It will save you also from the adulteress, from the wayward wife with her seductive words,
who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God.
For her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead.
None who go to her return or attain the paths of life.
Proverbs 2:16-19

A few weeks ago, my wife and I were traveling home in a snow storm. A three hour trip took us seven hours. Along the way we saw cars and trucks in the ditches of an interstate highway. Each vehicle in the ditch was a reminder that if I wasn’t extremely careful with how I drove given the incredibly slow conditions, we could easily end up in the ditch too.

We need not look far in our culture to see the devastation that adultery and “fooling around” has wrought. Ladies and Gentlemen, when you’re ego is being built up regularly by someone of the opposite sex who is not your spouse, it’s easy to lightly fantasize the “what if” scenarios. Your guard erodes quickly and you begin to do things you wouldn’t normally do, especially if your wife was around. Men and women, run–do not walk–from these situations.

Pray that God will help you clearly recognize these morally dangerous situations, and that He will give you the strength to break away from relationships that will ultimately destroy your marriage if you pursue it.
