Since we live in a hedonistic culture without restraint, a culture that encourages us to indulge our every whim, it is vitally important to heed Godly counsel. Proverbs 7 (MSG) says, “Dear friend, do what I tell you; treasure my careful instructions. Do what I say and you’ll live well.” Ignore Godly counsel, follow your own pleasure seeking desires and you will suffer the consequences.
“But the man who commits adultery is an utter fool,
— Proverbs 6:32-33 (NLT)
for he destroys himself.
He will be wounded and disgraced.
His shame will never be erased.”
Lord, convict us of our sinful desires—uproot them. Deliver us from temptation, lest in our selfishness we destroy ourselves and those we love. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.
