These six things the Lord hates, indeed, seven are an abomination to Him: A proud look [the spirit that makes one overestimate himself and underestimate others], a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, [Ps. 120:2, 3.] A heart that manufactures wicked thoughts and plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, A false witness who breathes out lies [even under oath], and he who sows discord among his brethren. My son, keep your fathers [God-given] commandment and forsake not the law of [God] your mother [taught you]. [Eph. 6:1-3.] Bind them continually upon your heart and tie them about your neck. [Prov. 3:3; 7:3.] When you go, they [the words of your parents God] shall lead you; when you sleep, they shall keep you; and when you waken, they shall talk with you. For the commandment is a lamp, and the whole teaching [of the law] is light, and reproofs of discipline are the way of life, [Ps. 19:8; 119:105.] (Proverbs 6:16-23 AMP) I kept rereading this and I and even more drawn to it more than ever. God is telling us what He hates to everything God hates there are the opposite to the things He loves. When you read His hates you can flash back to the 10 commandments which are safe guards to keep us from the things God hates. Now many may see it as a list of donts but I see it as a list of how to love your fellow brothers and sisters. What I am learning is it is your perspective on a situation that shows your success in a situation. I thank God He is showing me what He hates so I can stay away from them so I can do the things He loves. #Proverbschallenge #day6 #thiswordischangingme
