Christian Communication | Anchored in Hope Devotions

Communication is a super important part of any Christians walk with God and their fellow Christians. The definition of communication is the process of exchanging information, ideas, thoughts and feelings from one person or group to another.

I believe that in every action we can take, there is a way to do it best, well, and righteously. We are to glorify God with everything we do, according to Colossians.

Some great Bible verses explaining the importance of correct speech are:

“The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.” - Proverbs 12:18

“To answer before listening—that is folly and shame.” - Proverbs 18:13

“A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” - Proverbs 15:1

So clearly there are correct ways to communicate with each other, and we can't forget that prayer is super important. It takes wisdom, discernment, and knowledge to know what the correct things to say are at what time.

Some really good verses talking about the importance of prayer are:

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” - Philippians 4:6

“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” - Mark 11:24

“Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.” - Colossians 4:2

Communication is important!! It is right and good for a Christian to learn how to properly communicate with their fold, as well as their Lord. Have a great day communicating!!
