The Power of Words

In this sermon from the “Wise Up!” series, we explore James 3 and the profound impact of our words. James warns that teachers, due to their influential role, will be judged more strictly, highlighting the power and responsibility of speech. The sermon emphasizes that our words reveal the condition of our hearts, carrying the potential to build up or destroy. Through vivid imagery, James illustrates the tongue’s disproportionate power and volatility, urging us to seek heart transformation through Jesus to ensure our words reflect His love and truth. Ultimately, the message calls for a surrender to Christ, allowing Him to heal and guide our speech.
