Proverbs 5:6-12 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God says...

Lest you ponder her path of life— Her ways are unstable; You do not know them. Therefore hear me now, my children, And do not depart from the words of my mouth. Remove your way far from her, And do not go near the door of her house, Lest you give your honor to others, And your years to the cruel one; Lest aliens be filled with your wealth, And your labors go to the house of a foreigner; And you mourn at last, When your flesh and your body are consumed, And say: “How I have hated instruction, And my heart despised correction! (Proverbs 5:6-12 NKJV)

He seriously warns that allowing one's mind to consider a temptress' ways would be an act of surrender. God pleads us to hang on to His words and stand our ground. Use wise judgment. Never give an inch to the enemy. Stay clear of her path by staying in the way of The Lord. So, we won't lose the fruits of our labors to the undeserving. And, be filled with regrets when not only we stray from the path of life, but sustain long physical suffering, as well. That is not His plan for us. Let's embrace His precepts. He promised, as it is written: "Walk in obedience to all that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess. (Deuteronomy 5:33 NIV)

And I say, AMEN!
