‘’Proud Look’’
A proud look is a person that has a ‘’ better than you attitude’’ ‘’ I am so important I have no time for you or anyone else’’, ‘’Feel special with my presence’’. We can really see this by the expression on people faces. Honestly, we all have seen little children mimic their parents or even some famous Rock Star like Michael Jackson or some other famous person(s)… We all have been in deep thoughts before and others may think we are snubbing them, when this isn’t the case and it’s the farthest thing from your mind. But, we all know what a proud look is.. In the book of Luke 11:34 ‘’The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.’’ Our eyes transmit from my heart.. From the heart come generosity, love, compassion, good and evil.. We have recognized and avoid a proud look- God hate it!
‘’ Lying Tongue’’
A lying tongue is when someone lies and it becomes a part of their lives… They lie to take care of the lies they told and so forth. A habitual liar lies so much they want everyone to believe them and sometimes people can and will get caught up and believe someone that lies. Always tell the truth, it may hurt you one time but you don’t have to worry about it anymore… People always have this saying ‘’ they were caught in the act’’ When we hear someone even in the church do this, just remember how much easier it is to simply tell the truth under any circumstances. In Proverbs 12:19 it shows us this: The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment. Remember there are no benefits in telling lies, it may fool people a little while, but, the truth will always come through…
“Hands that shed innocent blood”
This involves attacking an innocent person walking by in order to prove and satisfy themselves. Such a bullies in schools, that act and take advantage over innocence people. This occurs on the schools grounds and even work places… suicide bombers are a type of this: They expect to kill all in sight and plan on killing them in the process. God hates this kind of actions and mindset.. In Proverbs 1:11 a false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.
“A heart that devises wicked imaginations”
This is like a mob mentality, which leads people to do mean and wicked things. We see this sometimes on the news where someone will kill at Wal-Mart on Black Friday, because he was at the door first in line, and so many people walked on him and killed him for a sale, we see this lot when football and Nascar fans go wild. Other fans make threats and do stupid things in the process. Exodus 23:2 reads, Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment: Truthfully this is how the world celebrates.. Sadly, but it’s the truth.
“A false witness that speaks lies”
This consists of someone who is acting a witness and twists the whole truth… this is like a lying tongue who perverts the truth and twists it also. In Proverbs 19:5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape. This action is closely related to someone who destroys the truth.
“He that sows discord among brethren”
This is the nature of Satan- Sowing discord among brethren involves people gossiping, putting people down and telling lies to make the person not have any confidence in them anymore…. It will split friendships, marriages, and even churches. In Proverbs 19:9, A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish. Spreading rumors is one of the numerous ways that the hands of someone that sows discord..
We have to identify, resist and learn to hate such things just as God hates.. Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed? Isaiah 53:1
