LYING LIPS

Psalm 12:1-4 New International Version (NIV)

1: Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore; those who are loyal have vanished from humans. 2: Everyone lies to their neighbor; they flatter with their lips but harbor deception in their hearts. 3: May the Lord silence all flattering lips and every boastful tongue—4: those who say, “By our tongues we will prevail; our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”

12:2-4 We may be tempted to believe that some lies are relatively harmless, even useful at times. But God does not overlook lies, flattery, deception, or boasting. Each of these sins originates from a bad attitude that is eventually expressed in our speech. The tongue can be our greatest enemy because, though small, it can do great damage (James 3:5-6). Be careful how you use yours. Tyndale. Life Application Study Bible NIV

ON THE WAY HOME WALK WITH JESUS and know that even in times like we live in today where lying and deception seems to be acceptable, that GOD will still see and know every time someone utters and untrue statement and he is still the LORD OVER ALL OF US!!!
