It's Okay To Speak Up With Your Good & True Intention

September 25, 2022

Voicing out yourself when you know your limitation and understand that others have will and the Lord's for them is setting up our healthy boundaries on how to speak our truth, while giving grace to others about their own voice & opinion, doing it with politeness and firmness if needed.

God gave us mouth and tongues, they are gifts from above, in fact we call it as parts of the body of Christ, we are allowed to use it in order to live our highest purpose of being the Christlike citizens here in the land.

Speaking up most when you are not rude or arrogant is not a crime, it's okay to voice out. Slandering, malicious gossips, false accusation to your neighbors are some of what Jesus considered as spiritual crimes. The good news is that you can ask for forgiveness about it and let the grace of God change your hearts or minds.

Even Christ rebuke the voice of the devil or His adversary when He was in the wilderness & we should copy it using the seed of Christ in us, with guidance of the Holy Spirit He gave us.

FILTER THE WORDS YOU HEAR & THAT WHICH ARE ROOTING IN YOUR HEARTS, IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY

When others speak either from their self-controlled, fair or unconscious opinions about me or others, it's my responsibility to filter my mind and heart of what to believe and plant in me hearing those words. Whichever is not of the Lord, I let Him prune me.

It's my responsibility to listen and discern God's voice over the words of lies and deceptions that I hear, that sometimes are hurftul, unpeaceful, hateful and not of Jesus. Let it go. Do not let it get rooted in you.

It's not what is outside of us that make us unclean, of what we wear or eat or hear but of what comes out of our mouth.

We became unclean by what comes out of us, by what we speak and think Jesus said. The good thing about it is that we can change it in God's grace.

Qouting Mark 7: 14 Again Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand this. 15 Nothing outside a person can defile them by going into them. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles them.” Source

It's important to mind Philippians 4:8 and wearing the helmet of salvation and the MIND OF CRISTO, the sound mind so we could have protections against evil words even though it doesn't defile us.

Do not hold grudges so it won't hold of us and spread like a virus & multiply.

We empower and encourage you to speak up with your truth and politeness according to your pure conscience, regardless of your gender, race, nationalities, ages and more.

Even in throwing jokes or opinions could be an honoring gesture, not malicious and adding empathy on it is a plus as we would like to be treated that way too.

I personally not required and force anyone to speak to me with "po" or "opo" (Filipino culture of showing respect- but when done against my will and bad conscience I believe is not fine, even if it's pronounced) especially that we are already adults but in some areas they forcely do that. In my point of view when it is done with love, honor and respect regardless of saying po/opo or not, then voice it out. I do not force anyone to do so.

A disciplanary action right away of those in authority without listening to the person's reason, balancing and discerning and without applying love base on Jesus' teaching is senseless, the bible said that the religion of such person is not religion at all. Even Prophet Paul in his way of teaching allows grace period of once or twice. Things upgrade and so do us, as we adjust to more revelations and teachings from heaven.

As we evolve with the Holy Spirit guiding us, there are things we unlearn, learn and adopt into.

Communicating with good intentions and expressing yourself uniquely is better than hiding in things you really don't want to do and forced to do.

Use your tongues to speak Philippians 4:8 and other lifting and encouraging words, use your mind to think of the same, avoid belittling yourself even in thoughts and you will save more energy to create the life you imagine to build.

Use your imagination and bring out those ideas into action and let your words build your life more and on your will share those encouraging words to other people too. Your tongues are fires for good life, let words of empowerment spread more than the "false fires of toxic viruses".

Peace.

IN YOUR DARKNESS LET THERE BE LIGHT!
