Proverbs - Spiritual Fear and Spiritual Ears



Proverbs 14:16

A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil:
but the fool rageth, and is confident.

Our days should be those in which we are sensitive to the fact that we do not obey the Lord naturally.  We naturally go our own ways.  This should produce in us a fear – hesitancy and caution when dealing with our natural responses.  We must know that we have the opportunity to destroy and tear down all that the Lord is building in our lives.  This will cause us to take our steps purposefully and with a spiritual ear inclined to His voice.  If we are women who taste of the forbidden fruit of self-confidence, we, like Eve, will hand death and destruction to all those around us.  Ladies, there will be snares and traps your adversary will put before you today.  When we fear the Lord, we depart from evil.  We understand that our days are before us and only our God sees clearly enough to give us the wisdom and direction we need to avoid and depart from evil.  Lord, help us be women who fear You, depart from evil, do not rage and renounce any sort of self-confidence.
