#Proverbs 14
Text
The Wise Woman
1 The wise woman builds her house,
But the woman of folly tears it down with her own hands.
2 He who walks in his uprightness fears Yahweh,
But he who is devious in his ways despises Him.
3 In the mouth of the ignorant fool is a rod of lofty pride,
But the lips of the wise will keep them.
4 Where no oxen are, the manger is clean,
But much revenue comes by the strength of the ox.
5 A faithful witness will not lie,
But a false witness breathes out lies.
6 A scoffer seeks wisdom and finds none,
But knowledge is easy to one who has understanding.
7 Leave the presence of a fool,
As you have not known lips of knowledge there.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way,
But the folly of fools is deceit.
9 Ignorant fools scoff at guilt,
But among the upright there is favor.
10 The heart knows its own bitterness,
And a stranger does not share its gladness.
11 The house of the wicked will be destroyed,
But the tent of the upright will flourish.
12 There is a way which seems right to a man,
But its end is the way of death.
13 Even in laughter the heart may be in pain,
And the end of joy may be grief.
14 The one who turns back in his heart will be satisfied with his ways,
But a good man will be satisfied with his.
15 The simple believes everything,
But the prudent one discerns his steps.
16 A wise man fears and turns away from evil,
But a fool gets angry and feels secure.
17 A quick-tempered man acts in folly,
And a man of evil schemes is hated.
18 The simple inherit folly,
But the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
19 The evil will bow down before the good,
And the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
20 The poor is hated even by his neighbor,
But those who love the rich are many.
21 He who despises his neighbor sins,
But how blessed is he who is gracious to the poor.
22 Will they not wander in error who devise evil?
But lovingkindness and truth will be to those who devise good.
23 In all painful labor there is profit,
But mere words from the lips lead only to want.
24 The crown of the wise is their riches,
But the folly of fools is folly.
25 A truthful witness delivers souls,
But he who breathes out lies is deceitful.
26 In the fear of Yahweh there is strong security,
And his children will have refuge.
27 The fear of Yahweh is a fountain of life,
To turn aside from the snares of death.
28 In a multitude of people is a king’s splendor,
But in the dearth of people is a prince’s ruin.
29 He who is slow to anger has great discernment,
But he who is quick-tempered raises up folly.
30 A tranquil heart is life to the body,
But jealousy is rottenness to the bones.
31 He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker,
But he who is gracious to the needy honors Him.
32 The wicked is thrust down by his own evil,
But the righteous takes refuge even in his death.
33 Wisdom rests in the heart of one who has understanding,
But in the midst of fools it is merely made known.
34 Righteousness exalts a nation,
But sin is a disgrace to any people.
35 The king’s favor is toward a servant who acts insightfully,
But his fury is toward him who acts shamefully.

PROVERBS S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 14
Thursday, 3/2/23
SCRIPTURE:
A truthful witness saves lives,
but a false witness is deceitful.
~ Proverbs 14:25
OBSERVATION:
"A truthful witness..." to God's grace and salvation...
"...a false witness..." how I've earned His grace and salvation...
...or worse, claiming He's changed my life but not living His change...
APPLICATION:
Be a mindful witness...
Live a truthful witness's life...
Witness to His grace and salvation...
Work in His grace and salvation - not for it...
PRAYER:
Faithful and true Heavenly Father God - I ask forgiveness for the actions and words that seek to deny my witness to Your grace and the change in my life - to those things that slip out before I even realize it, belying my claims of a changed life through Your Son Jesus... I ask that Your Spirit continue to hold my tongue and restrain - change - my heart from the reflexive response, and encourage me to be a truthful witness to Your love and grace and forgiving power in my life... In Jesus's saving Name, and for Your glory, Father, not mine...
Yours - joyfully in Him... because of Him...

Discipline on the path of life
Discipline on the path of life
Believers must constantly evaluate their choices in light of the eternal purpose of God.
Proverbs 5:21-23 – For a man’s ways are before the eyes of Yahweh, and he ponders all his paths. The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin. He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray.
Believers cannot become complacent within…

Sincerity Having Peace Instagram Post. 06/27/2022 8:00am
31 You insult your Maker when you exploit the powerless;
when you’re kind to the poor, you honor God.
32 The evil of bad people leaves them out in the cold;
the integrity of good people creates a safe place for living.

fools never even get to say…

i really like the book of proverbs because on one hand you've got your poetic musings on god and wisdom and on the other hand you've got the very practical advice of "if you loudly greet your neighbor early in the morning, he will think of it as a curse"

The Wise Woman
1 Every wise woman buildeth her house, but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.
2 He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD, but he that is perverse in his ways despiseth Him.
3 The mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride, but the lips of the wise shall preserve him.
4 Where no oxen are, the crib is clean, but much increase comes by the strength of the ox.
5 A faithful witness will not lie, but a false witness will utter lies.
6 A scorner seeketh wisdom and findeth it not, but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth.
7 Go from the presence of a foolish man when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way, but the folly of fools is to be deceived.
9 Fools mock at sin, but among the righteous there is favor.
10 The heart knoweth his own bitterness, and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy.
11 The house of the wicked shall be overthrown, but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish.
12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
13 Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful, and the end of that mirth is heaviness.
14 The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways, and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.
15 The simple believeth every word, but the prudent man looketh well to his going.
16 A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil, but the fool rageth and is confident.
17 He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly, and a man of wicked devices is hated.
18 The simple inherit folly, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
19 The evil bow before the good, the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
20 The poor is hated even by his own neighbor, but the rich hath many friends.
21 He that despiseth his neighbor sinneth, but he that hath mercy on the poor, happy is he.
22 Do they not err that devise evil? But mercy and truth shall be to them that devise good.
23 In all labor there is profit, but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.
24 The crown of the wise is their riches, but the foolishness of fools is folly.
25 A truthful witness delivereth souls, but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.
26 In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence, and His children shall have a place of refuge.
27 The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life to depart from the snares of death.
28 In a multitude of people is the honor of the king, but the lack of people is the destruction of the prince.
29 He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding, but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.
30 A sound heart is the life of the flesh, but envy is the rottenness of the bones.
31 He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker, but he that honoreth Him hath mercy on the poor.
32 The wicked is driven away in his wickedness, but the righteous hath hope in his death.
33 Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding, but that which is innermost in fools is made known.
34 Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.
35 The king's favor is toward a wise servant, but his wrath is against him that causeth shame.

Life Lived On God’s Terms
Life Lived On God’s Terms
13 Even in laughter the heart may ache,
and the end of joy may be grief.
14 The backslider in heart will be filled with the fruit of his ways,
and a good man will be filled with the fruit of his ways.
15 The simple believes everything,
but the prudent gives thought to his steps.
16 One who is wise is cautious and turns away from evil,
but a fool is reckless and careless.
