Love Better than Wine

Be of Few Words
"Do not be rash with your mouth, And let not your heart utter anything hastily before God. For God is in heaven, and you on earth; Therefore let your words be few. For a dream comes through much activity, And a fool’s voice is known by his many words." Ecclesiastes 5:2-3 (NKJV)

"A righteous man who falters before the wicked Is like a murky spring and a polluted well." Proverbs 25:26 (NKJV)
The Wicked, and Righteousness

Lying Lips, Truth, and the LORD

GOD Our Hope
"LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me. Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child. Let Israel hope in the LORD …
GOD Our King and Priest

GOD Hears
"In my distress I cried to the LORD, And He heard me. Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips And from a deceitful tongue. What shall be given to you, Or what shall be done to you, You false tongue? Sharp arrows of the warrior, With coals of the broom tree!" Psalm 120:1-4 (NKJV)
GOD Our Rejoicing
"Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD: this gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter. I will praise Thee: for Thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation. The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of …

GOD is Good

GOD and the Test
"Moreover He called for a famine in the land; He destroyed all the provision of bread. He sent a man before them— Joseph—who was sold as a slave. They hurt his feet with fetters, He was laid in irons. Until the time that his word came to pass, The word of the LORD tested him. …
