Proverbs 31:2-7 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?
Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:
Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
This is an instruction given by a mother to his son that he should not give his strength to a woman what she is talking about -} is simple all your life don't give it to a woman and I will give you an example.
All woman are beautiful upward but downward they are the same what do I mean by that many man have Falling in to trap because of that other lady. Many rich kings and prince's have make dangerous decision all in the love in other words if you allow it it can get a country born am not saying that all ladies are bad but to men that do commit fornication you are just wasting your time destroying your self. Some have pervart judgment example when you are under the influence of the flesh you can make some certain decision which is very dangerous Jhon the Baptist was supposed to live long but because the king was under the Influence of wine he make some dangerous decision, because his daughter's birthday though he was sorry be have no opportunity to change his decision.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF WE FAIL To LISTEN TO INSTRUCTIONS.
1: It can turn our heart against God.
In 1 Kings 11:1-11 But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;
Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.
And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.
And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.
And the LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,
And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods: but he kept not that which the LORD commanded.
Wherefore the LORD said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.
This is the story of a man who God have given instructions not to love the word but refuse to listen to instructions.
2:it can lead to loss of power. Saw was a man that God also love but he disobey and he listen to the people instead of God so he lost his Kingdom.
3:shift in focuse.
At times when we allow the devil to dominate and when our gaze is not on God any more like before it their will be problem.
4:poverty.
So homes and marriages have been destroyed because of the another woman some walk into poverty by them self all in the name of fornication and adultery.
5:death
Becuse of this also some king have gotten them self into what killed them because they couldn't bear the shame and so on.
The person who lives after the Spirit has crucified the old man of sin. He has put to death the
desire to allow the lusts of the flesh to
direct his life. But the person who lives according to the lusts of the flesh in order to
qfollow his own will is headed for eternal
condemnation
In conclusion
Carnally minded: This is the
mind of the one who focuses on his own
desires. In a religious context, it is the
one who focuses on his own ability to
perform law in order to save himself. The
carnally minded person is walking in sin,
though he may not recognize the fact that
he is in sin.
Spiritually minded: This is
the person who focuses by faith on the
cross and God’s grace. He has life and
peace of mind because he is trusting in
the grace of God and not in his abilities
in reference to law-keeping
