James 1:26-27 NASB Walk Thru the Bible Open Reference If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless.
This is pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father, to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
The Vanity of Life
Psalm 39:1 I SAID, "I will guard my ways, That I may not sin with my tongue; I will guard my mouth as with a muzzle, While the wicked are in my presence."
An evening Prayer for Sanctification and Protection
Psalm 141:1-4 O LORD, I call upon Thee; hasten to me! Give ear to my voice when I call to Thee!
May my prayer be counted as incense before Thee; The lifting up of my hands as the evening offering.
Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; Keep watch over the door of my lips.
Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, To practice deeds of wickedness With men who do iniquity; And do not let me eat of their delicacies.
The Tongue Is a Fire
James 3:1-12 LET not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we shall incur a stricter judgment (greater condemnation).
For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well.
Now if we put the bits into the horses' mouth so they may obey us, we direct their entire body as well.
Behold, the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by strong winds, are still directed by a very small rudder, wherever the inclination of the pilot desires.
So also the tongue is a small part of the body, and yet it boasts of great things. Behold, how great a forest is set aflame by such a small fire!
And the tongue is a fire, the vey world of iniquity; the tongue is set among our members as that which defiles the entire body, and sets on fire the coarse of our life, and is set on fire by hell.
For every species of beasts and birds, of reptiles, and creatures of the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by the human race.
But no one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison.
With it we bless our Lord and Father; and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God;
from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way.
Does a fountain send out from the same opening both fresh and bitter water?
Can a fig tree, my brethren, produce olives, or a vine produce figs? Neither can salt water produce fresh.
This is pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father, to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
