Safe from Evil
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

A shield and guard...
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

How to Find Knowledge
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

The Street Corner
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

Walk Away...
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
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

Chanukah Humility
Once again I give credit to Restored Ministries for the writing of this blog in 2019. Chanukah Humility… We continue to count the nights of Chanukah and we have reached day seven. We have seen and observed the progression of the fruits moving toward issues in the heart. Goodness and faithfulness are traits from within. The next one is as well, although we often look for it in actions. On night seven the candle we light is HUMILITY. Yes, I put this in capital letters. Yes, we

Chanukah Kindness
Once again I give credit to Restored Ministries for the initial write of this devotional. The fourth night of Chanukah is marked for us by the word, “kindness.” The “LOVE” candle lights Joy, Peace, Patience and now Kindness... The moment I hear this word I think back to a song from years ago that Leslie Phillips sang and the words say, “It’s your kindness that leads us to repentance oh Lord...” It truly is amazing to think that we have a GOD who loves us so much that He will

Chanukah Patience
Once again I give credit to Restored Ministries as I wrote this for them in 2019. I pray it blesses you as we walk through these days of miracles. Chanukah Patience… On the third night of Chanukah the “Love” candle lights Joy, than Peace and now PATIENCE… The word patience usually stirs up lots of emotions in people. Most parents are constantly telling their young children, “just be patient.” As adults we struggle when things don’t happen right away and we often get impatient

Peace
Matthew 28:8-15 8 So they left the tomb quickly, frightened yet filled with joy; and they ran to give the news to his talmidim (disciples/students). 9 Suddenly Yeshua met them and said, “Shalom!” They came up and took hold of his feet as they fell down in front of him. 10 Then Yeshua said to them, “Don’t be afraid! Go and tell my brothers to go to the Galil, and they will see me there.” 11 As they were going, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the head coha
