THE MANIPULATIVE/DECEIVING TONGUE:
My Mouth
Manipulation means to influence or control artfully or deceptively. To understand it more fully, please read Genesis 3. This clearly explains that Satan is the father of deception. I am very sure none of us want to follow in his footsteps.
Today do not sin by deceiving anyone as you will be breaking one of God’s commandments (Leviticus 19:11).
My Meditation
Today meditate on Romans16:18 and pledge to serve Christ rather than our own appetites.
May God help each one of us to speak plain truth today and always. May God also help us not to be deceived by anyone.
