Lesson 1: Incline Your Ear
In this first lesson on Proverbs Chapter 5, we explore the critical need for wisdom in a world filled with temptations. This lesson unpacks the dangers of immorality and the importance of discretion, urging young people to not only seek knowledge but to live it out daily. Parents are called to engage actively in guiding their children, fostering an environment where biblical principles are both taught and exemplified. This lesson challenges you to prepare for spiritual battles, build strong convictions, and be a positive influence in the lives of others, all while deepening your devotion to Christ.
Proverbs 5:1-5 – “My son, give attention to my wisdom,
Incline your ear to my understanding;
That you may observe discretion
And your lips may reserve knowledge.
For the lips of an adulteress drip honey
And smoother than oil is her speech;
But in the end she is bitter as wormwood,
Sharp as a two-edged sword.”
