Proverbs 16:1-3 – Devotional

Proverbs 16:1-3

“The preparations of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord. All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the spirits. Commit your works to the Lord, and your thoughts will be established.”

TRUST IN THE LORD!

Proverbs 3:5-6 – Devotional

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.”

Over the years I have kept Proverbs 3:5-6 in my heart. I am not sure at what age I set the words to memory, but it certainly has been more than seventy years ago. That is the thing about the Word of God — it never changes. We may change, but the Word of God remains steadfast and true.

To trust means we rely on the strength or ability of someone or something. As we read today’s Scripture we see how vital it is for us to rely on the One who is above all others?

Our task is to place our full trust in the Lord completely. That means we talk with Him as we read His Word and, before we take any action we ask for His will in the matter. Just think of all the messy situations we could have avoided across the years of our lives if we had placed our trust in Him rather than relying on our own abilities or our own understanding.

We may not be able to undo all of our past mistakes when we have left the Lord out of our decisions, but we can certainly do something about it now. We can make a new commitment to repeat these two verses each morning and then follow His directions, TRUST IN THE LORD!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!

AUTHENTIC WISDOM!

Proverbs 10:23 – Devotional

Proverbs 10:23

“It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom.”

“He thinks he’s such a wise guy!” Most of us have heard this expression to describe a person who behaves in a thoughtless manner while seemingly thinking it does not matter how his actions may adversely affect others.

The older I get, the more sensitive I become to how easy it is to cause pain to those around us. Our words or even expressions may turn someone’s day on its end and crush their spirit.

As faithful followers of the Lord Jesus Christ we should make it our aim to build others up rather than leave them feeling crushed and in despair. I know from personal experience what it is like to be taunted and rejected. As a counselor I discovered that many, if not most people that we come in contact with throughout the day are dealing with feelings of inadequacy.

As followers of Jesus we should make it our aim to build others up rather than tearing them down. We should make it our primary aim to encourage the disappointed and lift the fallen in spirit. Authentic wisdom is to share the Real Hope of the world which is Jesus and His saving blood to give us eternal salvation!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
