And here's a warning to men
Proverbs 5
Bible says in verse 15. This is where men fail. Okay
Let's you know drink waters out of thine own cistern and running waters out of thine own well verse 15
Let the fountains be dispersed abroad and rivers of waters in the streets. Let them be only thine own and not
strangers with thee
Let thy fountain be blessed and rejoiced with the wife of thy youth
Let her be as the loving hind in the pleasant row
Let her breast satisfy thee at all times and be thou ravished always with her love
Husband be faithful love your wife. Don't be going after other women, you know, don't be looking at other women
and
And thou and look at verse 20 says and why wilt thou my son be ravished with a strange woman and embrace the bosom of
Stranger for the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord. See God's watching what we do
He's watching where our eyes are watching and he pondereth all his goings and you know
Our wife ponders all of our goings too. Okay, our wife's eyes ponder where our eyes are wandering to
Let's keep that in mind. Not only is your wife watching but God's watching
Malachi chapter 2 I'm running out of time
So I'm just gonna steamroll through this but Malachi chapter 2 if you're taking notes now, okay chapter 2 verse 11
Bible says Judah hath dealt treacherously
Treacherously and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the Lord
Which he loved and hath married the daughter of a strange God
the Lord will cut off the man that doeth this the master and the scholar out of the
Tabernacles of Jacob and him that offerth an offering unto the Lord of hosts and
This have you done again covering the altar of the Lord with tears with weeping in with crying
Crying out as in so much that he regardeth not the offering anymore or receiveth it
Receiveth it with good will at your hand
verse 14
Yet you say wherefore because the Lord hath been witnessed between thee and the wife of thy youth
Against whom thou has dealt treacherously
Yet is she thy companion and the wife of thy covenant
Okay, don't build treacherously with the wife of thy covenant that marriage covenant that God expects us to keep
man and wife
Fulfilling our roles and did he not make one verse 15?
Yet had he the residue of the Spirit and wherefore one that he might seek a godly seed
Therefore take heed to your spirit and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth
For the Lord the God of Israel saith he hateth putting away. God hates the putting away. He hates divorce
Okay
For the Lord God of Israel has said he hateth putting away. He hates it God hates it
So who are we to say that we're gonna get a divorce
