"Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things." ~Proverbs 28:5

11 Rich people may think they are wise,
but a poor person with discernment can see right through them.

12 When the godly succeed, everyone is glad.
When the wicked take charge, people go into hiding.

13 People who conceal their sins will not prosper,
but if they confess and turn from them, they will receive mercy.

these verses are so true...

[W2L]

NIV

11 The rich are wise in their own eyes;
one who is poor and discerning sees how deluded they are.

14 Blessed is the one who always trembles before God,
but whoever hardens their heart falls into trouble

26 Those who trust in themselves are fools,
but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe

[W2L]

12 When the righteous rejoice, there is great glory;
But when the wicked arise, men hide themselves.

 

[W2L]

13 He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

God help us.

Praying.

so true of some of our members of parliament too, we have a mix of devout Christians and also extreme Marxists,

12 When the righteous rejoice, there is great glory;
But when the wicked arise, men hide themselves.

13 He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

I have found another beautiful lion, yes the righteous are as bold as a lion...

I have found another beautiful lion, yes the righteous are as bold as a lion...

This is really really true, i can attest to that......and i mean in REAL life, where the rubber hits da road.

Whenever one of God's own is facing a "giant" (or several), God has gone on before them and "handled" it already....we just don't know it.

It's the "stepping forward" in faith, knowing that God has surely gone before you that gives the "boldness".

He is GOOD!!!!

Amen!

buuu'tiful

 

[musicalpilgrim]

well...yes I know, I can never resist a lion, but the message is spot on!

 

[musicalpilgrim]

verse 26 is very true to me, I pray for wisdom, I trust the Word of the Lord...is that wisdom? May be I have found what I have been seeking...

26 Those who trust their own insight are foolish,
but anyone who walks in wisdom is safe.

Proverbs 28:

Shedding innocent blood.

AKA "Frenemies".

Woe to those who deliberately attempt to cause one of God's own to stumble, or to seek their downfall, "set them up", conspire against them, or pretends to be a "friend" but has a dagger behind their back. It's the equivalent of "shedding innocent blood". God abhors deception. It is written. In the 7 things that God hates, it is written:

"These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren." ~Pro 6:16-19
