Inconsistency of Words | James 3:9-12

Episode Summary:

In this episode, we’re looking at James 3:9-12 and the struggle to keep our words aligned with our faith. Our speech reveals the true state of our hearts, and no amount of willpower can fix the inconsistency—we need God’s transformation. Instead of just recognizing the problem, let’s surrender it to Him and allow the Holy Spirit to refine our hearts so our words reflect Christ.

Scripture:

''With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water? Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh water."
