazarycka7224 3 года назад

I loved the analogy you used. Good topic and always love your videos!

@son_of_hiskingdom5092 Год назад

oh wow, such a great topic. HARDLY ANYONE TALKS ABOUT IT. for me it is, what you say you steer your ship straight into. That can a blessing or a disaster. Even to a point of tying God's hands so to speak.

@user-wf5my5il9c Год назад

I call it spiritual duct tape. I loved the analogy of fire. It can be used for good or destruction. For today I will speak life over myself and others. Thank you.

@paulmartin7053 Год назад

Working on those areas in my faith I do watch less curse movies more faith content and glorifying our creator amen together amen ✝️☦️🥱✝️🙏🌅✝️🔥🔥

@CateOtanes 3 года назад

This is soooo convicting. As someone who talks a lot without thinking about what I'm about to say, this is very challenging and encouraging. You are so good at communicating this passage well, Kaci. Keep going. Hope your time with the youth went well

James 3- First thing I thought about is how the tongue Is like a wild fire

@kacinicole 3 года назад

Yes such a good analogy for it! 🙌🏼

@joshuajames9625 3 года назад

I've been praying for almost two years for a specific blessing and every time I finish a fasting day or a week and realize that what I've been praying for has been delayed, my faith takes a hit and also my words become more negative. Made me realize that Blessing and cursing is in the power of the tongue and I ought to bridle my tongue, so God can work in me life. Thank you for sharing this!

@carolynbohannon4602 2 года назад

That word perfect in James in greek means mature. I have a 91 year old lady friend i have know for 30 years. And all those years i have never heard her speak one word about another and i have never heard her complain. There are men and women that are mature in Christ. And i thank God every day that she has been in my life. She lives her very love and fear of God. By his grace she has taught me so much. I always say to her.. Just think we have know each other 30 years and then we will be spending eternity together. Thank Lord Jesus. This was a wonder to the point teaching from Gods precious word

@anessarodriguez1320 3 года назад

I was actually just quoting James 3:1 earlier, how James warns that not many should become teachers as they will receive a stricter judgment. The power of the tongue can easily cause one to stumble, even a teacher. It really convicts and warns us to practice what we preach/teach! Not just in possibility of stumbling in words while teaching, but even outside of teaching! I love James. It really puts into perspective how we should apply the word in our lives and not just be hearers only 🙏

A Prayer for Mental Peace Almighty and Everlasting God, countless people are struggling in the recesses of their minds. The stress and anxiety of a consumeristic life have left many of Your children mentally scarred. Once someone has descended into their pit, it is so difficult to claw back out. Father, descend to them. Rescue them from the hopeless pit of mental anguish. Purify their minds and give them a hope that transcends all things. For You, O Lord, are gracious beyond measure. Amen Shalom Hallelujah.

@candacegoldvlogs 2 месяца назад

I watch your videos every morning. You explain things so well, I just love this video so much too. It is something that we all struggle with. I used to burst out in rage and say whatever came to mind (hurting the other person). Recently I started praying about this, I didn’t want to be that person anymore. And I noticed that I don’t talk back anymore. I keep quiet as is someone is holding my tongue. My mind started telling me that I’ve become weak and the other person has control over me however after watching this, I realized that this is somewhat the answer to my prayers. That I don’t react out of anger and I sit quietly to think first before responding.. I am more calm now than ever.

@angelakay8518 Год назад

Oh my goodness! When you described the bible as a mirror that reflects the things we need help fixing...🤯That blew my mind! I often read the bible and feel this guilt because "I'm not doing this right," or "I could certainly improve here." But it's not meant to be taken that way. Wow, thank you so much for sharing this! God bless you!

@jameselam8263 3 года назад

What a great message! This is just one of those things we are all guilty of doing in some way at some point. I almost felt scold by your message but it was in such a kind motherly way. For me its complaining or saying something negative when its better just to let it go. Which is something i've dealt with recently. I really like the book of James. Thank you so much for this message!

@amber23ledoux Год назад

Talk about conviction!! I was thinkin about the words I was speaking today and how I was ashamed and then this pops up

@natalielynn7512 2 года назад

Thank you so much for seeking Jesus and sharing what you find in His Word! I just found your channel and it is already such a blessing to me! Keep going, girl! You are impacting God's Kingdom in such a beautiful, fruitful way! My biggest take away is refusing to misrepresent someone's character. I am not God so I do not know the heart or intentions of another person. By gossiping, I am playing the role of the judge, and that is not my place. Gossiping is misrepresenting people. By refusing to gossip, I am honoring people the way I want them to honor me!

@mariad3011 Год назад

Great message! So hard to NOT gossip with friends and family!

@theworldistheworld Год назад

Thank you for this video, I've read this passage from James before in the bible. I've never seen someone describe it this well before and explain the reasoning for example lying, boasting, spreading gossip and not keeping my tongue in check. I've been battling with drug addiction all my life and I've used my tongue in bad ways, just to get my next fix.

@modelingmotherhood Год назад

You have such a gift for sharing the gospel. Your youth are so lucky that you speak into them with these verses and discussion. How I wish I would have had such a role model in my early life. Would have avoided many mistakes and sins ! God bless you and thank you for sharing your wisdom on RU-vid.

@anne.8830 2 года назад

My biggest take away from what I just watched was that, as christians and followers of Christ, our words are to make people and not to break them, our words are to bring them to God and not drive them away from God Thanks Kaci❤️

@vassooramanjooloo5001 3 года назад

Amen !! Praise GOD !! Beautifully put together 👍 So much clarity and understanding in your sayings My Friend .. Yes, HIS HOLY SPIRIT alone can help us to subdue our tongues,only by speaking in tongues ... And as HIS Righteousness Too in our lives,will empower us to bridle our tongues .. The bible says " I will guard my ways,lest I sin with my tongues..I will restrain my mouth with a muzzle,while The Wicked Are before me " ( Psalms 39:1 ) GOD Bless You.. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🔥🔥

@jimenacarrasco8719 3 года назад

Loved this video! First of all, I want to say that you explained this wonderfully and the video was amazing. It made me realize how powerful words can be and the story you said about the feathers and how the kid wasn't going to be able to pick them all up, that just hit me because you don't know the damage your words can do and how other people may interpret them. You don't know what everyone is going through and you won't always know if what you said affected someone else or not so you can't fix it.

@lauraramosdelgado 2 года назад

Thank you for your teachings Kaci. I appreciate them so much because you speak in a way that connects with a younger audience. I've been reading the bible lately and trying to put away some time for God because when I do I feel better, more at peace, less hectic, more grounded. Loving your channel! Keep up the good work.

@laurenmoquette Год назад

The fire and wild animal analogies are literally so good because I like to keep those analogies in my mind when something happens I can imagine myself literally turning down a fire lol

@thangopapheya9057 Год назад

Thank you soo much🙏 I still remember this short proverbs that reads "words kills, words give life, whether fruition or poision you choose." Sometimes there are situation that i just wanna spit out and boom in their face. But, i question myself 'do this satisfy?' and i keep it for myself. To be beautiful is having a broken heart. I'm pursuing my Theological journey since last two years, I've two more years to go. Please remember me in your prayers. And yes, wishing you a Happy New year to you and your love ones. God bless you🙏

@Kittycat777cat Год назад

This is so crazy I was reading these verses on my own this morning and thinking about taming my tongue, then this video came up after I’ve been asking God for very clear cut directions. I thought that was clear already but then you mentioned Abigail and Abby which is my name and it couldn’t be more clear that I needed to hear this and pray on this 🤍 thank you for this lesson

@adonijah2190 Год назад

This is something i needed to learn and the lord has graciously corrected like any father correct's his children that he loves dearly. There is many passages in the bible, which tell us to always speak life and never death. But in Eccelesiastes 10 verse 12- 14 says " Words from the mouth of the wise are gracious, but fools are consumed by their own lips. At the beginning their words are folly; at the end they are wicked madness - and fools multiply words. And in Eccelesiastes 10 verse 20 it says " Don't revile in king even in you're thoughts or curse the rich in you're bedroom, because a bird in the sky may carry you're words and a bird on the wing may report what you say. " We have to remember that the voices of the advisory in the courts of heaven who accuse the brethren day and night can use our own words to accuse us in front of our father. The words that the children of god speak are living prophecy, that's why we have to always speak life. If you think there are words that you have spoken that ur a convicted of repenting for, first repent in front of the lord then ask the lord who is also our "advocate" or in other words "lawyer" to have his blood which the scriptures says "speaks better words than ables blood", words like forgiveness, redemption, mercy, grace, or in other words speaks good things on our behalf to speak for you in the courts of heaven and answer any accusations that the enemy is bringing and then come into agreement with the testimony of the sprinking of the lords blood, and ask that the lord blood which is speaking for u to bring u into remembrance in front of the father, this will silence the accuser because he has no respond to the lords blood. Ask the lord like i have done to put a clamp over ur mouth so all words and thoughts come into abidance with christ, speak life and have a blessed day.😀

@TimeForTola 3 года назад

For me the biggest take away was point 3 - let it point you to Jesus. I think for me a lot of time when I regret my words I overplay them and dwell in the past but I have to remember that Jesus doesn't dwell in our past, he wants to change our future!

@katyaoleynichenko6953 3 года назад

Something that I took away from this video and was convicted about us to not talk about others because I used to do that with one person in my church and hopefully know I won’t do it even though it just bugs me how much and how rude the person was toward me several times

Wonderful message Kaci! This really resonates with me because for the past 1 1/2 months, I have been having some problems with a couple co-workers who are disrespectful towards me, talk bad to and about me because they just don’t like me and have put a target on my back. I’ve done a good job at taming my tongue throughout this, despite how hard it may be, but this is a good reminder to continue to stay strong and not give into temptation.
