Bible Reading for July 25 (ONPP)
Proverbs 1 – 4, Proverbs 30

You may say “We’re just getting ready to finish Proverbs. Why do we want to Start it ageain?” Proverbs reminds us that wisdom is soething to be sought. The scripture tells us that we would be destroyed (drawn away from God’s path) bacuse of our lack of knowledge. Knowledge without wisdom is like a fire without a place to keep it in. It wll burn whatever it can find without reguard to what it’s doing to the surroundings. Wisdom helps us keep knowledge to be used in the right way.

Proverbs 1:1 – Proverbs needs to be read slowly and prayerfully to absorb even just a part of God’s instruction. Reading it again this year I see more than the first time.
Proverbs ch 1–31 – Solomon was telling his son over and over to know wisdom but his son turned away from the wise and toward foolishness. This decision split the nation causing the northern kingdom to declare their own king and accepting worship of a false god.
This also goes well with Psalms 37.

Proverbs 1:7 – Yes we must fear God in order to believe Him. If we do not fear God then we say that He does not have the authority to decide our eternal fate. Our sin is the evidence of our rejection of God’s authority over us and condemns us as such. If we do fear God then we will try to understand His plan for our lives. Even when Abraham just believed God, God counted it to his as righteousness.

Proverbs 3:8 – The healing God is talking about is from the connection to our parents as a sinful person rejecting God. The healing will be in our innermost, to be born of the spirit to recognize God and truly revere Him.

Proverbs 3:12 – If you have never been chastened by God for your failure to honor Him then you should be very afraid and call to Him for salvation! Recognition of this fact is the warning that you need that shows God loves you and wants you to trust Him. If we ignore this fact then we only attribute the chastening and warning to other’s interference not God’s love and instruction.

Proverbs 3:13 – Solomon the most wise king explains to us the value of wisdom.

What is His Son’s name? Are they looking for a son of David that is the son of the creator?
Gone to Heaven and come down? Jesus
Gathered the wind? Jesus
Bound the waters? Jesus
Established the earth? Jesus
For without Him there would not be anything made that was made.
