Shunning evil

"There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil." Job 1.1

Three characteristics of those born of the Spirit: they are honest and upright, they fear God and they shun evil.
Honesty and uprightness are related to our conduct towards other people. The fear of God relates to our conduct towards the Lord or the practice of His Word. The rejection of evil has to do with our conscience, when we avoid places and situations that have nothing to do with faith.

Ponder

"Ponder the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established. Do not turn to the right or the left; remove your foot from evil."
Provérbios 4:26-27

When taking an initiative or making a choice, ponder well, and above all, with the fear of God inside you. Life today depends on decisions made yesterday; life tomorow will depend on decisions made today.
