Now! Proverbs 3
Verse 3 says in Message Translation "Don't lose your grip on Love and Loyalty. Tie them around your neck; carve their initials on your heart.
"I believe that no matter the situation we are in, we shouldn't lose our grip on our loyalty and love. One of the interesting part of this chapter is that there is a reward for foolishness and wisdom It is a glorious inheritance for the wise For the fool it is an elevation of shame (a car on reverse is actually in motion but the direction is backward ever)
Verse 35 Earning a reputation for oneself is important in living
Proverbs 3:9 Honor God with everything you own; give him the first and the best.
Proverbs 3:10 Your barns will burst, your wine vats will brim over. Proverbs 3:11 But don't, dear friend, resent God's discipline; don't sulk under his loving correction.
Proverbs 3:12 It's the child he loves that God corrects; a father's delight is behind all this. The Very Tree of Life There is so much to gain in wisdom.
Verse 13-18 shows them to us Yes!
Proverbs 3:21 Dear friend, guard Clear Thinking and Common Sense with your life; don't for a minute lose sight of them.
Proverbs 3:22 They'll keep your soul alive and well, they'll keep you fit and attractive.
Proverbs 3:25 No need to panic over alarms or surprises, or predictions that doomsday's just around the corner,
Proverbs 3:29 Don't figure ways of taking advantage of your neighbor when he's sitting there trusting and unsuspecting.
Proverbs 3:30 Don't walk around with a chip on your shoulder, always spoiling for a fight.
Proverbs 3:31 Don't try to be like those who shoulder their way through life. Why be a bully?
Proverbs 3:32 "Why not?" you say. Because God can't stand twisted souls. It's the straightforward who get his respect.
Proverbs 3:33 God's curse blights the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous.
Proverbs 3:34 He gives proud skeptics a cold shoulder, but if you're down on your luck, he's right there to help.
Proverbs 3:35 Wise living gets rewarded with honor; stupid living gets the booby prize. Verse 23-24 is such a solace after the not so pleasant orientation about where I stay. Now I know the weapons of agbowo has got no part of me and mine ????. There is a bigger arsenal to my favour. Remembering how Americans charge their teams
Verse 1 teaches me to put into practice all I'd learnt about my Heavenly Father....... While in verse 5, my father expects me to have understanding but no matter how 'brilliant' or 'understanding' I may be , He wants my TOTALITY
Verse 34 gives us the prize of sincerity Above all 1. Love and Loyalty is an initial for growth 2. When we give God our all (time, resources and gifts) our barns would be full and we would experience unprecedented increase vs 9&10 3. The person who is loved by the father is chastised by the father more than others.
