"My child, if sinners entice you, turn your back on them!”
We need to start living our lives with understanding and wisdom. There is no opening for us to be caught off guard when it comes to right and wrong. When we accept Jesus as Lord and Savior we receive the gift of the Holy Spirit and He will guide us to know what is right and wrong through the word of God. 2 Timothy chapter 3 verse 16 says, “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.”
As we grow we must be in God's word seeking wisdom so we know what is right and wrong for our lives. When we grow and mature in who we are in Christ we can see when the world is trying to sidetrack us to follow it's prompting. Let's look at Proverbs chapter 1 verse 10 again and understand it, “My child, if sinners entice you, turn your back on them!” We need to love people but our reverent fear of the Lord needs to guide us to choose life when the world is showing us to choose death. As for wisdom, seek it with all your heart, ask God to show you wisdom daily so this world is a place that doesn't affect us but the power of the Holy Spirit in us guides us to affect the world for Christ. Amen
