Beware of the snares My enemy prepares to entrap you. He prepares his snares with the very words you speak. Your spoken words are also the ammunition My enemy uses as fiery darts to wound your soul. Solomon wrote, "You are snared with the words of your mouth, you are taken with the words of your mouth (Proverbs 6:2)."
Be extremely careful about what you speak. Use the "Think Test" that Paul wrote about as a "Talk Test." Speak only the following things:
Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report: if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (Philippians 4:8).
Solomon wrote, "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he" (Proverbs 23:7). When you blurt out all the negative words My enemy gives you in your mind, you are helping My enemy ensnare you. Solomon also wrote, "Whoso keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps his soul from troubles (Proverbs 21:23).
Be careful today not to cooperate with My enemy as he tries to entrap you.
