The call to “acquire wisdom” (Proverbs 4:5) is a call to”walk away from
evil” (Proverbs 4:27). The importance of walking away from evil is
grounded in the fact that “Each person’s ways are clearly seen by the
Lord” (Proverbs 5:21). We are not to give the appearance of living a
godly life while remaining far from God in our hearts. There is to be a
true commitment to living to please God in all things – in the places
which are seen only by Him as well as the places that are seen by other
people. Living to please God will involve clearly identifying the ways that
do not please Him, so that we can avoid such ways and seek the better
way of doing the Lord’s will.
