I am looking for the verse that speaks about putting a guard over my lips or mouth. I can't think of it for anything. I'll know it when I see it.
Thanks ahead of time!![]()

My personal favorite.
- "He who guards his lips guards his life, but he who speaks rashly will come to ruin." - Proverbs 13:3
Here's a couple more.
- "Set a guard over my mouth, O LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips." - Psalm 141:3
- "He who guards his mouth and his tongue keeps himself from calamity." - Proverbs 21:23
".....it's your nickel"
Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; Keep watch over the door of my lips.--Ps 141:3
Gee I need to write those down and put them on sticky notes around the house...![]()
"People do not drift toward holiness. Apart from grace-driven effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord. We drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; We drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; We drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated?" - D A Carson

This one came to mind:
Psalms 34: 13. Who is the man who desires life, who loves days to see goodness? Guard your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceitfully. Shun evil and do good, seek peace and pursue it.
Hear the word of the Lord, O nations, and declare it on the islands from afar, and say, "He Who scattered Israel will gather them together and watch them as a shepherd his flock."
Jeremiah 31:9
