HONESTY

 
 
Proverbs 11:1


"A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is his delight." ESV


It is one thing to be openly and unashamedly dishonest and unfair. But is is far worse to pretend to be honest while hiding and disguising the face of dishonesty. God detests the intention to deceive by those cunningly trying to make themselves look truthful and innocent. They are wolves in sheep's clothing. It is no wonder our Great Shepherd detests them. And it is necessary that we pray for discernment to recognize them and expose them.


Heavenly Father, please search our hearts to reveal any dishonesty in us so that we can repent of it. We pray for discernment to recognize dishonesty wherever it appears. Help us to be consistent with honesty and honest living so that we will be productive witnesses for Your kingdom. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
