Ministry on This Verse

Prov. 12:13• 13The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble. (Prov. 12:13)
;
Prov. 18:7• 7A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. (Prov. 18:7)
• Unlikely as it may seem on the face of it, pride is generally the incentive to suretyship. A desire to be thought well of, to be accounted in easy circumstances, has led many a man to “strike hands,” or go on another’s bond, who was quite unable to assume so serious a responsibility and yet discharge his obligations to those properly dependent on him. (“Proverbs Six” by H.A. Ironside)
