30 Day Challenge: A Walk Through ProverbsНамуна
Day Seven
Read Proverbs 7
This chapter tells a story of a young man who is lured in by an adulteress, and a father pleading his son to not stray down that same path. If you look at verses one through five, there are many action words that the father uses. There is effort and dedication that is needed in these—it is not easy! But when we act out of wisdom, when we know what the Bible says and can live by it, we can avoid a lot of trouble.
Reflect
What are the action words that the father in the passage uses?
Engage
What do you think it means to treasure up commandments?
How are we supposed to treat wisdom according to this passage (verse 4)?
An Extra Mile
Read Deuteronomy 6:4-9. What do these verses tell us about God’s commandments? How can we practice what they tell us in our own lives?

About this Plan
Oftentimes life looks like an open road and we aren’t sure which way it will turn. Other times, we feel like we are in control of where we are heading—no need to stop for directions. As believers, we must make sure that our GPS is programmed to the Word. God is our ultimate guide through the journey; He is the Creator of the road itself.
