Proverbs, Chapter 12

12:1 Whoever loves correction loves knowledge; But he who hates reproof is brutish.

12:2 The good will obtain favor of Yahweh; But a man of wicked devices he will condemn.

12:3 Man will not be established by wickedness; But the root of the righteous will not be moved.

12:4 A worthy woman is the crown of her husband; But she who brings shame is as rottenness in his bones.

12:5 The thoughts of the righteous are just; [but] the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

12:6 The words of the wicked are of lying in wait for blood; But the mouth of the upright will deliver them.

12:7 The wicked are overthrown, and are not; But the house of the righteous will stand.

12:8 A man will be commended according to his wisdom; But he who is of a perverse heart will be despised.

12:9 Better is he who is lightly esteemed, and has a slave, Than he who honors himself, and lacks bread.

12:10 A righteous man regards the life of his beast; But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

12:11 He who tills his land will have plenty of bread; But he who follows after vanities is void of understanding.

12:12 The wicked desires the net of evil men; But the root of the righteous yields [fruit].

12:13 In the transgression of the lips is a snare to the evil man; But the righteous will come out of trouble.

12:14 A man will be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth; And the doings of man's hands will come back to him.

12:15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes; But he who is wise harkens to counsel.

12:16 A fool's vexation is presently known; But a prudent man conceals shame.

12:17 He who utters truth shows forth righteousness; But a false witness, deceit.

12:18 There is one who speaks rashly like the piercings of a sword; But the tongue of the wise is health.

12:19 The lip of truth will be established forever; But a lying tongue is but for a moment.

12:20 Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil; But to the counselors of peace is joy.

12:21 No mischief will happen to the righteous; But the wicked will be filled with evil.

12:22 Lying lips are disgusting to Yahweh; But those who deal truly are his delight.

12:23 [A] prudent man conceals knowledge; But the heart of fools proclaims foolishness.

12:24 The hand of the diligent will bear rule; But the slothful will be put under slave labor.

12:25 Heaviness in the heart of a man makes it stoop; But a good word makes it glad.

12:26 The righteous is a guide to his fellow man; But the way of the wicked causes them to err.

12:27 The slothful does not roast what he took in hunting; But the precious riches of man [is] diligence.

12:28 In the way of righteousness is life; And in its well-built road there is no death.

[Willy]

I want to be caught up with Jesus in clouds and be with God forever and ever that is the deepest desire of my heart. This world is not my home. I am just passing through and I am looking forward to see Jesus in heaven. He has promised all of us. No more tears, no more pain nor suffering. We will have fullness of joy. I Thes. 4.16 says.. For the Lord himself will come down in the clouds from heaven. With a loud command. I really want to hear what that command is. I am sure He will say. Come unto me ye that are heavy layden and I will give you rest. What a wonderful day that will be. To be with Jesus in the clouds going home to heaven. The righteous is a guide to his fellow man. Prov. 12.26 Let us all be a guide to those who are living in sin and reject the word of God. Make us lord Jesus a shining light where sinners will see it and walk in it and be saved. In your precious name we pray. Amen

Whoever loves correction loves knowledge. Proverbs 12.1a  We sin in word, thought and deed and need correction many times. Our heavenly Father wants all His dear children corrected and directed to the right road.  Narrow is the way that leads to heaven. So let us swith roads. From the wide sinful road to the narrow but full of hardship road that ends up in paradise.  We want to see Jesus. Sooner of later we are gona be on our way to heaven. Let us prepare ourselves to see God face to face.  That will be a wonderful experience for all of us who love Him with our whole heart and soul.  Blessed Jesus, we see the sings of your coming and we are waiting with open arms to embrace your holy presence in our midst. Save the souls of our loved ones, our friends, our coworkers and everyone we meet on the street. In Jesus name. Amen

In the presence of Jehovah sweet communion we have found. In the presence of the Lord there is peace that last for ever and ever.  We must seek daily the holy presence of Jesus who is who was and who is to come to take us home to heaven.  Proverbs 12.14  A man shall be satisfied with good  by the words of his mouth.  Let your words be a blessing not a curse. Let your lips offer song of praises to our God. He hears from heaven above all that we say to others. You will be satisfied with good that comes from God when you use your mouth to preach, to teach and to share the gospel of Jesus to your next door neighbors and those you come in contact with. 
 

 

[Tamarah]

A good man obtained a favor from the Lord. Prov. 12. 2a  Those who are going through a rough time and coworkers are giving you a hard time then pray for them. Do them good and not evil. Usually when people are against you the Lord reveals His secret to love the unloved, to pray for those who speak evil of you and then the reward comes your way by the aproval of Jesus.  Well done faithful servant.  He will give you peace down deep in your heart and you have won one more soul to glory.  Dear God, we pray for those people who love to give us a hard time and get on our nerves. Save their souls we pray in Jesus name. Amen

 

[Kayla]

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts and then shall every man have praise of God.  I Cor. 4.5 Let us know judge others on how the should dress, how they should eat or how they should conduct in front of others.  Pray for them, fast and ask God to save their souls and all hidden things of darkness wil come to light.  Only God can reveal the truth down deep in our hearts.  Proverbs 12.17a  He who utters truth shows forth righteiousness. The Lord Jesus Himself will reveal us all truth when we serve and worship Him with our whole being.

 

[Emmanuelle]

Incarnation means that the infinite God  the One who spoke the universe into existence, actually became man. It took the sinless nature and became our Saviour and Lord.  Blessed be the name of God our Father who send His Son to die for our sins. Man will not be established by wickedness. But the root of the righteous will not be moved.  Prov. 12.3  Dear Jesús, we pray for all the wicked and sinful people who are far away from you. Please save their souls and bring them to church to hear the Word of God. All abortionists, all humanists, all atheists should repent from their sins and get save so they will enter the kingdom of God when they die. In Jesús name.   Amen

 

[Lambert]

You may not have a good start, but you may have a good finish if you start serving God and doing His will. He is our confort in times of trouble. He is our shield from the torments from hell. He will guide your steps towards the right direction. Our goal is reaching heaven where we are gona see Jesus face to face and He will give you the crown of life for having done His will.

 

[Loren]

Among you there must no be even a hint of sexual immorality, or any kind of impurity, or of greed.  Eph. 5.3a   Yes Jesus, we must be holy and pure in order to enter into the kingdom of God. Follow peace with all men and holiness without which no man shall see the Lord.  This is a wonderful advise for each one of us who want to get to heaven right there when they die. Proverbs 12.17a  He who utters truth shows forth righteousness.  May my lips utter the praises of God and show that we are really and truly Christians who love God with our whole hearts and soul.

[Creamer]

If it were not for Jesus in my heart I will be lost for ever and ever. But His mercy and love have recue me and help me to read His word. I just thank Him for being so close to my heart.

 

[Corah]

The good will obtain the favor of Yahweh.  Prov. 12.2a   If we serve God with gladness and see that souls are coming to the feet of the cross, then it is time to praise and honor Jesus for His wonderful plan of salvation to all who come to Him with a humble heart.  Let us obtain the favor of the Lord Jesus be serving Him as Sunday school teacher, song leader, deacon or an usher.  God will see the good of your heart and will bless you greatly.
