“Again you have heard that it was
said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your
oaths to the Lord.’ But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for
it is God’s throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem,
for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by
your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. But let your ‘Yes’ be
‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil
one.” Matthew 5:33-37 NKJV
How many times have you said something
other than yes or no? Have you ever said maybe? Take a moment and pray that the
Lord helps you to apply this passage of Scripture to your life.
