'Power Of The Tongue' Poem by Linda Winchell

No matter what the world may say
Life is NOT short at all.
It’s a journey of many experiences… for all mankind
It will be the longest journey…taken by us all.

God in His divine foreknowledge…purpose and His plan
Has set in place all the provisions needed
For all God’s children….across this land.

In Ezekiel 37…there were a lot of problems
In the valley of “Dry Bones” they were wandering in.
The children of Israel were a mess it seems
Disconnected…disjointed …spiritually dead.

Then God said to Ezekiel
“Speak unto those dry of bones
Heed the words of your Lord! ”
And up from the dead…the bones came alive
Spoken words by the tongue…of God’s sword.

We’ve never seen the righteous forsaken
Or his seed…ever begging for a scrap of bread.
You have to resolve to make life happen
In every adversity…that Satan… places in your head.

The journey is very long my friend
And the problems of life may keep on coming.
But the power of the tongue must keep on professing.
“Hear ye the word of the Lord! ”
The words of your tongue… confessing.
