They’re Only Words, Psalm 12

with Michael Easley
Originally recorded at Cedarville Unversity in 2008, Michael teaches through Psalm 12 with a poignant reminder of the power of words—God's, others', and our own.

This sermon was originally recorded at Cedarville University in 2008.

 

PSALM 12

For the choir director; upon an eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm of David.

1Help, LORD, for the godly man ceases to be,
For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men.
2They speak falsehood to one another;
With flattering lips and with a double heart they speak.
3May the LORD cut off all flattering lips,
The tongue that speaks great things;
4Who have said, “With our tongue we will prevail;
Our lips are our own; who is lord over us?”
5“Because of the devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy,
Now I will arise,” says the LORD; “I will set him in the safety for which he longs.”

6The words of the LORD are pure words;
As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, refined seven times.
7You, O LORD, will keep them;
You will preserve him from this generation forever.
8The wicked strut about on every side
When vileness is exalted among the sons of men.

 

Unlike men’s words, you can rely on the untarnished word of God.

As believers in Jesus Christ, our words are critical. Others suffer from our evil words. If you’ve suffered from someone’s words, you should know the damage your own words can cause.

As believers in Jesus Christ, our words should be pure and kind and reflect the King.
