Day 58 Bible Reading: Leviticus 20-21, Mark 9, Psalm 43 and Proverb 10:18
How many relationships have suffered because of the words that have come out of our mouths? We use words to communicate daily in our lives and here, the Scripture guides us in how we should be wise with our words. It also reveals how we could use words to conceal the hatred in our hearts. Have you ever spoken well of someone knowing that you concealed hatred, bitterness, and jealousy toward them?
"The one who conceals hatred has lying lips, and whoever utters slander is a fool." – Proverbs 10:18 (English Standard Version)
"Father, I pray that the words I speak will be words of love and integrity. Remove hatred from my heart and slander from my life and instead instil a loving and honouring heart toward others. Amen."
