Please guard your eyes

Edited by Adeze Ojukwu

“I have made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I look upon a virgin?“ Job 31:1

By making a covenant with his eyes, Job had drawn his line of defense around his heart. He was guarding his soul by disciplining his eyes.

Psalm 101:3 "I will not set before my eyes anything that is vile.” We can choose which magazine to look at, or which TV show or movie to watch.

David fell into adultery because he didn’t turn away when he saw a woman bathing. He was not a weak man but he had a moment of weakness. Eventually, this relationship ruined his family, his children and later his country as well. When adultery walks in everything else that is worthwhile walks out.

Today, let’s make a covenant with our eyes like Job did, ask the Holy Spirit to help us in areas we are weak repent of any addictions to pornography or other kinds of activities and preserve us and our family.
