Proverbs 20

1  Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.

2  The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.

It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.

4  The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.

5  Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.

6  Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?

7  The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.

8  A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes.

9  Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?

10  Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD.

11  Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.

12  The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.

13  Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.

14  It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.

15  There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

16  Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.

17  Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.

18  Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.

19  He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.

20  Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.

21  An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed.

22  Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee.

23  Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good.

24  Man’s goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?

25  It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.

26  A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.

27  The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.

28  Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.

29  The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head.

30  The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.

Abiding Under the Shadow of the Almighty [podcast]


Lord, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke. 16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart:  Jeremiah 15:15-16

Dwelling “in the secret place of the most High”

“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2  I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.” Psalms 91:1-2

“In the secret place of the Most High – Spoken probably in reference to the Holy of holies. He who enters legitimately there shall be covered with the cloud of God’s glory – the protection of the all-sufficient God. This was the privilege of the high priest only, under the law: but under the new covenant all believers in Christ have boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus; and those who thus enter are safe from every evil.” Adam Clarke

“[Psalms] 91:1, 2 Jesus is the One who in a preeminent way dwelt in the secret place of the Most High, and abode under the shadow of the Almighty. There never was a life like His. He lived in absolute, unbroken fellowship with God, His Father. He never acted in self-will but did only those things that the Father directed. Though He was perfect God, He was also perfect Man, and He lived His life on earth in utter and complete dependence on God. Without equivocation He could look up and say, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in Him I will trust.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

Attend to My Words [podcast]


IF THE WORD isn’t flowing into you daily, you are falling away. Flood and fuel your heart and mind and body with the pure, the holy light of God’s Word daily and you will never famish! All darkness will be vanquished (Psalms 119:130). All who have been saved and yet aren’t in God’s Word and prayer daily – have rejected Christ, with no exception. Re-turn to the LORD prodigal. There’s no good outside of Christ the KING.

“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.” Psalms 119:130

ALL who are not in God’s written Word daily are not hearing from God, do not have God’s wisdom and direction, and are walking in darkness – 100%.

The feeding of Christ’s flock would integrally involve exhorting them to diligently study and walk in God’s Word themselves, daily (John 21:15-17). Isn’t this exactly what the apostle Paul told Timothy to do? Yes. He told his understudy to “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15)

One of the ways we know who the false ministers are, is that they want people dependent on THEM, not God. So, they don’t constantly exhort the people to get into God’s Word, the Holy Scriptures, for themselves. Run.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” Joshua 1:8 

“He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live. … My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Proverbs 4:4, 20-23

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16

“Over the last 5-10 years I can see where He has done this for me already, but the problem is …. it’s not enough! I want even more! One hour of study and prayer in the morning is not enough!” Christine
