Proverbs 18:21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life].(AMP)
So many people misunderstand this portion of scripture.
They think that the POWER is in death and life, so they ignorantly use their tongue carelessly and this has been the primary cause of the mess they are in right now.
The bible says that death and life are in the power of the tongue.
Notice that the power here is in the tongue.
Child of God, mind what you speak for it determines life and death.
If you sow the seed of death, you will reap death.
If you sow the seed of life, you will reap life in abundance.
I once heard a certain woman verbally fighting with her husband and she said to him "Laba embwa eno" meaning " Look at this dog"
You see, she did not know that she was planting a bad seed in her husband.
When she called him a dog, he began sleeping around with different women: thats what dogs exactly do.
Dogs don't settle with one wife , and mind you they do zero grazing.
Dogs bark at any pretty gal , they are most active at night.
Despite the fact that he / she has pissed you off, get to the place of wisdom and plant a seed of life by speaking good , not evil!!!
Have a fruitful day!

Matthew 12:36-37
But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.(KJV)
