Dead Flies

Dead Flies

Eccl. 10:1

DEAD FLIES cause the ointment of the dealer in spices and perfumes to putrefy and send forth a vile odor; [a small, but irritating and disgusting little thing that do a world of mischief]

so does a little folly [in him who is valued for wisdom] outweigh wisdom and honor. [cautioned to protect our reputation and be the sweet ointment and not the disgusting flies]

Pray the Word:

Lord, just as that sweet fragrance of ointments attract the aggravating, irritating and disgusting flies; so it is with an honorable man with a good reputation that can attract those who do not wish him well and would like to see him fail and destroy his reputation. We pray, by the name of Jesus Christ, that all flies – dead or alive – are removed from around us and are ‘cast into the sea’! We will win!!!!
