As we actively keep the Word of God, it will actively keep us: leading us, guarding us, and speaking to us. If we allow it to show and correct our way, it can protect us from the sin of adultery and its terrible consequences.

In this sermon, we receive a solemn warning to avoid the flattery and allure of “a strange woman.” The consequences of a relationship with her are destruction and disaster. Furthermore, she is a type or a picture of the “strange woman” of Revelation: MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT.

In this passage of Proverbs, Solomon continues to lay out the wisdom of following the Lord according to his Word. We find eight Biblical responsibilities for the Believer which result in six blessings in our walk with Christ.

The promise of this passage is that If we will receive God’s wisdom, then it will protect us from the evil man and the strange woman. We must walk with God else wicked temptations lead us astray!

In this sermon, we see Paul’s yearning to see the Thessalonians again and prove out their faith. When he receives a good report from his disciple Timothy, he rejoices and thanks the Lord in prayer. By staying focused on the Judgment Seat of Christ in prayer, we resist Satan’s temptations and glorify God with our lives.
