Let Good Words Proceed From Our Mouth (Ephesians 4:29-31)

“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and gossip be put away from you, with all malice.”(Ephesians 4:29-31)

We, the Christians, must become aware of many sins that we got used to commit without realizing how bad their consequences on our lives, our communities, and our churches. Unfortunately, throughout time we have become too comfortable with them to the point of our own detriment. If we did receive the indwelling of Jesus in us we must scrutinize our attitudes, behavior, and make the necessary changes to honor and glorify Jesus in our lives. We never need to become too comfortable with sins but hate sin even those ones that we categorize as small sins. Instead, it is vey essential to be alert to weed them out of our lives.

Gossip is one of these sins that we got used to commit and shut up the voice of the Holy Spirit in us. It is incredibly a common sin within churchy circles. Although the word of God condemns gossiping, many believers continue to gossip for fun, excitement, or pleasure. Saint Paul is advising us to not let any unwholesome talk come out of our mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. He continues to specify the sins that we should not commit like gossiping. Instead of gossiping about others, we build them up.

In the book of Proverb, chapter sixteen, we read, “A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends” (Proverbs 16:28.) So we should never gossip about others cause it will only lead to troubles.

We all know that If we live in accordance with the sinful flesh, it will be impossible for us to live in accordance with the will of God. We must not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom we were sealed for the day of redemption. Amen.
