2016 Day 277 – Proverbs 10

Tags

A wise person will choose what and when to speak carefully. Proverbs 10:19 says, When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise. Choosing to hold an opinion is not a bad thing. Unless those around us are ready to hear our two cents, it is most likely better to hold our thoughts to ourselves.

2016 Day 275 – Proverbs9

No one has perfect wisdom, but a wise man accepts instruction without being intimidated. Proverbs 9:9 says, Instruct a wise man and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man and he will add to his learning. Those who are unable or unwilling to accept instruction only hurt and limited themselves.

2016 Day 274 – Proverbs 8

Love for God and love for sin cannot coexist. Proverbs 8:13 says, To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech. To harbor sin in your life is to tolerate evil. By committing ourselves fully to God we work to break from sin. We will never be perfect, but we should always strive towards righteousness.

2016 Day 273 – Proverbs 7

There is no better weapon against the evils of this world than God’s word in our hearts reminding us of righteousness. Proverbs 7:1 says, My son, keep my words and store up my commands within you. God’s word stored in us is both powerful and sweet to our soul.

2016 Day 272 – Proverbs 6

God’s wisdom is greater than anything we can receive elsewhere. We must pay attention and stay away from the things that hurt or displease God. Proverbs 6:16-19 clearly states: 16 There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: 17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, 18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, 19 a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community. Wisdom is taking knowledge and information learned and through wisdom applying it in our lives. The Bible is clear, it is up to us to apply through wisdom that can only come from God.

2016 Day 271 – Proverbs 5

Nothing we do is ever hidden from God. Proverbs 5:21 says, For man’s ways are in full view of the Lord, and he examines all his paths. Which is why we should be so thankful for God’s grace. Even though He knows our perfection, He still gives us forgiveness and loves us just the same.

2016 Day 270 – Proverbs 4

Tags

What we allow in our heart dictates, to a great extent, how we live our lives. In Proverbs 4:23 it says, Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. If we cannot control the desires of our heart, we are at risk of desiring things that can destroy us. By guarding ourselves we are protecting ourselves from potential destruction.

Through wisdom we gain understanding, but true wisdom can only come from God. Proverbs 3:13 says, Blessed is the man who finds wisdom; the man who gains understanding. When we know we need wisdom and find it through God, we are blessed.
