Oh, Why Didn’t I Listen To My Teachers? If Only I Had Not Ignored All The Warnings!


Oh, Why Didn’t I Listen
To My Teachers?
If Only I Had Not Ignored All The Warnings!
Scripture
Proverbs 5
For the lips of an immoral woman are as sweet as honey,
    and her mouth is smoother than oil.
Stay away from her!
    Don’t go near the door of her house!
12 You will say, “How I hated discipline!
    If only I had not ignored all the warnings!
13 Oh, why didn’t I listen to my teachers?
    Why didn’t I pay attention to my instructors?
15 Drink water from your own well—
    share your love only with your wife.
16 Why spill the water of your springs in the streets,
    having sex with just anyone?
18 Let your wife be a fountain of blessing for you.
    Rejoice in the wife of your youth.
19 She is a loving deer, a graceful doe.
    Let her breasts satisfy you always.
    May you always be captivated by her love.
20 Why be captivated, my son, by an immoral woman,
    or fondle the breasts of a promiscuous woman?
Observation
Straight talk this morning to us men from the book of Proverbs …
Let your wife be a fountain of blessing for you. Rejoice in the wife of your youth. She is a loving deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts satisfy you always. May you always be captivated by her love. Why be captivated, my son, by an immoral woman, or fondle the breasts of a promiscuous woman?”
Yes, that is straight out of the Bible. Check it out for yourself!
The Liar wants you to believe that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence …
Satan has one main goal and that goal is to destroy your relationship with your spouse and he wants to destroy your family.
Satan wants your children to be raised by multiple sets of parents or be raised alone by Mom.
So lets cultivate the grass on our own side of the fence!
Enjoy your wife today. May you always be captivated by her love.
And Yes, if you are a woman … the same word goes for you too!
Application
I will enjoy my wife today! I will let her captivate me!
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I am so grateful that You brought Kathy into my life when we were just 17 years old. Next to my life in Christ she is the best gift that I have ever received from You! Help me to always be captivated by her love. Don’t ever let me mess up our relationship.
I pray for men and women who are struggling with the idea of looking for the greener grass on the other side of the fence. Help them water and take care of their own grass.
