Proverbs 17

(S)
Key verses that jumped at me
Proverbs 17:9
Love prospers when a fault is forgiven,
but dwelling on it separates close friends.


What spoke to me in the verse
It was a verse that reminds me a lot about Jesus and what He has done to love us! The verse says love prospers when fault is forgiven. Because the Lord has paid the price of our redemption and forgiven us of all our sins, today we can stand before Him and boldly receive His love, His abundant love for us. And the next part of the verse goes on to say that "dwelling on it separates close friends". The Bible records that God remembers our sin NO MORE, so today, He is not dwelling on our sins and our faults, hence we cannot be separated from Him. He is close to us and nothing can separate us from His love (Romans 8:38-39). So today I am reminded that God dearly loves me and NOTHING absolutely nothing, and He doesn't want to either, to be separated from us! How blessed and love are we!

(W)
Pro 17:22 
A merry heart does good, like medicine,
But a broken spirit dries the bones.

This verse spoke to me in a way that a merry heart heals people, when we are at rest. When we are conscious of the Lord's unfailing love for us through Jesus' finished work. Position before provision. Another word for merry is joyful, rejoice. And when we rejoice in the Lord, the finished work of Jesus, for He is our Healer. His amazing grace abounds in us, and like yesterday's powerful message preached by Pastor Prince, we speak to Lord Jesus Christ for He is our Rock, seated next to Daddy God, and every time we speak to the Lord, He gives us living waters. And today, we rejoice in Lord Jesus Christ, for He is everything that we ask for in His name. As Jesus is, so are we. And how we see Lord Jesus, so shall it be for the good things that we are praying to come to pass. If we see Jesus as our Healer, that healing manifest and shall come to pass. Amen!

Proverbs 14

(S) Proverbs 14:30 NKJV A sound heart is life to the body, But envy is rottenness to the bones. A sound heart. Is the key to the body. No wonder it says in Proverbs 4:23 to guard our hearts above all else. Don't you just love how the Lord keeps things simple and straightforward for us? He doesn't give us 101 things to do and be reminded of, He always reminds us of the one thing that is needful. And the hebrew word for "sound" is רָפָא (rapha), which means healed and whole. As our hearts believe that we are healed and whole, by the finished work of Christ, out of it shall flow life and health to our bodies. Proverbs 4:22-23 (NLT) for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body. Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. And if we read the verse that comes before verse 22, the Lord reminds us to pay attention to what He says (the Word of God). He wants us to go back to the word and as He has d...

Proverbs 16

Pro 16:7 When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. What this verse spoke to me is that when we place all trust in the Lord, and be constantly conscious of the Lord's love for us, His grace surely superabounds in us. And God sees us righteous today, becos of the precious and divine exchange between us and Lord Jesus. I was watching the mid-week sermon by Ps Prince earlier on, and Pastor talked about Jesus was at the cross where darkness covered the earth. And this is so that we could walk today and in the future, to be in the shining light of the world. And all favours of God and His blessings will be upon us, the head of righteous (Pro 10:6)! Praise Jesus! Another verse that spoke to me is v9 which says a man's heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps. This shows us that every way that we take, the Lord are always ahead of us, for He goes right before us, protecting us and deliver us from every evils and to provide us...

Proverbs 10

(S) For today's proverbs, I wanted to pick out the promises for the righteous ones and claim it in Jesus name! 🙌🏻 🔸 righteousness delivers from death (v1) - the Lord delivered us from death 🔸The Lord will not allow the righteous soul to famish (v2) - the Lord will not let us go hungry, it is His heart desires to feed us and provide for us, just like how He went to the woman at the well and after ministering to her, He told the disciples, He has food that they do not know of. When we allow the Lord to feed us, He is satisfied... 🔸 Blessings are on the head of the righteous (v5) - the Lord has crown us with blessings, in exchange of the crown of thorns that He bear for us to take away the curse so we can receive blessings upon blessings, grace upon grace! 🔸The memory of the righteous is blessed (v7) - we have the mind of Christ, and even our memory is blessed! 🔸The mouth of the righteous is a well of life (v11) The tongue of the righteous is choice silver (v20) The ...
