Blindly walking leads to destruction
Proverbs 7:6-7, For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
Solomon is standing at his window looking out across the town below. He sees a man who is blindly looking and lusting at a prostitute. What he needs to be doing is running for his life. Instead, he is trapped by the woman’s dress or lack thereof, her smooth talk, and lying tongue ending up in her bed.
There are a few things he could have done to prepare for this temptation. He could have looked into the Word instead of looking at her. He could have learned the Word instead of listening to her. He could have longed after the Word instead of lusting after her.
Child of God, you do not have to blindly walk into destruction. The choices you make today will either guide you in God’s holiness or they will leave you looking for the next new thing. That does not have to be you. You could just follow God’s Will in faith and flee. Or you can continue in that sin letting it drag you into destruction! The choice is yours.
