Choose None of His Ways

Do not envy the oppressor, And choose none of his ways (Proverbs 3: 31 NKJV)

An oppressor or bully victimizes and manipulates others into doing their will. We were created to only follow God's Will.

An oppressor may be someone who is charismatic and popular. They may have a lot of friends. Oppressors use their influence to keep people under control and do their bidding.

For instance, Adolf Hitler was an oppressor who had many followers. He used his power to hurt others and promote his own agenda. Power is attractive. Many wanted to be in Hitler's inner circle and were willing to follow his ways to gain attention.

God warns us to not envy the oppressor or bully. Do not choose any of their ways. We were created to ONLY do God's bidding.

Is it better to sit alone with God or in a crowd without God?
