Proverbs 27-29 / June 17 (Day 169)

Proverbs 27:7  A satisfied soul loathes the honeycomb, But to a hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
-          The key to receiving all of God is continuing to remain very hunger for everything He has for you. Often you will need to receive bitter things, but with true hunger and love for the Lord, those things remain sweet.

Proverbs 28:8  One who increases his possessions by usury and extortion Gathers it for him who will pity the poor.
-          The LORD pities the poor and will funnel provision into the hands of those who will pity them also. Make sure you pity and give to the poor.

Proverbs 28:23  He who rebukes a man will find more favor afterward Than he who flatters with the tongue.
-          We need to be more concerned about loving people than them loving us. Sometimes we need to rebuke or correct someone in love (even someone who we haven’t known long). If we are the type of person who only says things to make others feel good, that selfishness will be seen in time.

I am also now reading a book by Steven Scott "the Richest Man Who Ever Lived" about Solomon and the book of Proverbs.
Steven Scott failed misrably after college at every job he had and at his marraige. I think it was seven jobs he was fired from.
Then he asked a friend Gary Smalley for his advise on what he could do to change this. Gary prayed about it and told Steven Scott to study one chapter of Proverbs every day for a month, since there is 31 chapters so one every day. Steven continued to do this every month for and after some time his entire life was turned around. Now he is a multi millionaire and his marriage and life is turned completley around. He wasn't seeking necessarily to be a millionaire but he was seeking wisdom and success.
There is so much advise in Proverbs on how to live our daily life that is so practical.

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all your getting get understanding.
Proverbs 4:4
