"Deliver
my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and
from a deceitful tongue. What shall be given unto thee? Or what shall be done unto thee, thou false
tongue?" (Psalm 120:2,3). "A true witness delivereth souls:
but a deceitful witness
speaketh lies… The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous
hath hope in his death" (Proverbs
14:26,34). "He [Jesus] will
thoroughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the
chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable" (Luke 3:16,17).
Deceit
shall very soon be finished;
The
lying tongue shall not endure,
But
truth shall never be diminished,
For
every word of God is pure.
The
witnesses of truth are tasked
As
messengers whom God has given.
Deceitfulness
may now be masked,
Yet
from the earth it shall be driven.
How
fleeting is hypocrisy,
That
lasts as long as men applaud
In
contrast to the destiny
Of
stewards of the Word of God.
Lord,
what is chaff compared to wheat?
The
wheat is like Your truth forever!
The
destiny of vain deceit
Is
like the chaff which You shall sever.
