A Song of Ascents. In my distress I called to the LORD, and he answered me. Deliver me, O LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.
Lord, in the course of my day, I face many deceitful spirits in the form of articles, e-mails, conversations, and even through my eyes. Put a shield around me, give me discernment to see through the temptations and wiles of the devil, give me the willingness to listen to the quiet and gentle leading of the Holy Spirit in these matters.
Thank You for Your promise that He will lead me into all truth. What a comfort that promise is to me.
