Pure mouths

"For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth: Who, when He was reviled, reviled not again; when He suffered, He threatened not; but committed Himself to Him that judgeth righteously"
1Peter 2:22-23

- Jesus is our example! We are to follow in our Lord's steps. When He was persecuted He did not answer back, he did not curse back, He did not complain, He blessed. The Bible said there was no guile found in His mouth. No iniquity came from the mouth of Jesus only blessings, and forgiveness. He did not bite back when He suffered at the hands of the Romans. He blessed and forgave and committed Himself to God.

Oh Lord may we have the same attitude, may our mouths be pure and holy before You. That when we are hurt by someone we will not bite back and complain. That we can have mouths were no corruption comes out, but only blessing. Lord give us pure and sanctified mouths as You had, I love You Jesus, amen.

In His service,
Philip
