Wednesday, January 8

By fearing Jehovah one turns away from bad.—Prov. 16:6.

 

Satan’s world is obsessed with immoral sex and pornography. (Eph. 4:19) So we must cultivate godly fear and turn away from bad. In Proverbs chapter 9, we read about wisdom and foolishness, personified as two women. Each is described as extending an invitation to the inexperienced—those “lacking good sense.” Each says, as it were, ‘Come into my house and have a meal.’ (Prov. 9:1, 4-6) But there is a vast difference in the results, or outcomes, presented. Consider the invitation from the “stupid woman.” (Prov. 9:13-18) She boldly calls out to those lacking good sense, “Come in here” and feast. With what result? “Those powerless in death are there.” We are warned about “the wayward” and “immoral woman.” We are told: “Her house sinks down into death.” (Prov. 2:11-19) Proverbs 5:3-10 contains an alert about another “wayward woman” whose “feet descend into death.” w23.06 21-22 ¶6-7

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.
