Proverbs 16:29-30 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God says...

“A violent man entices his neighbor, And leads him in a way that is not good. He winks his eye to devise perverse things; He purses his lips and brings about evil.” (Proverbs 16:29, 30 NKJV)

He alerts us of another type of person to stay clear from, with whom we should not have any semblance at all nor have anything to do with. Such person has diverse tricks and mischiefs under his sleeves, which he uses with skillful subtlety for insinuations to provoke evil conflicts and discords. The careless and undiscerning neighbor, who walks not by the way of The Lord, often fall into their trap and trickery. Without the guidance of the Holy Spirit, while starved from neglect of regular intake of God's holy and written Word - even those who profess as religious Christians, will be enticed to relent to their evil ways. For that reason, Lord Jesus gives this warning to His disciples and to all who are saved and reborn by faith in Him: "Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41 ESV)

It is God's desire for us to be strengthened by His word, resting in His grace. And, He gives His assurance to settle us firmly where we are. By His presence, He shields us! It is written: “But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.” (2 Thessalonians 3:3 NKJV)

And I say, AMEN!

(When God says... I say, AMEN! is a provocative reflection of the Lord's holy Word. It intends to challenge every seeker of truth to dig deep into the core of the Word of Life to point every being to Christ Jesus - the author and finisher of our faith, and to draw revelations for change, for nourishment and for strength of every soul.)
