Slander or Grace

Mar13

Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will destroy (silence); No one who has a haughty look and an arrogant heart will I endure.
Psalms 101:5 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.101.5.NASB1995

God knows our intentions, both of the mind and heart. We are totally transparent to God, so let us be truthful with ourselves. Let us rid ourselves of the things that God despises and surrender to His will, His way, His truth.

These the Lord hates, which are an abomination to Him (of His soul):

Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood,
A false witness who utters lies, And one who spreads strife among brothers.
Proverbs 6:16-17, 19 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/pro.6.17-19.NASB1995

🙏 God forgive me for slander spoken in my heart against my neighbor; for lies I speak outwardly and inwardly regarding my neighbor. Help me to not be a false witness full of lies, but a true witness of your truth and forgiveness. God clothe me in Your righteousness for Your namesake; for Your glory. Amen.

🌹A good man will obtain favor from the Lord, But He will condemn a man who devises evil.
Proverbs 12:2 NASB1995

No Lies, Just Truth

Mar12

‘You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Deuteronomy 5:20 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/deu.5.20.NASB1995

How often have we heard information about someone and passed it on to others without knowing if it is true? Is it our place to point fingers at someone, especially if it is unverified information? The Word says, “Do not accuse, lie about, anyone falsely.”

Matthew 19:18 . . . And Jesus said, “. . . You shall not bear false witness;”.

God spoke saying . . .
“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Exodus 20:16 NASB1995

“You shall not bear a false report; do not join your hand with a wicked man to be a malicious witness.”
Exodus 23:1 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/exo.23.1.NASB1995

‘You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, nor lie to one another.
Leviticus 19:11 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/lev.19.11.NASB1995

A false witness will not go unpunished, And he who tells lies will not escape.
Proverbs 19:5 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/pro.19.5.NASB1995

🌹Therefore, laying aside falsehood, speak truth each one of you with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.
Ephesians 4:25 NASB1995

1 John 2:4

Aug15

The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;
1 John 2:4 NASB

Lord, draw me to true understanding of this verse today as I meditate on Your word. Reveal to me whether Your truth is in me and I know You or whether I am making You a liar.
There are many rebellious people, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of professing faith. They profess to know You, God, but by their deeds they deny You, being detestable and disobedient and worthless for any good deed. Forgive me for any deceiving way or disobedience in me. Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my thoughts; And see if there be any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. In the name of Jesus I ask and pray, amen.
Titus 1:10/Titus 1:16 NASB/Psalms 139:23‭-‬24
