Proverbs 7:6-10 “For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, Passing through the street near her corner, and he went the way to her house, In the twilight in the evening, in the black and dark night: And behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.”
When anyone goes out into the world without the proper training from God’s Word, he is like a sailor setting out on a voyage without a compass, life jacket, or means to bilge out water taken onboard. So many of our young people face this today; their parents could not, would not, or were not able to convince the young people what they will face in the world.
Youthful lusts particularly get God’s children caught up sneaking around, with the wrong crowd, and putting themselves in harm’s way. Sure enough, we can expect Satan to show up in the same way he did in Eden
Lord, we love You today and know that Satan seeks to lure and trick us into falling away from You. Help us, Lord, to hold up truth, honor, love, and peace to those we meet. Keep us safe from the wrong crowds and their teachings. For Your service we live. Amen
