Proverbs 24:8-9
He that
deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person.
The thought
of foolishness is sin: and the scorner is an abomination to men.
Someone who
plans to do what God says we should seek to avoid shall be called a mischievous
person. These are not to be our
heroes. There are some novels and
screenplays that involve such a mastermind of wickedness you can wonder if such
ideas were never to be thought out and put in print. The Lord tells us here that even the thought
of foolishness is sin. We can be living
our lives and suddenly we get a thought to do something foolish. If we pay attention to this thought and begin
to devise how we would do it, God calls this sin. When those thoughts come in we must take our
thoughts and begin to control them with the help of the Lord Jesus. We have been given the mind of Christ. Let’s
use it. Forsake foolishness and you will
live. Confess any sort of imaginations
or fantasies that involve being a foolish woman. Think on the things that are pure and devise
ways to do good.
