Proverbs 6 : 16 - 19

Proverbs 6 taken from The Message

^16-19 Here are six things God hates,
    and one more that he loathes with a passion:

eyes that are arrogant,
a tongue that lies,
hands that murder the innocent,
a heart that hatches evil plots,
feet that race down a wicked track,
a mouth that lies under oath,
a troublemaker in the family.

Things that the Lord detests:

A heart that hatches evil plots: A heart, as the seat of our emotions, our moral character and passions----hatching evil plots.   This very same heart that we are writing the precepts of Wisdom on- is capable of such evil.  This human heart of ours has to take responsibility for concentration camps and wars of hate and discrimination.  This human heart is capable of violence and gross perversity.  This heart of ours is a battleground that needs to be guarded.

A heart committed to doing evil, hatching plans and schemes to divide the Body. 
Feet that race down a wicked track: Feet that are impetuous in embracing evil., trouble and mischief.
A mouth that lies under oath,  We are brought back to the lying tongue, and the importance of our word and our promises.
A troublemaker in the family, one that divides rather than encourages and unifies.

The body is meant to be unified and operate as one.  To walk out the Glory of the Lord on Earth, embracing His lost sheep and making disciples out of nations. When one comes into the body that is bent on division, havoc is wreaked.

We are responsible for our thoughts, our actions, our intent and our promises. All of these have to come under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.  Operating this vessel of mine through the treachery of the World, truly, becomes possible only with Wisdom as my guide!
