TOPIC: The House That Houses The Way To Hell

Her house is the way to hell, Descending to the chambers of death. Proverbs 7:27

*Message*

*In ensuring you won't defile yourself with what the Holy Spirit doesn't like, you have to always intentionally avoid places with the inherent ability to lure you into sin. While God is everywhere, He chose not to manifest everywhere. There are certain demonic-infested places with erotic atmospheres (night clubs, brothels, lousy night parties, drinking bars, etc) that are satan's domain. God hates such places as they are dirty, and you being a child of God should have nothing to do around them for your own good.*

In Proverbs 7, the wise writer was describing an incident where a harlot was wooing a young man for immoral purposes. From verse 6, the writer describes the numerous attempts and strategies the seductress employed in successfully luring the poor guy. For instance, she invested and dressed erotically, she gave him an enticing speech, etc. But all of her actions wouldn't have achieved her desired results if he hadn't agreed to go to her house.

*"...he went after her (to her house), as an ox goes to the slaughter..." Proverbs 7:22*

Her house is the house of sin, where the way of hell resides. This is the devil's domain where folks who patronize the pleasures therein bow to him and become his slaves. Unfortunately, the devil is a terrible master. Go to his domain to get pleasures that last for just 5 seconds, and he forces you to trade your soul as payment.

Hence, don't visit places and venues where God is not glorified, and flee from the house of sin. This also applies to those in a romantic boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Since being alone in a closed room will prompt you and the other person to engage in sinful sexual acts, then that room is also a house that leads to hell. Hence, avoid such settings.

As a believer, give priority to Christian gatherings, as well as other great locations (such as productive seminars and workshops) that help you positively in life.

*Confession*
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. My feet won't be found on pathways that doesn't glorify God.

*Further Reading*
Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. Isaiah 5:14
