The speaking on the topic the tongue is sharper than his word it's not supposed to be a word that will lead you astray it is supposed to be a word that will heal you because as we all know there is power in the tongue and whatever we speak about our lives especially positively or negatively affects us in one way or the other you speak unto yourself what you want to be.
This particular sentence has been used especially in churches you would hear pastors who would preach and they would use this exact line the tongue is sharper than a sword in their own definition there only trying to tell you that the word of God says that what so ever you speak upon yourself comes to play in your life God made us to know that there is power in our spoken words all the miracles that he did were done through spoken with that came to life.
And down to our parents I will believe that most of us have encountered this particular word in our various houses maybe in our interaction with our siblings or parents, people who are living with us how you will act when you're angry and what you see out of anger is enough to destroy someone without you causing any physical harm to them your words alone can demoralize and individual and make them feel less of themself .
Most times it makes some people want to even commit suicide because of what people say to them how the meaning they are words are, so at all times we have to be conscious of what we speak it's required that you sit down and think about your words no matter how fast it is take time to think about you with and know how it's going to make the other person feel when you create them because people understand things in many ways you don't expect them to understand the way you say this they might take it too seriously and it will be detrimental to them.
Then coming down to the society the tongue is sharper than his word can either be healing or leading us as three in the way we deal with individuals that will meet in our daily activities for example you enter a bus from particular destination to another and they have a clash with the conductor and that day you didn't wake up from the right side of your bed and the decide to pour out your fustration onto this person who is possible trying to make an honest living at that point your words are not healing they would live them as three because most of the people are going to a lot some smoke and some drink whatever you say to them might trigger them to attack you or beat you up and that is something bad for you so at this point it's not having a positive effect if the rather having a negative effect.
So we should choose wisely our choices of words around people because just as we know there is power in the tongue and to parents who would always abuse their children verbally you would see a child who is probably not doing well in school and you be like you will never end up well ,so this is how you'll be doing you say a lot of things that the meaning to that child.
I'm not really the over spiritual person but sometimes familiar spirits pick up this things and they use it against this children you would see them they will never get past a certain stage in life not of their own doing but because they are parents out of anger or whatever it is you call african mother lifestyle.
so please as parents learn to always be positive over our children learn to speak over them with positivity let's keep this thing at the back of our mind that it is better that you punished that child than using word's that will affect their self esteem going to affect the way to affect the confidence and positive and do the punishment and correction the right way.
So to get to the summary of everything the tongue is sharper than its word is either healing or leading and stray depending on the timing and circumstances which it is used in so in whichever one you find yourself always try to be on the positive side always try to be on the healing side and make good choices of your words before you talk to people you don't know what they are going through and you don't know what your words like due to them in my hot them more or it's my encourage them.
Always try to be the one that makes people smile even on bad days thank you.
