Daily Devotions
February 18th, 2016 by Pastor SolleyProv 22:1-3 A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
2 The rich and poor meet together: the Lord is the maker of them all.
3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
KJV
How many times do you watch people run headlong into trouble? The Bible tells us that the prudent man sees trouble coming and hides from it while the foolish pass on and fall into trouble. I watch many people who know better because they have been brought up under the teaching of the Bible, many who claim to be saved, turn aside from the path of truth and run towards trouble in their lives. Christian young people who begin to date lost people claiming that they are good to them, that they love them, get married and then the trouble begins. I watch Christian young people make the people of the world their best friends, they can change them and they do nothing to harm them, but then I see the trouble follow as they fall into alcohol and drugs. I see people who know that the Bible says living together outside of marriage and then the trouble begins. What changes in a man or woman, young or old, that causes them to run towards trouble instead of away from it? One needs to remember that the Bible never changes and God never changes and learn from the examples found in the sacred book. See the evil that is pointed out in the Bible and run from it, not towards it.
