Proverbs 23:19-21

19 Listen, my son, and be wise, and set your heart on the right path:
20 Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat,
21 for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags.

A wise man that wants to be noble and virtuous in life will not choose friends that are gluttons or drunkards. He knows that choosing wise friends is essential to his own success. He will search out sober and temperate men/women that live disciplined lives at all times.

Godly men/women avoid such perverse excess, no matter what ridicule they endure, for they know God is coming in judgment for such sins. They also reject any crowds or persons guilty of these sins to avoid their evil influence.

Application

Pray for those who struggle with those habits and reach out to them.
