Proverbs 4, the way to life, and the way to death!

Pro 4:1-2, HEAR, MY CHILDREN, THE INSTRUCTION OF A FATHER, AND GIVE ATTENTION TO KNOW UNDERSTANDING; FOR I GIVE YOU GOOD DOCTRINE: DO NOT FORSAKE MY LAW.

These are Solomons word, Yet I can easily hear it coming from the HOLY FATHER in HEAVEN! LISTEN TO ME, I GIVE YOU GOOD DOCTRINE, LISTEN AND LIVE!

Deu 6:6-9, “AND THESE WORDS WHICH I COMMAND YOU TODAY SHALL BE IN YOUR HEART. YOU SHALL TEACH THEM DILIGENTLY TO YOUR CHILDREN, AND SHALL TALK OF THEM WHEN YOU SIT IN YOUR HOUSE, WHEN YOU WALK BY THE WAY, WHEN YOU LIE DOWN, AND WHEN YOU RISE UP. YOU SHALL BIND THEM AS A SIGN ON YOUR HAND, and THEY SHALL BE AS FRONTLETS BETWEEN YOUR EYES. YOU SHALL WRITE THEM ON THE DOORPOSTS OF YOUR HOUSE AND ON YOUR GATES.

The FATHER only wants the best for HIS children as we do for ours! HIS WORD gives life and directs our path!

Psa 119:105, YOUR WORD IS A LAMP TO MY FEET AND A LIGHT TO MY PATH. 

Pro 4:14-16, DO NOT ENTER the path of the wicked, And DO NOT WALK in the way of evil. Avoid it, DO NOT TRAVEL on it; Turn away from it and pass on. FOR THEY DO NOT SLEEP UNLESS THEY HAVE DONE EVIL; And THEIR SLEEP IS TAKEN AWAY UNLESS THEY MAKE SOMEONE FALL.

There are people who are committed to their sin; they will sacrifice sleep, money, and even their own dignity to do wrong!

Psa 36:4, He devises wickedness on his bed; He sets himself in a way that is not good; He does not abhor evil. 

Pro 4:19, THE WAY OF THE WICKED IS LIKE DARKNESS; THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT MAKES THEM STUMBLE. 

They stumble for they are not guided by the light of this world, JESUS!

Joh 12:35, Then JESUS said to them, “A little while longer the light is with you. WALK WHILE YOU HAVE THE LIGHT, lest darkness overtake you; HE WHO WALKS IN DARKNESS DOES NOT KNOW WHERE HE IS GOING. 

These are the instructions of GOD which leads to life, but there is another path which leads to death and many follow it! Choose Wisely!

Pro 14:12, THERE IS A WAY THAT SEEMS RIGHT TO A MAN, BUT ITS END IS THE WAY OF DEATH.

Proverbs 3:13-35, Finding the Wisdom of GOD, JESUS!

Pro 3:13-15, HAPPY IS THE MAN WHO FINDS WISDOM, AND THE MAN WHO GAINS UNDERSTANDING; FOR HER PROCEEDS ARE BETTER THAN THE PROFITS OF SILVER, AND HER GAIN THAN FINE GOLD. SHE IS MORE PRECIOUS THAN RUBIES, AND ALL THE THINGS YOU MAY DESIRE CANNOT COMPARE WITH HER.

Wisdom and understanding, profits much in this world, YET true wisdom is found only in CHRIST JESUS

1Co 1:24, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD.

The wisdom of this world will one day pass away but those that find GOD’s wisdom, that is HIS SON JESUS, will live forever!

Pro 8:35, FOR WHOEVER FINDS ME FINDS LIFE, AND OBTAINS FAVOR FROM THE LORD; 

Pro 3:19-20, THE LORD BY WISDOM FOUNDED THE EARTH; BY UNDERSTANDING HE ESTABLISHED THE HEAVENS; BY HIS KNOWLEDGE …

By Wisdom, JESUS, HE created the heavens and the earth; all things came to being because of HIS SON!

Col 1:16, FOR BY HIM ALL THINGS WERE CREATED THAT ARE IN HEAVEN AND THAT ARE ON EARTH, VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE, WHETHER THRONES OR DOMINIONS OR PRINCIPALITIES OR POWERS. ALL THINGS WERE CREATED THROUGH HIM AND FOR HIM.

Pro 3:28-31, DO NOT say to your neighbor, “Go, and come back, And tomorrow I will give it,” When you have it with you. DO NOT devise evil against your neighbor, … DO NOT strive with a man without cause, … DO NOT envy the oppressor, And choose none of his ways;

Wisdom will keep you from foolish things that people do! So as much as depends on you pursue peace with everyone

Rom 12:18, If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. 

Heb 12:14, Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord: 

Pro 3:35, THE WISE SHALL INHERIT GLORY, But shame shall be the legacy of fools. 

It’s a choice, pursue wisdom or foolishness! One leads to life and the other death!

Proverbs 1:8-33, GOD is always speaking!

Pro 1:10-11, My son, if sinners entice you, Do not consent. If they say, “Come with us, Let us lie in wait to shed blood; Let us lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;

As Parents we are always trying to teach our children to be careful with who you hang around with! There is a known quote that says, “SHOW ME YOUR FRIENDS AND I’LL SHOW YOU YOUR FUTURE”!

Pro 13:20, He who walks with wise men will be wise, But the companion of fools will be destroyed. 

Pro 1:20-21, WISDOM CALLS ALOUD OUTSIDE; SHE RAISES HER VOICE IN THE OPEN SQUARES. SHE CRIES OUT IN THE CHIEF CONCOURSES, At the openings of the gates in the city SHE SPEAKS HER WORDS:

Solomon personifies wisdom as a woman offering guidance to the hearer! Wisdom is always speaking, yet so many people can’t hear her call!

Psa 19:1-3, … THE HEAVENS DECLARE THE GLORY OF GOD; AND THE FIRMAMENT SHOWS HIS HANDIWORK. DAY UNTO DAY UTTERS SPEECH, AND NIGHT UNTO NIGHT REVEALS KNOWLEDGE. THERE IS NO SPEECH NOR LANGUAGE WHERE THEIR VOICE IS NOT HEARD.

Look up and around, and you will see HIS creation all around you; for where there is a design there’s always a designer behind it!

Rom 1:20, For since the creation of the world HIS INVISIBLE ATTRIBUTES ARE CLEARLY SEEN, BEING UNDERSTOOD BY THE THINGS THAT ARE MADE, EVEN HIS ETERNAL POWER AND GODHEAD, SO THAT THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE, 

Pro 1:22, “HOW LONG, YOU SIMPLE ONES, WILL YOU LOVE SIMPLICITY? For scorners delight in their scorning, AND FOOLS HATE KNOWLEDGE.

Simple one look at creation and say “that nice, it looks pretty”, yet can’t see the Creator who designed it! A fool will attribute all that he see to just chance and luck!  

Psa 14:1, … THE FOOL HAS SAID IN HIS HEART,”THERE IS NO GOD.” They are corrupt, They have done abominable works, There is none who does good.

Pro 1:33, BUT WHOEVER LISTENS TO ME WILL DWELL SAFELY, AND WILL BE SECURE, WITHOUT FEAR OF EVIL.” 

Do you hear her (wisdom’s) call? HE, GOD, is always speaking, through HIS word or through HIS works!

Psalm 145, Great is our GOD!

Psa 145:1-2, … I will extol YOU, MY GOD, O KING; And I will bless YOUR name forever and ever. Every day I will bless YOU, And I will praise YOUR name forever and ever.

This is the last Psalm attributed to king David, a Psalm of praise and adoration of HIM who is worthy to be praised! David, being an earthly king, knew that GOD, his GOD, is the true KING of kings! He will bless and praise daily without end!

Rev 19:16, And HE has on HIS robe and on HIS thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

Psa 145:3, GREAT IS THE LORD, AND GREATLY TO BE PRAISED; AND HIS GREATNESS IS UNSEARCHABLE. 

When we consider HIS creation all around us, the stars and galaxies, the mighty sea, our own bodies etc; we are left in awe of HIS greatness! YET, this is only a glimpse of HIS power for we only see the mere edges of it!

Job 26:12-14, HE stirs up the sea with HIS power, And by HIS understanding HE breaks up the storm. By HIS Spirit HE adorned the heavens; HIS hand pierced the fleeing serpent. INDEED THESE ARE THE MERE EDGES OF HIS WAYS, AND HOW SMALL A WHISPER WE HEAR OF HIM! BUT THE THUNDER OF HIS POWER WHO CAN UNDERSTAND?”

Psa 145:8-9, The LORD IS GRACIOUS AND FULL OF COMPASSION, SLOW TO ANGER AND GREAT IN MERCY. The LORD IS GOOD TO ALL, AND HIS TENDER MERCIES ARE OVER ALL HIS WORKS.

Even though, for us, sometimes it’s hard to see, and impossible to understand the trials that happen in our lives? why did I lose my job, why this why that, why a precious life was taken? YET, KNOW THE LORD IS GOOD TO ALL AND WHAT HE DOES, EVEN THOUGH WE DON’T UNDERSTAND, WAS FOR THE BEST!

Rom 8:28, AND WE KNOW THAT ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THOSE WHO LOVE GOD, TO THOSE WHO ARE THE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE.

Psa 147:5, Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; HIS UNDERSTANDING IS INFINITE. 

Psa 145:18, THE LORD IS NEAR TO ALL WHO CALL UPON HIM, TO ALL WHO CALL UPON HIM IN TRUTH. 

HE is like the air that surrounds us, always present for HE has said, “I SHALL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU”! HE hears are prayers, and knows the sadness in our hearts!

Psa 145:21, MY MOUTH SHALL SPEAK THE PRAISE OF THE LORD, AND ALL FLESH SHALL BLESS HIS HOLY NAME FOREVER AND EVER. 

Happen what may, David made his choice to follow the LORD, Have you?

Psalm 104, HE provides all!

Psa 104:10-11, HE SENDS THE SPRINGS INTO THE VALLEYS; They flow among the hills. They give drink to every beast of the field; The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

The LORD provides for all HIS creation

Psa 104:13-15, … THE EARTH IS SATISFIED WITH THE FRUIT OF YOUR WORKS. He causes the grass to grow FOR THE CATTLE, And vegetation for the service of man, THAT HE MAY BRING FORTH FOOD FROM THE EARTH, And wine that makes glad the heart of man, Oil to make his face shine, AND BREAD WHICH STRENGTHENS MAN’S HEART. 

The earth, HIS creation, gives us all we need! Bread, water, power, materials to build; the earth, by HIS design, gives us what we need!

Psa 145:15, The eyes of all look expectantly to You, And You give them their food in due season.

Psa 104:19, HE appointed the MOON for seasons; The SUN knows its going down. 

Psa 8:3-4, When I consider Your heavens, THE WORK OF YOUR FINGERS, THE MOON AND THE STARS, WHICH YOU HAVE ORDAINED, WHAT IS MAN THAT YOU ARE MINDFUL OF HIM, And the son of man that You visit him?

It’s not what is man, but who HE is! HE IS OUR LOVING FATHER WHO PROVIDES FOR HIS CHILDREN! HE CREATED EVERYTHING AROUND TO SUPPORT LIFE

Psa 104:23, MAN GOES OUT TO HIS WORK AND TO HIS LABOR UNTIL THE EVENING. 

HE gives man wisdom and materials to create vehicles, homes, hospitals, tools etc.

Psa 104:24, O LORD, HOW MANIFOLD ARE YOUR WORKS! IN WISDOM YOU HAVE MADE THEM ALL. THE EARTH IS FULL OF YOUR POSSESSIONS—

Everything we have or own comes from the FATHER! HE SUPPLIES EVERYTHING!

Php 4:19, AND MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEED ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES IN GLORY BY CHRIST JESUS. 

HE created all these things for HIS creation so that we may look up and realize WE ARE NOT ALONE! NOTHING IS BY ACCIDENT AND EVERYTHING HAS A PURPOSE! OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE THAT HIS DESIRE IS FOR YOU!

1Ti 2:4-5, WHO DESIRES ALL MEN TO BE SAVED AND TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH. FOR THERE IS ONE GOD AND ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS,
