Proverbs 6:2 (KJV)
“Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.”
Proverbs 18:21 (NKJV)
“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”
Deuteronomy 30:19 (NKJV)
“I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live.”
James 3:4-10 (NIV)
4 Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs.
5 So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things.How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire!
6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life,[a] and set on fire by hell.[b]
7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind,
8 but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God.
10 From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers,[c] these things ought not to be so.
Proverbs 15:4 (NIV)
“The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit.”
Gen 1:3 & 6 & 9 & 11 & 14-15 & 20 & 24 & 26 ESV
3 God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
6 And God said, “Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.”
9 And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.” And it was so.
11 And God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth.” And it was so.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years,
20 And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.”
24 And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds–livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so.
26 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
Psalm 33:6, 9 (NIV)
“By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth… For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm.”
Hebrews 11:3 (NKJV)
“By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.”
Romans 10:8–10 (NKJV)
“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach):
That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
2 Corinthians 4:13 (ESV)
“Since we have the same spirit of faith according to what is written, ‘I believed, and so I spoke,’ we also believe, and so we also speak.”

“Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.”
1 Samuel 17:43–44 (NKJV)
So the Philistine said to David,
“Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?”
And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
And the Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!”
1 Samuel 17:45–47 (NKJV)
Then David said to the Philistine,
“You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air… that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
Then all this assembly shall know that the Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give you into our hands.”
Mark 11:12-14
“On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry. Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see whether perhaps he would find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. He said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it.”

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)”
James 1:6–8 (KJV)
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
Proverbs 13:3 NKJV
“He who guards his mouth preserves his life, But he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction.”
Proverbs 13:2 NKJV
“A man shall eat well by the fruit of his mouth, But the soul of the unfaithful feeds on violence.”
Numbers 14:26–28 (NKJV)
“And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
‘How long shall I bear with this evil congregation who complain against Me? I have heard the complaints which the children of Israel make against Me.
Say to them, “As I live,” says the Lord, “just as you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you:”
“The carcasses of you who have complained against Me shall fall in this wilderness…”
