Talk of God’s Power—When someone asks how you are feeling, do not try to think of something mournful to tell in order to gain sympathy. Do not talk of your lack of faith and your sorrows and sufferings. The tempter delights to hear such words. When talking on gloomy subjects, you are glorifying him. We are not to dwell on the great power of Satan to overcome us. Often we give ourselves into his hands by talking of his power. {2MCP 757.3}

Tal om Guds kraft — Når nogen spørger dig, hvordan du har det, så søg ikke at finde noget bedrøveligt at berette for derved at vinde medynk. Tal ikke om din mangel på tro, om dine sorger og lidelser. Fristeren fryder sig, når han hører sådan tale. Når du taler om det, som er trist, så ærer du ham. Vi skal ikke dvæle ved Satans store magt til at overvinde os. Ofte lægger vi os selv i hans hånd ved at tale om hans magt.
