TOPIC: Danger Of Adultery (DCLM  Daily Manna 22 October 2024)

KEY VERSE: “He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life” – Proverbs 7:22,23

TEXT: Proverbs 7:6-23 (KJV)

6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,

7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

8 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,

9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:

10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.

11 (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:

12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)

13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,

14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.

15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.

16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt.

17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.

19 For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:

20 He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.

21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;

23 Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.

DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:

Adultery in contemporary times has become so pervasive that it no longer carries the stigma of guilt and embarrassment that should be associated with it. It has been labelled with more appealing titles such as “affairs” or “relationships,” making it more acceptable in society. However, this does not erase the danger and calamity associated with its negative consequences. Many homes have been broken, lives cut short and reputations and careers destroyed as its aftermath, apart from the grave consequence of eternity in hell for all adulterers.

Today’s passage reveals that the steps to adultery are gradual and sometimes appear innocuous, but are lethal in their consequences. The adulterer is a subtle destroyer, taking advantage of the gullible prey by appealing to their base nature and luring such into the pit of destruction. The passage shows that the “simple” who is devoid of understanding is the prey that is carried away by the sights that dazzle and the tempting sounds of the adulterer.

The adulterers walk the streets and workplaces seductively seeking to entrap the opposite gender. Others come subtly, with gentle and kind dispositions.

To escape the trap of adultery, one must be genuinely saved, fortified through the word of God in the heart, avoid undue intimacy with the opposite gender, and be wary of unsolicited but suggestive gifts and gestures. Such a person must also avoid careless visitations, watching of pornographic videos or pictures on television or social media. Finally, he or she should pray fervently because Jesus encouraged us to “watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.”
