Proverbs 9 June 9, 2012
Memory Verse: Proverbs 9:10 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.”
Today’s lesson seems to speak to the seven foundation pillars upholding the house that Jesus built at this time.
1) Preparation
2) Planning
3) Humility
4) Communion is sought
5) Hard Choices must be made
6) Pride must be vanquished
7) Proper counseling approach must be determined
He goes on to explain teaching a wise or just person will be more rewarding, but respect for His Word is essential to growth. Live wisely as explained and His wisdom will fill your very being.
Satan, the old prostitute, is then described here also. The seven things to look out for are: He is brazen, empty-headed or changeable, Frivolous, Beckons to momentary pleasure, Secrecy is demanded, Deceit brings pride, and these actions will lead to the straight, broad road to hell. In short, we must always ask, “What would Jesus Do?”
