God is a designer. 

            We're His works of art.

This topic, GOSSIP, has been so heavy on my heart lately. In fact i deeply despise any sort of gossip.

The definition of gossip is as follows; idle talk or rumor, especially about the personal or private affairs of others.

What benefit do you gain from speaking on others problems, weakness, failures, etc.? God created us out of love and we are called to love others as we love ourself. In fact, others needs should be put before ours as Christ put us before Himself.

Gossip and slander is not building people up. And its not showing the love that God commands of us. In fact, it's destruction after destruction! It ruins ones reputation and isolates them into a group away from others. And on top of that the one gossiping gains a character flaw of being insincere, untrustworthy, and not genuine.

Regardless of the message being true it just gives the person an ugly trait that cannot go unnoticed. If a person trusted you enough to confide in you their deepest secret and you just air it out how does that make you look. The modern day word for it today is MESSY.

Gossip is the easy way out of solving problems. Right or wrong? Wrong! It creates more of a mess. If there is a problem go head to head and solve it don't build on it by talking trash to another party it solves absolutlely nothing.

Proverbs Solomon makes it clear that fools go around being idle from house to house being busy bodies. Take this rebuke and repent before its to late. Because God says if you choose to turn from His reproof then try to turn back to Him He'll laugh at you and mock you.

Lets get this thing right we're here to build each other, lift each other up, hold one another accountable, and help each other. Don't be part of the problem help solve the problem. Gossip divides and creates strife. Lets make up in our minds to seek peace.

I pray that we, the body of Christ, will lift one another up by our kind words. I pray Lord that you will guide us to rebuke any evil words that the enemy seeks to plant. I cancel the assignment of satan and his angels from bringing forth division in our friendships and relationships, work related as well as  personal. God give us boldness to speak and proclaim Your truth. Father I pray that from  this day forward you will sharpen our wisdom and understanding so we can understand the tricks of the enemy, and resist the temptations. In Jesus name amen.
