Proverbs 3 –GUIDELNES FOR LIVING [a good Old Testament summary] (Read vv 1-12)
You have
probably been told countless times, “It’s for your own good.” When you accept the forgiveness offered to
you through Jesus, besides a new relationship beginning, there is what the
Bible describes as “repentance” - a change of direction, a 180-degree turn
around. Think of it as a new way of
living – new guidelines. Let’s face it;
none of us have done a good job left to our own choices, so why not follow the
direction of the One who knows best?
Consider how some of the guidance given here relates to what we have
already considered in this blog:
- Trust God and follow his way
(Romans 3; John 3),
- Not your own way (Genesis
3).”
