Heed and trust!

 “He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he.”

Proverbs 16:20 

Heed the Word and trust the Lord. You will be happy knowing God is leading you!

Be careful who your friends are!

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

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭13‬:‭20‬ ‭

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

Tree of life.

 “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?

Correction!

 “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!

Do you know Him???

 “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!

Tom

What would you ask for?

 “At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask! What shall I give you?””

I Kings 3:5 

What would you ask for?

Soloman asked for understanding to discern what is good and what is evil. That pleased God and He blessed Soloman with wisdom and much more!

May we be careful that what we ask of God is pleasing in His eyes!

Tom

Hidden in my heart.

 “Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You.”

Psalms 119:11 

We must as followers of Jesus learn His Word and then obey it so we do not sin against God. It can only be done by having the power of the Holy Spirit lead us! How much of God’s Word do you know?
