Proverbs
26:24,25
"Whoever
hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart; when he
speaks graciously, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his
heart." ESV
Evil people use
kind and gracious words to make them appear to be something they are not and to
deceive others. Evil is so good at appearing like angels of light that even the
most spiritual of persons can be easily deceived. We are strongly warned to look
at the fruit produced by a person and not just listen to their words. The sweet
talk of an evil man hides detestable things which God hates. Watch their walk,
it over rides their talk.
Heavenly Father,
how we are in need of discernment and protection from evil ones who are all
around us with sweet and kind words coming from their lips. Give us awareness of
their actions so that we can know whether evil is being hidden in their hearts
behind the nice words. We pray in the name of Jesus, Amen.
