Words spoken are spoken; cannot be taken back. Words can hurt someone or build and encourage and comfort someone. It can be a criticism or praise. It can be a lie or truth. Still they carry power. Kind words carries love and patience.
Our Tongue represents what is in our heart, our speach, our words, our language (heavenly or worldly), our honesty. Words proceed from your mouth are fruit of your heart. It shows the purity of your heart.
Matt 15:18 - "...things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man 'unclean.'" -
Your words can make you (your heart) unclean in the eyes of God. Keep your heart clean. How can we keep our heart clean? By filling our heart with the life giving Word of God. Psalm 119:11 - "Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You."
Matt 12:36 - "...for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment."
We are accountable to God, for everyword comes out of our mouth.
Prov 18:21 - "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit."
Every single word we speak are important. Words do have power and they will bring forth fruits. Don't speak negative words, curses or death over yourselves. Speak life, speak promises of God. Say not a single word which does not belong to you. Don't say, "I will never make it"; but say "God will make it for me".
Eph 5:4 - "...nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting..." are not fitting for saints. Don't join people who speak foolish worldly stuff either.
Ps 66:17 - "I cried out to him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue." - Our mouth and tongue should be used for the Lord and Lord alone. His Word and praise should be in our tongue.
Prov 10:19 - "When words are many(multitude of words), sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise." - so don't be in a haste(hurry) to speak many words; so that you may be wise and avoid sin.

James 3:3 - 12 - More about your tongue... As bridle controls the whole body of the horse to obey, and as a small rudder steers and controls the direction of a big ship, and as a small spark of fire set the big forest on fire - Tongue Control is so important.
