Who Walk In Wisdom

Proverbs 28:23-26 – Whoever rebukes a person will in the end gain favor rather than one who has a flattering tongue. Whoever robs their father or mother and says, “It’s not wrong,” is partner to one who destroys. The greedy stir up conflict, but those who trust in the Lord will prosper. Those who trust in themselves are fools, but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe.

Proverbs 19:26 – Whoever robs their father and drives out their mother is a child who brings shame and disgrace.

Proverbs 11:25 – A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.

Proverbs 3:5-6 – Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Application:

  • ·         Children were expected to take care of their parents when they were sick or elderly. Robbing them and attacking or calling down curses on them were serious crimes.
  • ·         “Whoever sows generously will also reap generously”.
  • ·         “Who walk in wisdom” equals “whoever trusts in the Lord”.
  • ·         David challenged Solomon to serve God “with wholehearted devotion”.
  • ·         Be ever mindful of God and serve Him with a willing, faithful and obedient heart. He will remove the obstacles from your pathway and bring you to your appointed goal.
