In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me. 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? Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar. My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
It’s slowly soaking in, LORD, that as one who is sworn to You, I am faced frequently with lying lips and deceitful tongues. Give me wisdom to recognize deliberate attempts to lead me astray and ruin my witness.
Also, there are times when falsehood is so attractively packaged that I fall into the trap. I need the oversight of the Holy Spirit.

Morning Psalm 19, Noon Psalm 119:169-176, Evening Psalm 12
An alternate Reading Plan is based on 7 chapters/day from 7 sections of the Scriptures. My groupings are: Genesis-Joshua, Judges to Esther, Job to Song of Solomon, Psalms breaking 119 into convenient sets, Isaiah to Malachi, Matthew to Acts, Romans to Revelation.
Or set your own reading schedule up in convenient groupings as fits your study habits. But a daily time in the Word of the LORD is an absolute.
