Feet #2

The bible makes it very clear of us about what are feet are supposed to do, here are a couple of easy scriptures to follow:

Job 23:11

11 My foot has held fast to His steps;
I have kept His way and not turned aside.

The His mentioned here is God....first hold onto what God did! Follow the steps of Jesus as He is our example for life. A few of those steps according to scripture are these: obedience to God's Word, compassion, forgiveness, zeal to do the father's business, mercy, patience, self, control, grace given to others, humility, and love to all are a few of the examples that Jesus set for us. The second part of the verse goes on to say keep the ways of God and don't let your feet run away from these ways!!!! Control your steps brothers and sisters!

Another scripture:

Proverbs 1:10-15

10 My son, if sinners entice you,
Do not consent.
11 If they say, “Come with us,
Let us lie in wait to shed blood;
Let us lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;
12 Let us swallow them alive like Sheol,[a]
And whole, like those who go down to the Pit;
13 We shall find all kinds of precious possessions,
We shall fill our houses with spoil;
14 Cast in your lot among us,
Let us all have one purse”—
15 My son, do not walk in the way with them,
Keep your foot from their path;

Run Forest run!!!!! When folks are leading you to the path of sin....do not follow! Get out of there! It reminds me of what Joseph did when Potiphar's wife was trying to seduce him:

Genesis 39:11-12

11 But it happened about this time, when Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house was inside, 12 that she caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me.” But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran outside.

Joseph got out of there!!!! We need to do the same when sin is crouching at our door!

Folks we are in control through the power of the Holy Spirit over sin, use those feet and flee from it!
