It is estimated that every human being has about a hundred million neurons or nerve cells in his body and that each neuron can contain about five billion bits of information.! Is it not wonderful (perhaps shocking to some of us) to discover that our tongue virtually has total control over these hundred million neurons in our body!
If you say "I'm very weak,"immediately instruction form the Speech centre goes to all the nerves: "Be prepared to be weak." Instantly your whole body feels a tendency to relax, to go to bed, etc, You dont seem to have energy to do any work.
Similarly when you say, "Mr.A is a very bad fellow," straightawayall your nerve cells accept it as a fact and adjust themselves to that. Afterwards, if someone tells you that Mr.A is a very good man, all your nerves immediately get irritated and upset. On the other hand, in case you hear somebody say, "Mr.A is a very bad man," you feel very happy and may say, "You are right. I quite agree with you." Perhaps you do not realize that all your nerve cells are so obedient to your tongue, that, even if others see a thousand good things in that person, you cannot find any good in him. The simple reason is that you have already instructed your 100 million nerves accordingly!
It has been rightly said, "The greatest point of danger in the world is the tip of the tongue." So dear Child of God, be careful how you use your tongue.
James, the "divine neurologist" says, The tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body." Jms 3:5,6 This amazing discovery made by James was but a supernatural revelation from God.
