Day 107 Watch That Tongue | Proverbs 10:31-32
Watch That Tongue
31
The mouth of the godly person gives wise advice,
but the tongue that deceives will be cut off.
32
The lips of the godly speak helpful words,
but the mouth of the wicked speaks perverse words.
Verses 31-32
Verse 32 encourages us. Many people worry that they will say the wrong thing. A good man always says the right thing. If we trust in God, then God will help us. If we study the Bible, then we shall speak God’s words. If we pray, then God will guide us. We do not need to worry. We need to be humble.
If we serve God, then we shall not speak evil words. We shall not even know how to speak evil words! When we speak, other people will benefit.
Righteous people respect and try to obey the rules,
commandments, statutes and laws of Yahweh. When righteous
people speak, they are informed by Scriptures and therefore they
speak with Wisdom and Understanding.
Perverse people rebel against the constraints of Scriptures
that are there to protect them. It follows that they will fail since
they don’t have a clue about Creation’s rules.
Righteous people know what is acceptable because they
know the Scriptures.
Either wicked people don’t know Scriptures or
deliberately disobey Scriptures. Either way they are perverse.
Righteousness doesn’t depend upon education. I’ve known
many PhD’s who are considered Wise by the world but who are
so proud of their intellect that they miss the whole point of
Scriptures that every human is tainted by sin and needs a Savior.
Let Me Ask You: Are you really conscious that you are
in desperate need of a Savior?
