"(The Lord hates) a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil," (Proverbs 6:18)
Have you ever been the victim of a "wicked scheme"? A wicked scheme is some type of wrong, hurtful, plan of action that is designed to give an unfair advantage to an evil person. It might be about a high school class election, a plan to obtain more business, the selection of people to a social club, or how to win a national political election. In whatever case a wicked scheme will have as its result a bad consequence. Someone will be hurt, someone will obtain an advantage by deception, and truth will have been violated. No wonder the LORD hates such actions. The heart that devises such schemes is evil. It is not only those who devise such schemes who gain the disfavor of the LORD, but also those who run to participate in such actions. Sometimes these people deceive themselves by saying, "I did nothing wrong, it wasn't my idea". Those who rush to join such evil are as guilty as the originators of the plan. This is a proverb of warning. Have nothing to do with such people and plots. A righteous course is a course of no regret.
