God Made Man: Discovering Your Purpose預覽

To preserve you from the evil woman, from the smooth tongue of the adulteress. Do not desire her beauty in your heart, and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes; for the price of a prostitute is only a loaf of bread, but a married woman hunts down a precious life. Can a man carry fire next to his chest and his clothes not be burned? Or can one walk on hot coals and his feet not be scorched?

Proverbs 6:24-29

Dear God, 

I pray for our brothers seeking marital purity, but who are stuck with the black mark of unconfessed adultery. One in four husbands cheats on the woman they swore before You to love, honor, and cherish. 

Father, there are many reasons why our brothers wander away from the gift You gave them, but help them to know that no excuses are acceptable in Your eyes. Help them to see also that their actions are forgivable sins, but that they must trust You to confess in sincerity and reform. 

Only You can change the desires of a willing heart. I pray for this generation of men to stand beside their wives and resist the temptations. 

In the precious name of Jesus, we pray, Amen

Manly Challenge

Write out the name of the last person you felt hatred for. What made you so furious, and how did you get over it? You did, didn’t you?
