Watch where your feet go, and be alert!!!

My son,

If sinners entice you, don’t go along with them.

Suppose they say, “Come with us: we’ll ambush somebody

and kill them.  

We’ll waylay some harmless soul, just for fun; 

 

We’ll swallow them alive, like Sh’ol, whole, like those

who descend from the pit.

We’ll find everything he has of value,

We’ll fill our homes with loot!

Throw in your lot with us, we’ll share a common purse.”

My son,

Don’t go along with them.

Don’t set foot on their path.

Their feet fun to evil, they rush to shed blood.

For in vain is the net baited.  If any bird can SEE it;

rather, they are ambushing themselves to shed their own blood,

waylaying themselves. 

So are the ways of the greedy for gain -  

it takes the lives of those who get it.  ((Prov 1:10-15))

================================================

Isn’t it like evil, called the enemy to be subtle and enticing, to tease you into sin?

"Come on, go with us,“ they say!  "Look at the spoils- doesn’t it look easy to get?  It doesn’t matter if the “righteous” are crushed, let’s just get what they have.”  

The enemy, who we call the Devil, does the same thing with our souls.  HE WANTS TO DESTROY and CRUSH the Believer of Jesus Christ.  

 Do you know why???

We have VALUE!!!  This value, the enemy wants to stifle, snub and destroy!  We are clean, and righteous and valuable to the Father, and he isn’t.

Scripture says he kills, steals and destroys.  He tries every way he can to ruin all the goodness of God.  This devil is very real, and his evil is all around us.  He is a greedy one.  The more he destroys the better for him.

But, GREATER IS HE that is in you than he that is in the world!

You, Christian, were bought with a price.  The SHED BLOOD of Jesus Christ! The prayer Jesus prayed to the Father to PROTECT US BY THE POWER OF HIS NAME.  To SUBMIT to God, and the enemy will flee.  To ABIDE IN GOD- and God will ABIDE in us!

The enemy will fall into his own traps.  His path is crooked.  

God will deal with him for scripture states that:

Vengeance belongs to God.  

This is why scripture says: “they waylay themselves!”  No enemy can out power God!  We are covered by the Blood of the Lamb!

For the Christian who walk by faith, our steps are ordered by the Lord, you see.  Whereas, the enemies steps are 'in vain.”   

This enemy has NOTHING of value to share.  What he shares is DEATH, and TRAPS, and bait for the careless who aren’t aware that there is something MUCH BETTER for you.

Call on the name of the Lord, and you shall be saved!!!!

Scripture says in 2 Tim 4:18 that:  “The LORD will rescue me from every evil attack, and bring me safely into His heavenly Kingdom.

To God be the glory, forever and ever.  Amen!!!

Heavenly Father, we pray in Jesus name, a covering of protection that Yeshua prayed over us in 

John 17.  Thank you that YOU EMPOWER US by the Holy Spirit to recognize the pitfalls and traps and nets that the enemy sets before us every chance he gets to cause us to stumble and fall.  Sin is enticing, but YOU are MORE ENTICING, Abba.  Your Word is our prosperity, and peace, and the lighted path for our feet.  We will walk that Highway of Holiness with YOU as our guide!  We thank you for that, Halleluyah!  Praise Your holy name!!!  We pray the same prayer as Yeshua, keep us from the evil one.  In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit who is our guide.  Amen Jesus!!!!  Thank you. Amen.
