Putting the Word into Action

The young Amalekite that brought David word of Saul's death thought that David would reward him with worldly riches. He must have been surprised when David had the man put to death! Last week's action was to refrain from character assassination. This week's action is a continuation of that. Let's work on killing ungodly speech again this week. Even if you worked on this last week this trait has an ugly way of resurrecting itself so we need to keep slaying it.
