Proverbs
23:27 "...a strange woman.(original
Hebrew is 'stranger', 'alien').is
a narrow pit.".A
woman is often alien to that which she cannot control, does not take effort
to comprehend
and underrates
that which she cannot possess.
An alien woman to you would
be one that you just don't match up with. You have to really consider any
potential mate. Sort of hold them out in front of you in your mind and
see if you feel comfortable warm and happy or upset and
disconcerted.
Couple this with 2Corinthians
6:14 and you may arrive at: A woman who is a stranger to you, one you
do not really know.(remember
many {not all, see...}
play
games and use their charm to pump a man's ego.for
selfish reasons.including
achieving control and money; avoid manipulative women by thinking about
her to see if you are comfortable with her; if not, run),
is a woman to stay away from:.Proverbs
5:3-13,20;
2:16;
6:24-29.
An evil woman like Jezebel.(2Kings
9:22).might
try to lead you away from being a true spiritual person, towards her way
of thinking:.1Kings
16:31-33; 18:4; 21:25.
Jezebel was a controlling influence over the king.(1Kings
21:7,15).and
others in power:.1Kings
21:21. There were many evil women
then.
What did God think of Jezebel?.1Kings
21:23;
Revelation 2:20.
How
Jezebel reaped what she sowed.
Jezebel seems like a woman
who 'just had to be right' according to how she saw things. It's
more important to be harmonious.
Even more important is walking
in the light of the Lord:.Isaiah
2:5,6 "O house of Jacob, come you and let us walk in the light
of the Lord. "Therefore you have forsaken thy people the house
of Jacob, because they be replenished
from the east and are soothsayers.(one
who pretends
to prognosticate.future
events).like
the Philistines
and they please themselves in the children of strangers." Deuteronomy
18:21,22 "And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the word
which the Lord has not spoken? When a prophet speaks in the name of the
Lord, if the thing follows not nor comes to pass, that is the thing which
the Lord has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously.
You shall not be afraid of him."
Many, not knowing the
Great Infinite One today and therefore not receiving the guidance
from God made possible by the Holy Spirit indwelling them, are relying
on predictions they hear from psychics.
Avoid resentful,
hate filled persons of malice:.Proverbs
30:23;.21:9,19;
25:24.
Resentment
is anger awaiting retrieval
and kills present
minded awareness, poisons one's psyche,
precipitates
disease and shoves others away. Resentment is perpetual.hatred,
ever waiting for opportunity to express and/or be reinforced.-.gossip
anyone?
With some women and even
some men, almost all they do is done out of resentment. If you resent someone,
it's easier to have hate and be deceitful to them. Examples of these
persons of resentment.
Just like pulling a cart
full of heavy rocks, resentful people continue to drag emotional burdens
through the garden of life. They just can't seem to live in and appreciate
the present. No wonder cancer, heart disease and the like comes along.
Whatever is eating you mentally will eventually eat you physically. What
eats you mentally is past negatives and worry over the future.
Resentment comes from stagnant
echos of old memories brought forth to poison the present. A Bob
Proctor quote from page 173 in the
free book for you:."Many
of us spend most of our present moments floundering mentally in the time
zone of the dead and should-be-forgotten past."
Some women view men with
disdain.
Time may heal their wounds, but won't beautify their faces. How do you
recognize such? It matters not what's on a woman's face but what's seen
in it! If there's a smile in her heart, her face will show it! If there
is a hidden agenda.(like,
'how much is he good for?').behind
the smile, time will bring out the real heart if you don't detect it immediately.(Luke
8:17; 1Timothy 5:24,25).and
all the much quicker the more intuition
and/or clairvoyance
one possesses to be able to detect
these types of negative.qualities
in another.
A bitter person
does
not even love self. They have not forgiven others; they cannot forgive
themselves. Some people having been abused or turned off at a certain stage
in life remain stuck at that level.
Bitter people often feel unworthy and do not believe others when they say
that they love them. They cannot seem to love. They even fight it off.
Such is the
way of being imprisoned within the walls of resentment, mistrust and
bitterness.
In
men this is often seen as sabotage or malicious infliction of damage
to another. Abusers have this makeup.
In
women, it is often expressed in discontentment,
depression
and disconnection from reality, leading to abuse of their children, husband,
and other loved ones. Help is often sought for these types of things in
many
places for what really can easily be taken care of at
the cross. When you know you are in a right stead with the Creator,
it's easier to decide to forgive others and yourself too.
There are the takers and
the givers, 'people are there for me to use to support my lifestyle' as
opposed to 'my lifestyle is a means by which I can help and uplift others'.
One cannot enjoy life with
another who has an unforgiving
attitude. One looking to be and remain a spiritual person for sufficiency
in all things.(2Corinthians
9:8).will
never feel like they have 'had it up to here'.
Also avoid
clamorous
women:.Proverbs
9:13; 10:18.
And obstinate
ones that are embarrassing:.Esther
1:10-12,
15-22.
Beware also of cunning
women.(Job
31:9-12; 1Timothy 2:12-14
{the word 'usurp'}).who
turn on you when they don't get what they want, like what
happened to Joseph.
And, when is
death
better?.Ecclesiastes
7:26,28. Beware of the woman who tells you what to do apart from being
a helpful participant in what you may be doing.
Lady Astor once said to Winston
Churchill at a party."Sir,
if you were my husband, I would put poison in your tea.".To
which Churchill retorted."And
Madame, if you were my wife, I would drink it!"
And the women who like to
tell you what to do, who feel that 'they know best'. And at times they
do exhibit valuable insight! They sense things in their own precious way.
But the consideration of
the deeper wisdom of God, how He just may be leading them in life and which
decisions He is going to work out and/or bless, must be gained:.Proverbs
16:9; 25:2;
21:2.
The Infinite One has His reasons for being
this way:.Proverbs
16:2; 17:3.
Eve was influencingAdam
to do what he knew he should not, but did anyway:.Genesis
3:2-6.(notice
how easily influenced, how easily deceived {1Timothy
2:14} that she was and how.sure
that she was right.in
what course of action she was advising him to take).
Not having the circumspection
that the Spirit of God gives, one fails to see what another really is like
in heart. As a result, one is also highly subject to
being deceived.
Let's hear it for so-called
woman's intuition; they just keep going out with the same kind of abusive
guy time and again. Hey! There just ain't no effective intuition
there!
Avoid the
avaricious
woman.(Proverbs
5:3-13).who
has got dollar signs in her eyes, the woman who sees you only as opportunity
for money to fulfil.her.lifestyle.
She just might sell
you 'down the river' like the bitch Delilah did to Samson:.Judges
16:4-21. Note especially what this incredibly evil woman had the gall
to say in verses 10,13,15,18.
The story continues on from verse
22. See the Samson movie
on Netflix.
