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.
