Proverbs 13:2-3 NKJV
“A man shall eat well by the fruit of his mouth, But the soul of the unfaithful feeds on violence. He who guards his mouth preserves his life, But he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction.”
God created man as a three part being. You are a spirit, you have a soul & you live in a body. When God created Adam, He placed him in the Garden of Eden to tend the Garden.
Adam was a spirit & the Garden where he was placed in, was his soul & what he produced in the garden was the manifestation of his soul into the physical. Adam as a spirit fed his spirit by communing with the Lord & he continually fed the garden of his soul by nourishing it by what he received in his spirit, before the fall.
In the same manner you are given a responsibility from God to tend the garden of your soul, to feed your soul from the reservoir of your spirit man. However, you are not able to, because you have no revelation on how to access your spirit man, on how to make withdrawals from your spirit & deposit it into your soul because you are use to making withdrawals from the physical into your soul. Because of which you are eating the fruit of carnality.
A carnal person has no control on the words of his mouth because the soul is not being fed from the things of the spirit but from carnality. You are limited when your soul for years has been fed from the realm of the physical, the realm of the carnal.
What exactly is the Lord teaching us from above scripture Proverbs 13:3? You can only guard your mouth when you have the revelation to guard the mouth of your soul. A person who doesn’t gaurd the mouth of his soul is naked soulishly & when he opens his mouth, there is only destruction that follows him. A person whose soul is open & naked lives a life of limitations, setbacks, frustration, instead of moving forward you are grounded & you can only go backwards.
A person whose soul is open & naked has lost dominion to operate in power & authority that’s the reason in the book of Genesis 3, it says Adam & Eve sewed themselves with fig leaves because they became conscious of their nakedness & it was the nakedness of their soul. And they were thrown out of the Garden where they was all the blessings & provision they ever needed.
Today many believers in the Lord are naked in their soul because of which their words lead them in the path of destruction instead of life. It’s time to introspect your life rather than, judging others. Cry for an encounter before the Lord.
PRAYER:
Father God, I come before you in all humbleness that I have not earned by my own merits or works but only by your Grace. Deliver my soul & destroy every carnality that has been deposited for years into my soul that has been opened. By your consuming fire, devour all carnality, devour & destroy everything that is carnal & help me to eat from the Garden of my spirit that my soul would be nourished by your wisdom, knowledge, Revelation & Understanding. From today, my soul will only have access to you & the things that will make my soul prosperous like my spirit, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Amen!!!
