Proverbs 3

(S)
Proverbs 3:5-6 (TPT)
Trust in the Lord completely,
and do not rely on your own opinions.
With all your heart rely on him to guide you,
and he will lead you in every decision you make.
Become intimate with him in whatever you do,
and he will lead you wherever you go

The 7 words in the verses "do not rely on your own opinions" really spoke to me as a reminder that no matter what mind games come, my opinions (or view of the situation) shouldn't be the anchor of my trust. And a sweet reminder to learn to continue to trust and lean on HIM!

(W)
Proverbs 3:12, 21 NKJV
12 For whom the LORD loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights.
21 My son, let them not depart from your eyes— Keep sound wisdom and discretion;

These 2 verses spoke to me in a way reminding me to always be conscious of the Lord's unfailing love for us. It's never about my love for Him. It is all about His love for me and for us. And God sees us not in flesh but in the spirit. And this really reminds me that when Father see us, He sees His Son, Jesus. And this is what pleases and delights Him the most. And we just need to look to Jesus at all times. And God will bless us with 5x more portions (grace superabounding in us) just like the same way Benjamin was blessed with 5x more blessings.

And verse 21 reminds us to always see and behold the word of God and to meditate on them, and this reminded me of the verse Hebrews 12:2 (looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith) which says when we keep seeing Jesus in His grace, His grace will flow through us and in us, and transform us inwardly and outwardly from glory to glory.

These are what spoke to me and reminding me that it's all about His unfailing love for us and Him being faithful. Amen! ๐Ÿ™Œ

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 ืจָืคָื (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...
