The Prostitute

Chapter 7 is a memorable one for me. The enticing woman who attracts the wayward man with her exported Egyptian comforter, rose pedals, and perfumes. Yikes!

It's cool to me that these kind of temptations were around thousands of years ago. God clearly knows of what we have to deal with as a soceity.

I told ya'll about my choices in the past and so this hit home to me. We have to flee these types of people like the swine flu.

Ways to avoid the temptress:

1) Pray
2) Memorize applicable scripture
3) Have serious accountability with someone
4) Don't walk on the street late at night when you know she will be out there tempting you... in other words, don't put yourself in a situation where you will be tempted and expect you are strong enough to resist it. I know what experience... YOU CAN"T
