Proverbs 3:1-4 My son, don’t forget my teaching, keep my commands in your heart; 2 for they will add to you many days, years of life and peace. 3 Do not let grace and truth leave you — bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. 4 Then you will win favor and esteem in the sight of God and of people. The first Words are once again, "don't forget my teaching..." We have already read similar phrases to this several times. LISTEN, DON'T FORGET... Now we ad

Proverbs 2:16-22 They will save you from a woman who is a stranger, from a loose woman with smooth talk, 17 who abandons the ruler she had in her youth and forgets the covenant of her God. 18 Her house is sinking toward death, her paths lead to the dead. 19 None who go to her return; they never regain the path to life. 20 Thus you will walk on the way of good people and keep to the paths of the righteous. 21 For the upright will live in the land, the pure-hearted will remain

Proverbs 2:12-15 They will save you from the way of evil and from those who speak deceitfully, 13 who leave the paths of honesty to walk the ways of darkness, 14 who delight in doing evil and take joy in being stubbornly deceitful, 15 from those whose tracks are twisted and whose paths are perverse. Because I choose to break down the different sections and look at a few verses each day, sometimes we need to refer back to some previous in order to understand something. When I

Proverbs 2:6-11 For Adonai gives wisdom; from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding. 7 He stores up common sense for the upright, is a shield to those whose conduct is blameless, 8 in order to guard the courses of justice and preserve the way of those faithful to him. 9 Then you will understand righteousness, justice, fairness and every good path. 10 For wisdom will enter your heart, knowledge will be enjoyable for you, 11 discretion will watch over you, and discernment

Proverbs 2:1-5 My son, if you will receive my words and store my commands inside you, 2 paying attention to wisdom inclining your mind toward understanding — 3 yes, if you will call for insight and raise your voice for discernment, 4 if you seek it as you would silver and search for it as for hidden treasure — 5 then you will understand the fear of Adonai and find knowledge of God. How does one find knowledge of God and understand the fear of Adonai? RECEIVE my words! STORE m

Proverbs 1:20-33 Wisdom calls aloud in the open air and raises her voice in the public places; 21 she calls out at streetcorners and speaks out at entrances to city gates: 22 “How long, you whose lives have no purpose, will you love thoughtless living? How long will scorners find pleasure in mocking? How long will fools hate knowledge? 23 Repent when I reprove — I will pour out my spirit to you, I will make my words known to you. 24 Because you refused when I called, and no o

Proverbs 1:10-19 10 My son, if sinners entice you, don’t go along with them. 11 Suppose they say, “Come with us: we’ll ambush somebody and kill him, we’ll waylay some harmless soul, just for fun; 12 we’ll swallow him alive, like Sh’ol, whole, like those who descend to the pit; 13 we’ll find everything he has of value, we’ll fill our homes with loot! 14 Throw in your lot with us; we’ll share a common purse” — 15 my son, don’t go along with them, don’t set foot on their path; 1

Proverbs 1:7-9 7 The fear of Adonai is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. 8 My son, heed the discipline of your father, and do not abandon the teaching of your mother; 9 they will be a garland to grace your head, a medal of honor for your neck. God created us to LOVE Him, and part of that love means to fear Him. We have all heard that it doesn't mean to be afraid of Him, it is being in awe of Him. It is stopping a recognizing that HE created

God has been speaking to me about "starting over" and gaining wisdom. HIS Truth in wisdom. My heart led me to Proverbs. The book of Proverbs is: The proverbs of Shlomo the son of David, king of Isra’el, 2 are for learning about wisdom and discipline; for understanding words expressing deep insight; 3 for gaining an intelligently disciplined life, doing what is right, just and fair; 4 for endowing with caution those who don’t think and the young person with knowledge and discr
