Who Owns Our Words?

Psalms 12:4 KJV
Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

Only the proud and ungodly believe their lips, their words belong to them.

Godly people understand that every word spoken belongs to:
  • Those who hear them
  • Those who will hear of them and ultimately
  • To God
 We are our brother's keeper. Our lives are interconnected with every other. Those who lived hundreds and even thousands of years ago still influence our lives through our:
  • Culture
  • Habits and
  • History

  • Those who hid in times of trouble influence us through their lack of influencing their world
  • Those who took up arms either for or against a position influence our world positions today
  • Those who spoke as well as those who refused to speak still speak.


To view our words as anything less than the property of humanity and accountable before God is irresponsible and ungodly.
