But the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped. Psalm - TopicsExpress



          

But the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped. Psalm 63:11 Once lies and deception enter in to a leader or an organization, trouble is sure to follow. Lies always bring harm. They weaken and destroy relationships. They erode trust. As a result, wise leaders will not tolerate dishonesty in their midst. There are many ways for falsehood to creep in to leaders’ lives. It can begin by simply stretching the truth, or telling a half-truth, or withholding a portion of the truth. Such behavior can appear easy to justify. But once dishonesty has a foothold, it can be difficult to expunge it from you. The psalmist declared that when he drew near to God, his heart desired, even craved truth. He understood that God’s truth was his life. Not only would he embrace truth, but he would surround himself with others who loved God’s truth as well. If you can tolerate liars and deceivers in your company, perhaps you have not drawn close enough to the God of light and truth. ~ Henry Blackaby
