I ask for prayer my heart, conscience, and mouth are guarded.

✝️ Blessed is the Sabbath. 🫂

Ask God to set a guard — daily, explicitly

“Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.”
(Psalm 141:3, KJV)

2) Refuse speech that is rushed, pressured, or performative

Falsehood and vanity thrive on haste and pressure.

“He that believeth shall not make haste.” (Isaiah 28:16, KJV)

If speech feels:
    •    urgent without peace
    •    compelled
    •    self-justifying
    •    defensive

Pause. Silence is obedience at times.

“In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin.” (Proverbs 10:19, KJV)

Silence is often the righteous choice.

3) Anchor your words to truth, not outcome

Vanity speaks to achieve, control, or appear.

Truth speaks because it is true.

“Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour.” (Ephesians 4:25, KJV)

Ask internally before speaking:
    •    Is this true?
    •    Is this necessary?
    •    Does this align with God’s goodness?

If not, do not speak it.

⸻

4) Reject counterfeit discernment immediately

False discernment:
    •    flatters urgency
    •    feeds self-importance
    •    produces agitation or fear

True discernment:
    •    produces peace
    •    aligns with obedience
    •    does not contradict Scripture

“The wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable…”
(James 3:17, KJV)

If it is not pure and peaceable, it is not from God.

⸻

5) Bind your mouth to God’s Word, not your feelings

Feelings fluctuate. The Word does not.

“Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.”
(Psalm 119:11, KJV)

When tempted to speak vanity, speak Scripture instead — or remain silent.

⸻

6) Commit your hands as well as your mouth

You mentioned “a right hand of falsehood” — Scripture treats action and speech together.

“Let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.”
(1 John 3:18, KJV)

Truthful action reinforces truthful speech.
