BEWARE
THE WELL SPOKEN EVIL!
Ps
55:19-21
Because
they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
20
He
hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken
his covenant.
21
The
words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was
in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were
they drawn swords.
Our
election,
this year, is more than political. It is a spiritual conflict. One is a
polished political speaker and the other is a brash, rough around the edges,
business man. One doctor has a smooth bedside manor while the other has good
medicine. If I were sick I would want to be well.
I
apologize
for politicizing a devotional blog! I should be coloring these pages with the
wonderful and loving nature of an omnipotent God – but when God, Himself weighs
in on the matter in our above text, I think it might be
appropriate. God warns us to beware of well spoken evil.
I
would cast my lot with a repentant sinner, like myself, than one who
claims no sin or recollection of wrongdoing. I am a sinner. I know that. You
know that too but God is a welcoming and forgiving God. Let us run into His
arms for forgiveness and safety.
Prov
18:10
10
The
name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is
safe.
Dear
Lord, I need your strength and safety today. Thank you for being my guide and
protector. AMEN
