RTW Teaching-January 27

What if…

“I made a covenant with my eyes not to look
with lust at a young woman.”
Job 31:1

 


My Take Aways

Something Old:

What if I made a covenant with my eyes, ears, tongue, heart, mind, hands, and feet?

Lust-should think about:
consider, discern, instruct, act wisely, consider carefully, paid attention to; give heed to

Oh be careful

  • eyes what you see
  • ears what you hear
  • tongue what you say
  • mind what you think
  • heart who you trust
  • hands what you do
  • feet where you go

What if I lived like I believed God did see every step I took?

Something New:

31:40
Job’s words ended.

I need to know when to end my words.

Something to Do:

Make covenant.

Every Step I Take and Move I Make

“Does He not see everything I do and every step I take?”
Job 31:4

 

 

My Take-Aways:

Something Old:
Job 31:4
“Everything” means just that, everything. “Every” means just that, every.

Something New:
Job 31:5-43
All the things I should be doing.

Something to Do:
I need to be more aware of “everything” I do and “every” step I take.
