In Proverbs 5, 6:23-35, and 7 the Father warns his son and all God's people against unfaithfulness to God and unfaithfulness within marriage.

Proverbs 9 presents the reader with 2 metaphorical “women” to follow. One woman is wisdom and the other is folly. In just eighteen verses the author shows us the breadth of wisdom, how to discern scoffers and how to deal with those scoffers. From this Proverb, the hearer will be encouraged to choose wisdom over folly.

Do you want the playbook? We want to know what God does, wisdom is often mistaken as a pursuit of morality and finding what is right and wrong, but wisdom involves what we should do in all life’s situations.

Proverbs 8 shows us that gaining wisdom to apply to life’s events will lead to greater human flourishing, gaining relationship with the wisdom of God will lead to eternal flourishing of your entire being.

In this sermon on Proverbs 6:1-22 God gives us instruction on handling money, working hard, and living differently in light of our faith. This Proverb is a hopeful charge to push us all to pursuing wisdom.

Proverbs 4, shows the love of a father telling the next generation of God's people how to live well (4b), to be at peace (16), to not stumble and suffer because of foolish choices (19), to experience healing spiritually and mentally (22), to be focused (25), and to have stability throughout their lives (26). He says the key to living in this way is by growing in wisdom, because it is only through wisdom that we can navigate life well.

As we listen to the father's words, we will begin to understand our need for wisdom and determine to get it, and as we walk on this wise path that the father has established, his wisdom will be revealed in and through us.
