The Door of Your Lips

Your lips—your mouth, your tongue, your words—are a door!

'Set a guard, O Lord, over my MOUTH; keep watch over the DOOR OF MY LIPS.' [Psalm 141:3]

A door? A door to what? A door, or gate, to your life!

'Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.' [Proverbs 18:21]

Oh, my. How about this?

'But you will CALL your walls salvation, and your GATES PRAISE.' [Isaiah 60:18]

Which door do you want to open? Door #1, door #2 or door #3?
It's up to you. Study the books of Psalms and Proverbs—note every scripture that mentions the mouth, the tongue, lips.
Note where there are actual quotes and what the result of those spoken words are. For example:

'The Lord gives the command [word]; the women who proclaim the good tidings are a great host [army]: [and this is what they say] "Kings of armies flee, they flee, And she who remains at home will divide the spoil!" [Psalm 68:11,12]

The women say what God says...they're the army behind the army, fighting with their words! And they will participate in the victory!
How about this one?

'He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will SAY to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!"' [Psalm 91:1,2]

And then the rest of Psalm 91—all of the protection and deliverance—are the result of his declaration of that protection and deliverance!
Destiny

‘Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, His lovingkindness is everlasting. Let the redeemed of the Lord SAY so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the adversary' [Psalm 107:1,2]

Why? What's the point?
Because your words are the vehicle of your salvation!

'But what does it say? "THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, in your mouth and in your heart"—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, that if you confess with your MOUTH Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the MOUTH he confesses, resulting in salvation.' [Romans 10:8-10]

And always remember these important Bible facts:

‘By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.’ [1 John 4:17]
‘For as many as are the promises of God, in Him they are YES; therefore also through Him is our AMEN to the glory of God through us.’ [2 Corinthians 1:20]
‘But the one who joins himself to the Lord is ONE SPIRIT WITH HIM.’ [1 Corinthians 6:17]

Finally, remember Joel 3:10...

'Let the weak say, "I am a mighty man."'

Talk about calling things that be not as though they were! That's why God changed Abram's name to Abraham! He had him CALL himself 'Father of a multitude of nations' BEFORE he had a son!
He was old, his wife was old and barren. Please note: God did NOT have him call himself 'Old guy with no kids'!
His lips were the door to his destiny.
Think about it.
Hallelujah!
