Proverbs 12:18
There is one who speaks rashly like the thrusts of a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

James wrote that we, the people of God, must be quick to hear and slow to speak and slow to anger. {Jas.1:19} Certainly the opposite of rashly! Jesus had said the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart. The good man brings out of his good treasure what is good. {Mat.12:34-35} Therefore…

The tongue of the wise will bring forth God’s word—for that is wisdom! And as Solomon also wrote: “My son give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; Keep them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those who find them and health to all their body.” {Prov.4:20-22) Truly bringing healing just as today’s Scripture proclaims!
 
We have been told that if any of us speaks, specifically meaning all of us who believe, let us speak as it were one who is speaking the utterances of God. {1Pt.4:11} In other words, since the mouth speaks out of the abundance of the heart, the love that fills our heart {Rom.5:5} and the Word that is written, not on tablets of stone but on the tablets of our hearts {2Cor.3:3} should be flowing forth from us like rivers of living water! {Jn.7:38}

How glorious it will be when we hear Jesus say;

“It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to the one who thirsts from the spring of the water of life without cost.” (Revelation 21:6)
    “Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” (Revelation 22:1-2)
 
DEATH AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF THE TONGUE
