Be Dangerous But Disciplined

“You don’t make men safe by making them weak. If fact they are much more dangerous when they’re weak because they will stab you in the back when they get a chance, or take advantage of you when they get the chance. You make men safe by making them strong and by making sure they are disciplined.”

Don’t Ruin Your Life

“People ruin their lives by their own foolishness and then are angry at the Lord.” (Proverbs 19:3) Men, be careful not to ruin the life God has given you. A foolish man cannot lead himself or a family. We must understand that success is an anomaly. We all want health in our minds, bodies, marriages, families, ministry…you name it. Yet, we see many fail and fall into ruin. Here are 3 things that will ruin your life.

I. WINE

Alcohol, substances, and anything that can impair your mind or emotions leads to ruin. Guard your marriage. Protect your mind. Everything is permissible as Paul stated, but not everything is beneficial.

II. LACK OF BOUNDARIES

It is easier to drive on a road with painted lines and guardrails. Boundaries bring safety. Consider the boundaries in all areas of life, with the opposite sex, in your schedule, in your sleep habits, with entertainment (i.e., videogames & tv), with devices (your phone and laptop); you need solid boundaries.

III. PRIDE

Pride is a closed and hard heart. Pride makes you unreachable. Pride can hear the truth and reject it in conceit. The antidote to pride is the Holy Spirit and His guidance. Be humble or be humbled.
