DAY 5

Focus Scripture Proverb

20 Why be captivated, my son, by an adulteress?
Why embrace the bosom of another man's wife?

21 For a man's ways are in full view of the LORD,
and he examines all his paths.

Reflection: Our proverb today addresses adultery which is voluntary sexual relations between a married person and somebody other than his or her spouse. Marriage is a wonderful thing that should not be spoiled by unfaithfulness however, marriage is a type of covenant. It is very similar to our relationship with Christ. It requires a commitment through heartache, tribulation, success, and triumph. Consider this scenario and question: You are wed to Christ, have you ever committed adultery? Have you ever cheated on the God that you are committed to? If so then the scriptures today are very applicable in your life.

See that Solomon notes that our ways are very visible to God. The things that we think we are getting away with are visible to God. So many of us think that we are getting away with our secret lifestyles and secret habits. Well, God can see your ways and analyzes your path. Consider yourself to be wed to Christ and make sure you are not committing spiritual, mental, or physical, adultery. Work on fully committing. Let go of any secret relationships that cause you to be unfaithful. This could come in the form of people, things, food, anything that causes you to move away from Christ. God see it and desires your commitment.What a brain and mouth full of wisdom for today. Meditate and reflect! look forward to hearing from you all

Be Blessed
