PROVERBS 23:6
Pro 23:6 Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats:
It doesn’t take long these days that evil eye is everywhere it is on our money it is all over TV, just about all the now day pop music, they call it the all seeing eye, really it is nothing more than satan. It is even big trend right now to get it tattooed. In scripture we see the LORD has eyes meaning more than one. I think that one reason for not eating dainty meats is it was well know in the Old Testament they would sacrifice the animals to false gods then eat the meat. We can also see that evil eye refers to
Mar 7:22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
Looking at the scripture in Daniel they would not eat the kings meat that’s what makes me think that it might have been sacrificed to demons.
Dan 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
Dan 1:9 Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs.
Dan 1:10 And the prince of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed your meat and your drink: for why should he see your faces worse liking than the children which are of your sort? then shall ye make me endanger my head to the king.
Daniel says that he would not defile himself so that could be why or it is pork. Then we know that wine give us red eyes.
Pro 23:29 Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes?
Pro 23:30 They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine.
We also see how we need to watch who we hang out with make sure they don’t practice wickedness
Psa 141:4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
The good thing about today is we can ask JESUS to bless our food I believe in Him and believe He does bless it for us.
They have done study’s at restaurants that have had food poison and found that people that bless their food did not get food poisoning and everyone else did. So be sure to ask GOD to bless your food before you eat and BELIEVE.
