We need to know as a child of God there are things just as a parent of your own children there are things to which he hates.
In fact there are six things the bible says the Lord doth hate, and seven are an abomination unto him.
We need to be aware of these things and work toward not being the type of person that doesn't do these things, especially on purpose.
While reading this passage and looking at these words I began to realize many of these things God hates, we see in our every day lives.
It's really sad to say but there are many people out there who spend much of their time bragging about all they have, or what they have done. If you do good for anyone or if you have anything that God has blessed you with you should never brag about it ever.
As the Bible tells us in Proverbs 16:18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. This basically means people who are overconfident or too arrogant are likely to fail.
We need to be humble, honest to ourselves and others, because others know when you are speaking lies and sowing discord among your brethren. They may not tell you or let you know but don't think you're fooling them for a moment.
You wouldn't want your own children to do these things to others, just as God's children doesn't want this either.
Try being a humble person, not letting a wicked heart speaketh lies or cause mischief.
Because just as the bees can sting with vengeful force, so can God punish his children just as you would your own if you knew they were doing wrong.
Proverbs 6:16-19
16These six things doth the LORD hate:
yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17A proud look, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
18An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations,
feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19A false witness that speaketh lies,
and he that soweth discord among brethren.
