Learning God’s wisdom prepares you for life. When the temptation moment comes, you will have the tools to make good decisions. Seduction and deception will victimise unprepared people. You have to work hard to prepare yourself before you experience the pressure to do what is not good.
Dear friend, do what I tell you;
treasure my careful instructions.
Do what I say and you’ll live well.
My teaching is as precious as your eyesight—guard it!
Write it out on the back of your hands;
etch it on the chambers of your heart.
Talk to Wisdom as to a sister.
Treat Insight as your companion.
They’ll be with you to fend off the Temptress—
that smooth-talking, honey-tongued Seductress.
(Prov.7:1-5 MSG)
Prayer: Thank You God for your wisdom. You give the knowledge and power I need. Help me to stand strong against temptations to do evil. Help me not to be seduced by a life without God and without values. Help me to see things clearly as they are.
