“hear in heaven Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You, that all peoples of the earth may know Your name and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and that they may know that this temple which I have built is called by Your name.”
I Kings 8:43
Soloman, when dedicating the great temple of God included Gentiles (foreigners)
Thank you Lord for remembering those who are not Jews!!! We are grateful!
“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the hearts.”
Proverbs 21:2
Most of us tend to think we are right in what we say and do! But if it don’t align with what God says then we are wrong no matter what we think! God truly knows our hearts!

“He who walks with wise men will be wise, But the companion of fools will be destroyed.”

Wise people follow Jesus. Fools do not. Are your friends wise or fools. Be very careful who influence you!

“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who wins souls is wise.”
Proverbs 11:30
To be righteous we must be in Christ. For we are not righteous in ourselves alone. When we are in Christ we have the tree of life which is eternity with God!!! Thus to be wise is to win souls by sharing the gospel with others so they too can obtain the tree of life!
Are you a soul winner for Jesus?

“My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, Nor detest His correction; For whom the Lord loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights.”
Proverbs 3:11-12
We sin. Thankfully God forgives our sin when we are in Christ. There will be consequences because of our sin for our own correction. Our loving heavenly Father wants us to be obedient and chastening is needed! Be thankful God loves you enough to correct you even though it hurts!

“Be still, and know that I am God.
Psalms 46:10a
That’s it…just take time and be still. Know the One and only true God.
Do you know Him? Or just about Him?
An important question to chew on!
