Adapted from Les Crause's Spoken Curses Commentary
Spoken Curses Come Through Anger
...And the enemy of our souls (Satan) still uses his power to attack and destroy men but he needs to be licensed specifically by men. That means he must be given permission to attack you before he can do so. This permission is something that you grant him every time you become angry and speak angry words.
Thus, when you speak negative words against another human being as a result of bitterness and anger, you license the enemy against that person. You might think that you are justified in your anger, and that you have a right to speak words of destruction to another. But you should realize the consequences of your anger.
You might be destroying the life of another, and causing things to go wrong in their life. So why not sit down right now and make up a list of people you are still angry with, and put these matters to sleep at once.
When you are angry, not only do you bring destruction and trouble into the life of the person we are angry with, but you actually open the door for the same thing to happen in your own...

jenFad,
Again, excellent commentary---may you be rewarded.
If I could add?
The Creator of Adaam also created Iblis, a being that was unable to submit to Adaam-Iblis of course was one of the Malaeekatah(angels)-who submitted to Creator except for Iblis in the case of Man.
Adaam then heard the whispering of Iblis-sometimes also called Shaitan(Satan) in Hebrew or Arabic----and Adaam committed a sin with his Mate.
The Creator then allowed for the whispering of Iblis to all The Descendants of Adaam.
For Judgement.
If the Believer disciplines self, and follows a path in life ordained by Creator, and the help of Creator--Scripture and Prophets; then the Believer is promised by AlKhalq-Creator---merciful and compassionate Judgement.
If the man/woman is overcome by Iblis's whisperings, then their Judgement may not receive the mercy and compassion of The Creator.
One of the glorious commandments of Moses-Musa(as) states:
(2) Do not have any other gods before me.
4 You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me,
6 but showing steadfast love to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments.
So in my belief of Musa(as), I am shown that anger of The Creator is pretty Lasting.
I would rather use the laws given by Creator and abide by them--
I am allowed to raise my voice or thought to those that break obvious laws and are overcome by the whispering of Satan. And I would Pray that my bro/sis would holler at me if I listen to whispering.
I would Believe that I am following the example set for the Family of Adaam.....
