The Way Of A Winner

“My son if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.  If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause: Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit: We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our house with spoil: Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse: My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path: For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.”

Proverbs 1:10-16

The way of a winner is not found on the path of the sinners.  With their words, they will entice you and with their actions, they will ensnare you and your life will be dramatically and horribly affected.  The devil is a liar and his schemes and dirty plans are meant to bring destruction and defeat.  No good has ever come from the promises of the devil.  The devil and sin can be likened to a movie set of an old western movie.  It looks real when in reality it is a farce.  It is not what it appears to be.

I pray that if there are any young people who are reading this, you will take serious the words from our Scripture today.  Every one of us has a decision to make every morning when we wake up.  Will we follow the Word of God and His direction for our day or will we walk in the flesh and seek after our own way.  When we choose to obey and follow the commandments of the Lord, our lives will be built on bed rock and not a sand pile.  If you want to go the right way and if you want a life that is pleasing to the Lord, you will take note of three instructions that are like nuggets of gold in our passages today.

I. Consent not- The Bible says, “The wicked worketh a deceitful work” (Proverbs 11:18a).  Don’t be drawn in or fooled by their enticing words and ungodly plan. Destruction is their destiny.

II. Cast not- Don’t have any part in any plan of the wicked.  Remember, “He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour” (Proverbs 21:21).  There is no honor found with any plan of the wicked only heartache.

III. Walk not- We need to refrain our feet from the path of sinners-So we need to think before we take the first step.  Solomon wrote “Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established” (Proverbs 4:26). When we ponder our steps we will be sure to know what path to take.

These are the three actions, that if we will put them into action, we will be sure to counter the ungodly plans of the sinners.   Be wise and follow the Lord and His directions and instructions for your life and you will know the winners way.
