IN the NEWS - Tik Tok Narco Queen and the Lesson of Proverbs 4

Enter not into the path of the wicked, 

and go not in the way of evil men. 

Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away. 

For they eat the bread of wickedness, 

and drink the wine of violence. 

The way of the wicked is as darkness: 

they know not at what they stumble.
Proverbs 4:14,15,17,19

"News broke in late October 2023 that Sabrina Durán Montero, a "narco influencer" who had hundreds of thousands of followers on TikTok, had died. Sabrina, who was just 24 years old, died under pretty horrific circumstances, and reporting suggests that she earned her "narco" reputation. She attracted a lot of attention on TikTok because she was the Narco Queen.

Sabrina was apparently shot in broad daylight in her car in Chile, and now, many want to better understand what happened to her, and why

she was killed. 

Durán, a mother-of-one, was on her way to a nail salon when she was stopped by three men in the Santiago town of Padre Hurtado. Chilling video recorded by a bystander showed Sabrina Durán, 24, lying face down in the middle of a street in Santiago on Tuesday morning after being shot by a masked assailant. 

In the footage Durán is already seen laying on the ground trying to get up when a gunman steps forward and fires multiple shots before using her vehicle to escape. The killers stole her vehicle following the hit, and it was found burnt about a half-hour away from the scene of the crime. Sabrina was rushed to a local hospital following the shooting with eight gunshot wounds, but doctors were unable to save her.

Sabrina and two of her brothers were apparently arrested at the beginning of 2023 because they were suspected of supplying, distributing and trafficking cannabis, cocaine, MDMA, and magic mushrooms.

While she was incarcerated, Sabrina apparently began a relationship with Antonella Marchant, the leader of the Los Marchant gang who was arrested in 2021 and is currently spending 15 years in prison.
She attempted to escape prison by jumping from the third floor with other inmates before they were all captured.

Sabrina was apparently on parole at the time of her death. Sabrina

posted on TikTok under the handle @katrinagusman, and has more than 600,000 followers....Sabrina was a famed local drug trafficker who went by the alias “La Ina." Police believe that her killing may have been a move to settle scores by a rival drug gang. Local police chief Leonel Muñoz said that Sabrina “had a criminal record, specifically for receiving stolen vehicles and drug trafficking, and had been released from serving a sentence approximately a month ago."

Proverbs on Prayer

The prayer of the upright is his delight.  Proverbs 15:8

"This is as good as a promise, for it declares a present fact, which will be the same throughout all ages. God takes great pleasure in the prayers of upright men; He even calls them His delight.

Our first concern is to be upright. Neither bending this way nor that,

continue upright; ... If we begin to shuffle and shift, we shall be left to shift for ourselves. ....we shall find our prayers shut out of heaven.

---If our prayer is God's delight, let us not stint Him in that which gives Him pleasure. 

---He does not consider the grammar of it, nor the metaphysics of it, nor the rhetoric of it; in all these men might despise it. He, as a Father, takes pleasure in the lispings of His own babes, the stammerings of His newborn sons and daughters. Should we not delight in prayer since the Lord delights in it?." Charles Spurgeon

Proverbs on Popery

And, behold, 

there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, 

and subtil of heart.

For true and righteous are His judgments: 

for He hath judged the great whore, 

which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, 

and hath avenged the blood of His servants at her hand. 

Proverbs 7:10/Revelation 19:2

 

A Strange Woman / Compared to Wormwood---

For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.

Proverbs 5:3,4

 

Where does she Lead?

Her feet go down to death;

Proverbs 5:5 

Stay away---

Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: [in Prophecy a "house" is symbolic of a church]

Proverbs 5:8

THE WARNING:

Lest thou give thine honor unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!

Proverbs 5:9,11-13

Stay Close to your First Love----

Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well. Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets. Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee. Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.

Proverbs 5:15-19

 

Spiritual Concluding Question:

And why wilt thou, my son, 

be ravished with a strange woman, 

and embrace the bosom of a stranger?

Proverbs 5:20 

REMEMBER:

Her house [church] is a highway to the grave, leading down to the chambers of death.
