KUW Insights Podcast
I love insights that are based on the knowledge, understanding and wisdom sourced from the Word of God.These three parameters are what insights are all about as the Lord advocates that by wisdom a house is built; and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures.We need to create time in our busy schedule to slow down and ponder over the finer things of life. Our thinking should be facilitated by the Holy Spirit who will cause our thought patterns to align with that of the Almighty God

The Final Word
Welcome to the KUW Insight Podcast. Today’s insight is titled The Final Word written by Ade Ojomo and read by Tinuke Akinbulumo:
1. Have you made negative comments regarding an individual or a group of individuals
2. Were the comments made directly or behind their backs?
3. What impact did the comments have on you and the parties involved?

Lyndon Johnson, the 36th President of the United States quoted the following:
“The vote is the most powerful instrument ever devised by man for breaking down injustice and destroying the terrible walls which imprison men because they are different from other men.”
In my opinion the most powerful instrument on earth is the power is the tongue because it has the power of life and death as advised in Proverbs 18 v 21.
Our future can be created or destroyed with our tongue. It seems that companies understand this as they now record all conversations held over the phone in case they need to present it in court as defence (even though they tell you that it is for training purposes!)
A 12 man team was sent on a reconnaissance mission to explore a foreign land and confirm it’s fruitfulness.
Two came back with a report that had the potential to create a future while ten came back with a report that had the potential to destroy the future. The repercussion of their negative report is highlighted in Numbers 14 v 36 – 38:
So the men Moses had sent to explore the land, who returned and made the whole community grumble against him by spreading a bad report about it- these men responsible for spreading the bad report about the land were struck down and died of a plague before the LORD. Of the men who went to explore the land, only Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh survived.
Our goal in speaking is to build up, not tear down, the Body of Christ. We do this through the following:
1. Words of encouragement in times of difficulty. We accomplish this by coming together in prayer and praise.
2. When we need to correct it should be gently, not harshly with words guided by the Holy Spirit to bring life to the soul, in a manner that we would like to be spoken to if we needed correction in the same situation.
3. We need to speak only the good things that need to be heard, things that will really help one another.
Goodbye and until the next KUW Insight,
