In our quest for living a righteous life, we can sometimes hyper-focus on our works and internal examinations.
Daily Word: He Always Sees, Proverbs 5:21
He Always Sees — the Good and the Bad. One of my most humiliating events occurred when I was in third grade. I got into trouble. Not just troubled, but a quadruple-portion trouble.
Daily Word: Decisions. Decisions. James [Jacob] 1:5
They are always before us, aren’t they? Every single day. Sometimes moment by moment. Decisions that can be life altering and we don’t even realize it at the time.
Daily Word: Psalm 24:1
If the Creator of the Universe, publishes an owner’s manual, it stands to reason we would greatly benefit from reading it.
Daily Word: Amos 5:24
Have you ever read the book of Amos? It’s contents are pretty tough. God’s judgments on Israel’s neighbors and then Israel herself. For what?
Daily Word: Proverbs 1:7
Ah, my dear friends. We can’t avoid it. Here is one of the primary reasons why
we don’t simply study Proverbs and move on to our next study. It is because wisdom begins with the fear of the LORD. We can study the the definitions of what scholars tell us the fear of the LORD means, but because the fear of the ADONAI is intrinsically woven into our pursuit of wisdom, discernment, and knowledge, it is to be lived.
Daily Word: Proverbs 23:24
How many have a wise child? Not everyone, unfortunately. Hubby and I didn’t get the wisdom thing ourselves — even as believers — until our daughter was on her own. That meant the poor thing went through the same hard lessons we did. Even harder in some respects.
Daily Word: Proverbs 12:25
We’ve all felt it, that first sip of just-the-right-coolness water on a parched throat. That “ahhhh!” and gratitude for the miracle of water. Is it any wonder that water plays such an important role throughout Scriptures?
Daily Word: Proverbs 18:10
We have a choice to run to the LORD at the first sight of danger, fear, anger, need, want, loneliness, longing, temptation, desire, destruction — well, you get the idea.
