*WAYS OF DARKNESS* (III)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"You will be able to resist any immoral woman who tries to seduce you with her smooth talk, who is faithless to her own husband and forgets her sacred vows."* Proverbs 2:16-17 (GNB)
_Bible Insight:_
A person of insight or discretion and understanding will shun immoral ways. Those who follow the opposite sex as a means of experimenting sexual relations and acts, are void of understanding. They are walking in the ways of darkness.
Those who indulge in using sexual advances to secure advancement in life are without insight and understanding. Those who have perfected the habit of tempting others to fall into sexual perversion lack discretion. Those they succeed in enticing are also without understanding.
I know a young man who allowed himself to be visited by a lady, whom he met on Facebook. He even sent transport fare. The lady was to stay with him for the period of the visit. Of course, they ate the forbidden fruit while at it. They lacked discretion and understanding was far from them.
Those who forget their vows to their spouses or to their maker, and indulge in sexual infidelity are without discretion and understanding. They are following the ways of darkness and will surely end in eternal death if they don't repent!
_MEDITATION:_
*If you go to her house, you are traveling the road to death. To go there is to approach the world of the dead. No one who visits her ever comes back. He never returns to the road to life.* Proverbs 2:18-19 (GNB)

*WAYS OF DARKNESS* (II)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Your insight and understanding will protect you and prevent you from doing the wrong thing. They will keep you away from people who stir up trouble by what they say -- those who find pleasure in doing wrong and who enjoy senseless evil, unreliable people who cannot be trusted."* Proverbs 2:11-12,14-15 (KJV)
_Bible Insight:_
Discretion also refers to insight. You have discretion when you have insight into a matter. Understanding gives you the needed vantage point to make informed decisions.
With insight and understanding, you will shun the path of violence. You will avoid speaking in ways that can lead to trouble. Instead, you will open your mouth and deliver or boost peace.
Insight and understanding makes you a person who will not enjoy or tolerate wrong doing. Anyone who enjoys evil or condones it, lack discretion and understanding.
I know a man who dealt with a man that cannot be trusted. His wife raised concerns but he didn't listen. As you read this, the man is still looking for how to recover about 45 Million Naira he invested in the hands of that fellow. Discretion and understanding keep you from dealing with people who cannot be trusted!
_MEDITATION:_
*Can you be trusted? Or should those who have discretion avoid you?*

*WAYS OF DARKNESS*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness"* Proverbs 2:11-13 (KJV)
_Bible Insight:_
Discretion.
Understanding.
These keep you.
They keep you from evil. They keep you from doing evil. They keep you from following evil examples. They keep you from joining evil associations or friendship.
Discretion & understanding stopped Joseph from fornication or even romance with Potiphar's wife.
Discretion & understanding stopped Daniel & his three friends from eating meats sacrificed to idols & from bowing to the golden image.
Discretion & understanding keep you on the path of uprightness.
_MEDITATION:_
*Those who lack discretion & understanding will definitely walk in the ways of darkness. And they wouldn't even see the darkness while at it, sadly.*

*LISTEN*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"If you listen to me, you will know what is right, just, and fair. You will know what you should do. You will become wise, and your knowledge will give you pleasure. Your insight and understanding will protect you"* Proverbs 2:9-11 (GNB)
_Bible Insight:_
God's protection is enjoyed by those who learn to listen to him. Listen!
Knowing what is right, just and fair is for those who listen to God's word. You don't know what is right by relying on anything other than God's word. If you follow world people, you will miss God's leading. Listen!
Wisdom and pleasurable knowledge is for those who have cultivated a lifestyle of listening to God and His word. Listen!
When you are a listener, you will gain insight and understanding by which you secure divine protection. Listen!
_MEDITATION:_
*God's protection is not Magic. It is a system designed for those who are led by the Spirit. Listen*

*HE PROTECTS THE SELFLESS & GODLY*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"He protects those who treat others fairly, and guards those who are devoted to him."* Proverbs 2:8 (GNB)
_Bible Insight:_
THE world is not what it used to be in so many ways. It is now very difficult to help people. Godly people are seen as weaklings and foolish. Those who are rough and hard to deal with are seen as wise and smart.
In the midst of these, we are reminded that God still protects those who treat others fairly or go out of their way to help others.
You can trust God's protection. You don't have to stop doing good for fear of evil, jealous people. You dont have to stop living right for fear of being taken advantage of.
_MEDITATION:_
*God can be trusted to take care of you while you do good and remain devoted to him.*

*HE HELPS THE HONEST*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"He provides help and protection for those who are righteous and honest."* Proverbs 2: 7 (GNB)
_Bible Insight:_
Proverbs 2:6 It is the LORD who gives wisdom; from him come knowledge and understanding.
True wisdom and knowledge and understanding comes from God.
It is also very interesting to dwell with the knowledge and understanding or wisdom that God helps the honest and righteous.
I heard someone say that the Bible says the righteous are as bold as lion. However things have been so twisted that the unrighteous are now even as bold as the righteous if not more. ?
Even though this may appear true as a fact, we must remember that the truth remains that God is still in the business of helping those who choose to remain righteous and honest.
_MEDITATION:_
*In a world where sometimes dishonesty pays even more, make up your mind to remain honest and be helped by God as you do.*

*FOR THE LORD GIVETH WISDOM*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly."* Proverbs 2:6-7 (KJV)
_Bible Insight:_
Remember that the lord does not give wisdom to just any other person...
He sees through your singing, that,"All I need is you" you are singing is not going to deceive God.
Even your praying like the lastest pastor in town may not move God.
What will move God is your receiving, hiding, inclining, applying, crying after, and seeking & searching must be engaged before we finally truly understand....
_MEDITATION:_
*Proverbs 2:8 (KJV) He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.*
Are you one?

*When You Finally Understand*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God."* (Proverbs 2:5 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Receiving, Hiding, Inclining, applying, crying after, and Seeking & Searching must be engaged before we finally truly understand....
This means a Christian who is not like the bearean Christian,
Who is not able to make time daily to seek God in word and prayers
Who is not ready to spare some minutes to read the bible daily and study it regularly
Who is not ready to attend bible study sessions and Sunday school classes in addition to sunday services
Who is not ready to meditate in God's word
Who is not ready to hide and apply God's word
Who is not ready to try to teach others God's words..
Who is not ready to spend on resources, materials, Christian books, etc that will help him know Christ better
That kind of person will be far from understanding the fear of the Lord and finding the knowledge of God.
_MEDITATION:_
*Are you sure you are really ready to know the Lord?!*

*Seek and Search*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures"* (Proverbs 2:4 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Receiving, Hiding, Inclining, applying, crying after, is not enough. ?
The level of Seeking and Searching.
You must get to the level of seeking and searching. But that is not the complete picture.
Because the way you search for wood and clay is different from the way you search for silver and gold. Hmm mm
You can find wood and clay easily. But to find silver and gold, you go the extra mile and you engage certain machines and tools.
We must so seek and search for God's knowledge that we engage our resources in the process.
If the pursuit of the knowledge of God does not cost you time, sleep, transportation fare, going to church or bible study, or clearing your 24 hours daily with some time allotted to God...
If your pursuit of God does not equal or surpass how much you seek for employment, then, you are not yet reaching the picture painted by Proverbs 2:4.
_MEDITATION:_
*Receiving, Hiding, Inclining, applying, crying after, as well as Seeking and Searching can work simultaneously. Remember that too!*

*Cry After*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding"* (Proverbs 2:3 (KJV)
_Bible Insight:_
Two more things you must learn to do with God's wisdom:
After receiving and hiding Gods word, you become
Receiving, Hiding, Inclining and applying is not enough.
Take up a desperate measure of crying after knowledge of God.
This connotes asking questions.
Taking extra measures like, taking courses, attending bible classes, doing everything that will give you greater insight and knowledge.
Crying after also means making it your prayer both unto men and God- Especially God.
Cry out after knowledge. Stop being cool about it. Be hungry enough to cry after God.
_MEDITATION:_
*That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death* (Philippians 3:10 (KJV))
