Proverbs
10:6-7
Blessings are upon the head of the just:
but violence
covereth the mouth of the wicked.
The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of
the wicked shall rot.
When
we live our lives apart from the defining plan of God’s Word and what He says
is right we have a very tumultuous existence without any rhyme or reason. Our lives shake violently under the
consequences and influences of sinful seeds sown without regard to our Lord’s
will in individual choices we have made.
We must be a people who seek our God and want to honor Him with our
choices.
Our
mouths must be controlled by the Holy Spirit with our heart being filled with
psalms, hymns and spiritual songs, making melody to the Lord. This will result in not having a wicked heart
and help us avoid such unnecessary human conflict as a result of our own
wickedness.
The
thoughts of others when they hear your name should bring blessing to their day
as hopefully you are a link to their mind being stayed on Christ. If you or I are forever meddling, gossiping
or speaking of things we ought not, our names could very well turn the stomach
of someone who hears it mentioned. We
must be just and in order to be just we must be lovers of truth, pleasers of
God and not just loyal to men. This will
create scenarios where words will be spoken in order to please man and gain his
approval only to result in conflict and inconsistency.
