Do not enter the path of the wicked,
And do not walk in the way of evil. (Proverbs 4:14 NKJV)
PROVERBS 4 IN ITS ENTIRETY.
Thought For The Week: As a parent have you ever told your children that certain people are a ‘bad influence’ on them? If so, then this proverb should resonate with you. Even our Heavenly Father warns us not to follow the ways of the bad influence. Each step on a wrong path leads further from the path of truth and closer to ruin. So we must be watchful to avoid even the first step down such a road.
Prayer: Father God, please watch over my steps as I walk with You. Please teach me to walk in all wisdom and truth. Give me discernment to recognize paths that lead to destruction, and grant me power in Your Spirit to resist the temptation to follow those paths. And above all, please remain near me as I walk with You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
