When we think about God’s desires for our lives, many times we think about what he wants us to do. In Proverbs 6 it gives us a list of things God doesn’t want us to do. As we look at these seven things God hates we quickly realize we have probably done them all, at least in our hearts.

Thankfully, Ephesians show us that the love of God doesn’t leave us in judgment or condemnation of the things He hates. In Christ we are given a way to combat these things, by walking in faith and trusting in Jesus by the power of the Spirit, putting on the full armor of God.
