Proverbs 16:27-28
An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his
lips there is as a burning fire.
A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer
separateth chief friends.
Sometimes we can get information that
is not meant to be repeated. We may
think that if information makes its way to our ears we must deliver it to all
those who are affected by it or involved in it.
This is not so. Before we repeat
something to someone, we should stop and ask the Lord if this information will
build up or is it a juicy morsel the adversary wants to use to separate the
closest of friends. Information is not
always given to us in order to inform others.
Information could be given that we might pray over a situation or
perhaps learn for ourselves from some sort of situation. Let us not dig up evil. Let us not ask questions that the Lord has
not asked us to search out. Let us not
use a confidence to sow seeds of division and discouragement.
