Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones. Proverbs 3:7,8
Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones. Proverbs 3:7,8
The beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord, to revere this awesome God who holds our very lives in His hands! To depart from evil is wisdom because if you walk in disobedience, you open the doors for evil (demons) to enter your body!
I can't tell you how many people I have dealt with over the years who had arthritis and other auto-immune diseases caused by unforgiveness. If we don't forgive God won't forgive us! Cancer is another result of holding unforgiveness, bitterness or animosity in your heart against someone!
Someone has hurt you or has done you wrong as country music has said in a million old songs! But the truth is that hurt or wound left unattended will begin to sprout a root of bitterness that leads to unforgiveness, disease and even death!
Pursue peace with all people and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord; looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled. Hebrews 12:14,15
