PROVERBS 3...
The following is an outline of verses 1-14 of the 3rd chapter of the
Proverbs of Solomon, Son of David. As we look into this chapter
we will discover the "secrets" (Wisdom) for living successfully in
the eyes of God and man. The Proverbs of Solomon are not law.
Proverbs are to be used as a guide to pleasing the Lord and living
a successful and righteous life.
I. Keep God's Law, live long in peace. vs. 1-2
II. Make mercy and truth the effort from you heart and find favor
with God and man. vs. 3-4
III. Trust the Lord God, rather than your understanding, submit
to him, and He will give you direction. vs. 5-6
IV. Do not be too proud to fear the Lord and you will be healthier
and stronger. vs. 7-8
V. Honor the Lord with your possessions and increase to enjoy
freedom from want. vs. 9-10
VI. Accept Chastening from the Lord and find Happiness, Wisdom
and Understanding. Those who are loved of the Lord (His follo-
wers) he corrects. vs. 11-12
VII. Wisdom and understanding tend to make a man satisfied in
life. (Blessed) It is better than that of silver and gold. vs. 13-14
The book of proverbs contains 31 chapters, making it convenient
to read a chapter daily each month. The third chapter has become
one of my favorite passages of Scripture.
"My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my command-
ments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add
to thee."
"Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck
write them upon the tables of thine heart.
So shall thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of
God and man."
"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own
understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct
thy paths."
"Be not wise in thine own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil.
It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones."
"Honor the Lord with thy substance, and with the first fruits of all
thine increase. So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy pres-
ses shall burst out with New wine."
"My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary
of his correction: For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth; even
as a father the son in whom he delighteth."
" Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth
understanding. For the merchandise of it is better than the merchan-
dise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold." (kjv)
