HYPOCRISY AND VULGARITY IS VERY EXPENSIVE
He who has a deceitful heart finds no good, and he who has a perverse tongue falls into evil. – Proverbs 17:20
We cannot expect to be blessed and have a good life when we have a crooked mind and a deceitful heart. It may seem that there are people who are exactly like that and they have a great life, lacking nothing, but it is not true. They lack peace, true joy and are always insecure, no matter how great their lives seem to be. God’s Word is the truth as God cannot lie!
We need to be aware that not only perverse talk is dangerous, but idle talk is dangerous also. This can cost us dearly. What we hear our own voices say out loud, we believe the most and when we speak things that are contradictory, our minds do not know what to think and we start to doubt our own words. It is possible then when we try to speak healing in Jesus’ Name over our bodies, we will not believe our own words and be unable to receive our healing. Be faithful to our Lord in all we say and do.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
Heavenly Father, Your Holy Word is truth and nothing but pure truth. Please help me watch every word I utter and maintain a pure faithful heart towards You, all the time. Please help me to never use hurtful or abusive words and to stay away from the people that use them. Please help me to love and value only what You do, no matter what people may say about me. Thank You so very much. I make this prayer in Jesus’ Name. Amen
