Proverbs 10:19 KJV
In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.
Inspiration
It is better to say nothing than to open our mouths and sin with our words. The more we talk, the more likely we are to say something amiss. The tongue is often the instrument of sin. Better to let our words be few, or to think before we speak. Better to weigh our thoughts before we make them spoken words.
Prayer
O GOD, I have sinned far too often with my words. I put my hand on my mouth and repent of my sinful words, which were uttered in anger, jealousy, lust, or rebellion against You. Cleanse my lips as You did Isaiah's (Isaiah 6) when he saw the Glory of CHRIST. Teach me to think and speak well, to speak a word in season that will be like cool water to a thirsty soul. Amen.
