Released from the Old Bond
“For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage.” –Romans 7:2 ESV This point is not primarily about marriage, but about our relationship to the law. Paul is showing that just as death ends a marriage bond, so also the death of Christ ends the believer’s bondage to the law as a means of righteousness. It is a…

The Fear That Prolongs Life
“The fear of the Lord prolongs life, but the years of the wicked will be short.” — Proverbs 10:27 (ESV) “The fear of the Lord prolongs life…” The “fear of the Lord” is not a terror that drives us away, but a reverent awe and deep respect that draws us into submission and obedience. It is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10), and in this passage, Solomon tells us it brings about the prolonging…

The Gift That Conquers Death
“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” — Romans 6:23 (ESV) Paul sets forth two opposing realities. First, the “wages of sin is death.” The word wages implies something earned, something justly given as payment for one’s actions. Sin, by nature, is rebellion against the holy God, and thus it deserves divine judgment. Sin leads…

Standing Firm in the Storm
“When the tempest passes, the wicked is no more, but the righteous is established forever.” –Proverbs 10:25 ESV The “tempest” here refers to the overwhelming judgments of God — whether temporal (such as disasters, wars, personal calamities) or eternal (like the final judgment). The “wicked” are likened to a house built on sand: once the winds and floods come, it is swept away (Matthew 7:27).…

The Fruit of Freedom in Christ
“But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life.” –Romans 6:22 ESV Paul speaks here to show the true freedom of the believer. While the unconverted person might think themselves free, they are in fact enslaved to sin. Freedom from sin is not licentiousness, but the beginning of true service to God.…

The Fruit of Fear and the Fulfillment of Faith
“What the wicked dreads will come upon him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.” –Proverbs 10:24 ESV This verse reveals a deep spiritual truth about the condition of the heart and its consequences in the providence of God. The wicked often live in dread, anxious about death, judgment, punishment, or loss of their wealth and comfort. These fears, though they try to suppress or…

The Bitter Wages of Sin and the Sweetness of Christ
“For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. But what fruit were you getting at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.” –Romans 6:20-21 Paul here presses upon us the memory of our former state so that we might be ashamed of it and flee from it. When we were under the dominion of sin, we seemed free—free from…

Wisdom in Holding Our Tongue
“When words are many, transgression is not lacking, but whoever restrains his lips is prudent.” –Proverbs 10:19 ESV When a person speaks much—when there is an abundance of words—there is often an accompanying abundance of sin. It may be the sin of idle speech, rash promises, harsh judgments, or even murmuring against God. The tongue, if unguarded, becomes an instrument of folly and damage. When…

From Bondage to Obedience
“But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed, and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness.” –Romans 6:17-18 ESV When the Apostle Paul speaks these words, he does so with a deep sense of gratitude to God. He recalls what we once were—slaves of sin—and rejoices in…

The Hidden Tongue and the Open Slanderer
“The one who conceals hatred has lying lips, and whoever utters slander is a fool.” –Proverbs 10:18 ESV Concealing hatred is not mere restraint; it is hiding malice under a cloak of false love. A person may pretend friendship outwardly while secretly harboring hatred within. Such lips, though they seem smooth, are lying lips, because they communicate a false image of the heart. Uttering slander…

Whom You Obey Reveals Whose You Are
“Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?” – Romans 6:16 ESV Paul speaks plainly here—our actions reveal our true allegiance. Paul’s intention is to remind us that no one is without a master. If we yield our lives to sin, we declare that…

Walking in the Path of Life
“Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who rejects reproof leads others astray.” – Proverbs 10:17, ESV “Whoever heeds instruction”—that is, who listens carefully to sound teaching and submits to wise counsel—is walking in the way that leads to life. He is like a traveler following a well-marked road, guided by wisdom, safe from many snares. The one who rejects reproof not…

Living Under Grace, Not Under Law
“For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace. What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!” –Romans 6:14–15 (ESV) The Apostle Paul here is not granting license to sin but showing the glorious freedom believers have from the tyranny of sin. To be “under the law” is to be bound by its demands and condemned by its curse.…

The Fruit of Righteous Labor
“The wage of the righteous leads to life, the gain of the wicked to sin.” — Proverbs 10:16 (ESV) The “wage” or “labor” of the righteous is not merely earthly earnings—it represents the fruit of their honest work, their actions done in faith and integrity. This labor, springing from a heart aligned with God’s wisdom, leads to life—both a life of usefulness here on earth and eternal life…

Do Not Present Your Members to Sin
“Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness.” — Romans 6:13, ESV As we meditate on this verse, we are reminded of the great transformation that God has worked in us through Christ. The Apostle Paul calls us not merely to avoid sin…

The Wise Lay Up Knowledge
“The wise lay up knowledge, but the mouth of a fool brings ruin near.” -Proverbs 10:14 (ESV) Wise men are not forward to show their knowledge, but hide it till a proper time, and by prudent silence keep it to themselves. They lay it up as a treasure, as one would store precious jewels, ready to be brought forth in due season. A fool by his talkativeness and boasting brings himself and others…

Do Not Let Sin Reign
“Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions.” –Romans 6:12 (ESV) Paul here exhorts believers to not let sin exercise dominion over them. Even though sin remains in us as long as we live in the flesh, it must not be allowed to rule. Paul does not speak as though sin could be completely destroyed in this life, but he charges us to resist it so that it does not…
