- 0:11Speaker 2: says in the message translation.
- 0:13Speaker 1: With our tongues we bless God our father.
- 0:16Speaker 2: With the same tongue we curse the very men and
- 0:20Speaker 2: women he made in his image. Curses and blesses come
- 0:25Speaker 2: out of the same mouth.

- 0:53Speaker 2: So don't go around being against yourself. The enemy would

- 1:03Speaker 2: and depressed and low, as though you're not up to power,
- 1:07Speaker 2: as if you're at some kind of disadvantage.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Too many people.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Swallow that bait from the enemy and go around speaking
- 1:15Speaker 2: negativity about themselves. You tell yourself you're not good enough,
- 1:19Speaker 2: you say you're not smart enough, you're too old, you
- 1:22Speaker 2: don't have what it takes to be successful. Oh, I
- 1:26Speaker 2: wish I had this person's talent. I wish I look
- 1:29Speaker 2: like that person. No, the devil is a liar. You've
- 1:32Speaker 2: been made in the image and the likeness of God.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Stop criticizing yourself. When you criticize yourself as less than
- 1:41Speaker 2: you're criticizing God's creation. You're trying to make God a liar.
- 1:46Speaker 2: The Lord says that everything that he made was good
- 1:48Speaker 2: and very good.
- 1:50Speaker 1: You're made in the image.
- 1:51Speaker 2: And likeness of God. You're saying God, you fail when
- 1:54Speaker 2: you made me.
- 1:57Speaker 1: If you're made in.
- 1:58Speaker 2: God's image, are you suggest that God is flawed?

- 2:28Speaker 1: Stop criticizing yourself.
- 2:30Speaker 2: Don't let your tongue keep you from becoming everything that
- 2:33Speaker 2: God created you to be.
