Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul. (Pro 22:25)
Faith is to actively believe that He will keep us and our
responsible response to His promise is to not walk out of His covering. It is
relatively easy to want Jesus covering, but can constantly wrestle away Christ
from reigning in our heart. The cross
prescribed by Jesus will help us mature beyond the external and internalizing
the eternal reality of being a son of God.
Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man
thou shalt not go: (Pro 22:24)
Uncontrollable passion with either right or wrong motives is
liken to a city without walls open to attacks. The leading of the Spirit of God
is one of self control because it’s the demonstration of Christ reigning in our
heart. Unbridled passion is a fire out of its proper place damaging anything in
its way. The problem is not just the person getting hurt, but also end up
selfishly hurting others around.
