"The Power Of The Tongue"

Michael Jackson

As Christians, the Bible teaches us to be careful of our words, known as "The power of the tongue" as they have power, in speaking things into reality via faith, whether it be positive or negative, good or bad.

Other bizarre mystical movements have tried to push this concept as well, albeit altered, that comes straight out of the Word of God. The Bible also teaches us that negative words can take effect as well. Therefore, we are to speak good and positive things into our lives, through proclamations of faith to bring blessings.

Recently, since his passing, I was looking over some of Michael Jackson's lyrics and was surprised at how negative some of it is.

Considering the manner in which he died last month, of cardiac arrest, his heartbeat stopping in his bedroom, with many stating his death was foul play, due to his doctor's bizarre conduct, such as waiting half an hour to call 911 and administering CPR (mouth to mouth resuscitation) incorrectly, coupled with previous threats he had received, even stating people were out to get him for his copyrighted catalog, it's somewhat ironic:

"Smooth Criminal"

So She Ran Into The Bedroom
She Was Struck Down, It Was Her Doom

So They Came Into The Outway
It Was Sunday-What A Black Day
Mouth To Mouth Resuscitation
Sounding Heartbeats-Intimidations

"Thriller"

Under the moonlight you see a sight that almost stops your heart
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight

They're out to get you...
