Words: Empty or Not?

Ecclesiastes 6:11 The more the words, the less the meaning, and how does that profit anyone? 2 Kings 18:20 You say you have strategy and military strength—but you speak only empty words. 2 Corinthians 2:17 Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God. When we speak from our hearts, 1 Corinthians 2:13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Proverbs 2:2 turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding. Psalm 39:3 My heart grew hot within me, and as I meditated, the fire burned; then I spoke with my tongue.
