Proverbs 18, Proverbs Series
The power of our words is such that it can bring harmony or strife. Words can help build up people, families and communities, or they can tear them down. It’s amazing how much Proverbs has to say about speech. Last year, I wrote a master’s thesis on this issue of communication from the book of Proverbs. Out of the 886 verses found in Proverbs, there are an estimated 246 verses that address the issue of speech, speaking, listening or acting upon what has been communicated, which makes up over 27% of all proverbs. That gives us an indication that communication is central to human relationships.
