What the Bible Has To Say About Speaking God's Word

Psalm 103:20

Deuteronomy 18:18
The wise in heart will be called understanding, and sweetness of speech increases persuasiveness. The heart of the wise instructs his mouth and adds persuasiveness to his lips.

He who winks his eyes does so to devise perverse things; he who compresses his lips brings evil to pass.

"For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."
Matthew 12:34, 36-37
