Proverb 2:14

“who rejoice in doing evil
and delight in the perverseness of evil,”

Sometimes, though, people simply delight in doing evil and they are the subject here. These individuals don’t merely test the spirits, but they regard deep rebellion against that which is good and the One who is good.

Those with a perverse attitude, bent for evil, walk deliberately against the will of God. They are obstinate, unwavering in their wrongdoing. They adamantly refute that which is godly and good, simply for the unreasonable sake of doing so. Because they can. And they will. They are god of themselves and no other will rule their lives.

Be on the loookout for these! They are intermingled in your journey. They will question you on the way and attempt to pervert your own thoughts. Pray incessantly, that their words will not corrupt your thought pattern. Stay true to the path before you. Find reason in your way and keep to it.
