PROVERBS 21:30-31
        Pro 21:30 There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.

I love this verse there is nothing that can be used against GOD, this verse makes me think of the great white throne judgment, no one will have excuses, GOD knows all!!

        Isa 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
        Isa 46:11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
        Isaiah 14:27 For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?

Seems that the world wants this day to come always harassing Israel and Christians all over the globe, I know it is the sign of the times, but how do they think that GOD will not win is beyond me. They can send every nuclear bomb at him and The LAMB is just going to laugh at them!! Then they will experience how grapes feel in the wine press, smashed, don’t that just sound like fun. I will take safety of the LORD.

        Rev 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
        Rev 14:19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
        Rev 14:20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
        Psa 140:7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.

   PROVERBS 20:30
        Pro 20:30  The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.

Chose this verse cause wasn’t sure what it meant, just looking at it the blueness reminds me of the word of GOD, that would cleanseth away evil, the stripes remind me of that rod to the back side, so I will have to put that KJV to work and it will tell us what it means. Blue is symbol of deity. The first part cleanseth away evil: Hebrew meaning is a purging medicine against evil. Also GOD tell us in numbers to:

         Num 15:38  Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue:
         Num 15:39  And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring:
         Num 15:40  That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.

Blue reminds me of Moses when he was up on Sinai

         Exo 24:10 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.

The second half of the verse is the rod on our back sides

        Pro 22:15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
        Pro 19:25 Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
         Heb 12:10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

Remember how our parents would tell us that the spanking hurt them more than us, we see that GOD spanks our rears wonder if it hurts GOD like it does when we spank our kids?

  PROVERBS 19:2
        Pro 19:2  Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.

It was not long ago that I was that soul and it was not good seemed that I was always looking for that one thing to make me whole and no matter what I did I was never satisfied. I walked around in ignorance, I was like a dog they have no soul. The whole time never thought about my soul.

          Psa 49:20  Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.
          Hos 4:6  My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

This verse is the truth I had rejected knowledge, Glory to GOD, He gave me a chance to receive His knowledge, all I had to do was put down that pride and surrender to JESUS.

             Ecc 12:9  And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs.

Never payed attention to my feet always made rash decisions did not care about the penalty, was inconsiderate of others all I cared about was myself. Then JESUS changed all that!!!   I believe these next verses with all my heart!

             Eze 36:26  A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
             Psa 57:7  My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.

                              PROVERBS 18:22
         Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.

This verse I have chose because it amazes me what the Bible says about the wife. A good wife is a blessing to us men, some might not see it that way but when I was lost I had no idea of how important a wife is. What was cool is the fact that my wife was a gift from GOD and I was lost, I know this cause my wife is my best friend and as the years go by it keeps getting better. She has always been there never wants to be without me that’s crazy all by itself there are times I can’t stand myself. I never prayed for her because I was lost GOD just put her in my life, right after my vacation in Cobb county detention facility otherwise I’d probably be in Alabama now. Now that I study GODs word I find verses like these and see GOD has always been there some people think that GOD doesn’t help the lost then what is this. I thank GOD for the blessing of a virtuous woman.

         Ecc 9:9 Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.

  PROVERBS 17:28
        Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

I chose this verse cause; do you ever feel like GOD said SHUT UP? Maybe it’s just me, to me GOD is telling us that even a fool knows when to be quite, makes the fool look wise. This man doesn’t say much because he is a fool and is trying to hide his foolish ways. The other man shutteth his lips because he knows when to talk and stays on point and tries not to deviate from the subject at hand. This man is the guy who is cool headed and of good spirit. These are the guys that are scary they never get mad or angry always cool, but if they ever do blow man look out, I worked with a guy just like this never got mad never got angry loved the LORD. I worked with him for about 7 years not one time did he get mad didn’t talk a lot either, then he found out his wife was having an affair that didn’t seem to bother him either they had one kid a boy, I think he was 4 or 5 years old. His ex wife then had moved to Florida and she decided one day that she was going to take their son from him and go back to Florida, he had custody of the boy she was basically kid napping the kid. That was the day he blew, I never seen anybody that angry before, still haven’t to this day. The point is that only GOD knows the heart and what is inside us it’s hard to tell who is the fool and who is really sold out to JESUS these days.

         Psa 44:21  Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
         Jer 20:12    But, O LORD of hosts, that triest the righteous, and seest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I opened my cause.
          1Ch 28:9  And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.

                                PROVERBS 16:19
            Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.

Chose this verse so we can have a humble spirit and not be proud. We saw the other day what happen to the proud and the greedy, so let’s see what happens when we humble our self’s before GOD!

           Luke 18:13-14 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

JESUS tells us those who exalteth them self shall be abased which means they will be brought down by JESUS not on their own, he that humbleth himself shall be exalted,  those who chose to be humble JESUS will exalt in the end. Our American view is that humble people are weak and get walked on, JESUS was the most humble to ever live and He was far from weak. JESUS was a carpenter, when i was younger I framed houses and you can not be a pansy and do that type of work. JESUS was the strongest man I have ever heard about, they beat this man to death if any of us was to endure the beating that JESUS got we would have died way before the cross. All these punks and guys that run around like Billy bad butt think they are tough they don’t have nothing, JESUS was and is and will always be THE MAN, THE GOD MAN!!   JESUS is the king of humility and we have to look at his life to see how to be humble and JESUS was never less man cause of humility it makes JESUS more man!!

           Mat 3:13-15   Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.
           Mat 20:28    Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
           Luke 22:27  For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
           Phi 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
           John 13:5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

 The last verse where JESUS washed the disciples feet that was the low of the low job back then not only that JESUS washed Judas feet the man that was stealing from JESUS the one who betrayed JESUS and JESUS knew it the whole time and still humbled Himself and washed his feet. I don’t know about you guys but that takes a REAL MAN.  This is something the world cannot understand and will not do, Matthew Henry says that humility recommends us to the favor of GOD, qualifies us for His gracious visits, prepares us for His Glory, secures us from many temptations, and preserves the quiet and repose of our own souls. Can we just try to be humble it won’t kill us just help us walk better.

HERE  PROVERBS 15:25-27
             Prov 15:25 The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow.
             Prov 15:27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.

I have chosen these verses today because we see a lot of this going on today. The LORD will destroy the house of the proud and He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house,  the first part of these verses go together the proud and greedy, most people that are proud are also greedy they take pride in the money. We see this in preachers today let’s say that Corey was offered $3000 dollars to preach but the message is not the truth those people are trying to pay Corey to preach the thoughts of the wicked that would be an abomination to The LORD. There are preachers that will do it, that would be greedy gain and prideful. The prideful magnify themselves, they bid defiance to GOD above us and trample on all around them, they do it for greedy gain. This also destroys the house to, being there home and the church house. It is nothing but blood money just like Judas. The same thing happened in Joshua with Achan:

          Jos 7:11-12 Israel hath sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it even among their own stuff.  Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because they were accursed: neither will I be with you any more, except ye destroy the accursed from among you.

We see how he stole from the LORD in these verses they put it among their stuff, GOD says to destroy the accursed, the same as abomination to the LORD.

         Jos 7:24-25 And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them unto the valley of Achor. And Joshua said, Why hast thou troubled us? the LORD shall trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them with fire, after they had stoned them with stones.

I think that I will do it GODs way greed and pride is not worth the cost. We see how they lost their house and all their family to, that’s what happens today just like 5000 years ago and we think we are smarter now days don’t see much difference still sinners. The second half of the verses: but he will establish the border of the widow, but he that hateth gifts shall live. Do you guys see the black and white in all these verses notice that there is no gray area in them? It brings GOD glory to protect the widows and the weak. Widows are not able to defend them self’s and that is why it is our job to look after them, back to the preacher that don’t take the bribe and money for their gain GOD blesses their family and they are righteous before the LORD.

       Deu 10:17-18 For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward: He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
       Isa 33:15-16 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.

I thank GOD that Pastor Corey is a preacher of the pure Word of GOD. Like it says in the second half of verse 26.
Sorry for using you brother as a example but you are the only preacher I know, at least we will know if you read these or not! LOL

      James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

  PROVERBS 14:15 14:25
        Prov 14:15 The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.
        Prov 14:25 A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.

These two verse kind of go hand in hand  the simple become the deceitful witness, the prudent man is the true witness. when I first got saved there were a bunch of deceitful witness around me by the grace of GOD I made it thru that, I was like the prudent man I did not believe everything that they told me I would do research to see what was true and what was not, I still got messed up on some things like I did not believe that we had to go to church, I thought it was alright for women to preach. As I grew and prayed The LORD showed me that it was not right so I stop doing it. The point is that not everything you hear or see on internet is true, not every church is true, not all pastors are true, GOD said the prudent look well to his goings, study it out, where are you going, how do you know? Did a true witness tell you or deceitful witnesses tell you?

      1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world
       Act 13:7 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.
         2 Peter 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
         1 Tim 4:1-3 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

These verses are so true forbidding to marry that goes on right now men and women coexist now days, look at all the vegans and vegetarians that abstain from meats all Christians need to eat steak!! LOL

  PROVERBS 13:24
        He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

This verse I chose because in America most kids rule the house, I looked at some statistics about just teenage kids and discipline in the home. They asked teens what their punishment would be for stealing or drinking alcohol.

46% would get grounded / privileges taken away
8% would get the  rod like the LORD says
8% get talked to  ( boy you in trouble now)
3% let the police handle it
3% would never do those things  (probably Christian)
1% get help
9% don’t know

Call me old fashion but my child would have a red hinny, love my kids and believe even when I was lost that a rod to the back side when needed is a good thing. Sad to say but this country lets kids rule, look at the pop culture and TV shows everything is made around them, I even know parents that do their kids homework instead of making them do it there self. Believe or not this is and has become Idolatry worship the kids when they rule over the parents they have become gods to the parents. I have seen this with my own eyes and we wonder why this country is going downhill. Sad thing is more than likely these kids end up in hell. Those statistics above are mind blowing that 3% are probably Christians and that 8% would get the rod it is crazy.

         Prov 19:18 Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
         Prov 22:15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
         Prov 23:13-14 Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die. Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell.
           Pro 29:15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
         Prov 29:17 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
         Prov 30:11 There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
         Heb 12:6-8 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?  But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
         Isa 3:5 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable.

Please understand that I am not angry at the kids but the parents. We need to wake up America get back to The WORD of GOD and take back our children because satan is having a good time with them. Pray for our children and for those parents that let them rule over the house.

  PROVERBS 12:21
         There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.

This verse proves that we are sealed by the Holy Spirit, we still go thru problems and bad things do happen but we know that it is not evil. Most time The LORD is chasten us, we tend to get angry at what is happening  to us and blame GOD, we should find a local mirror and blame who’s image we see in the mirror, more than likely that’s whose fault it is.

        Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
We still face temptations and trails even through all of those GOD is still helping us and goes through it with us.
          1Cor 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
           2Peter 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
We should walk with out fear of anything but The LORD!!

The second half of the verse says but the wicked shall be filled with mischief. I understand this, remembering where I came from I was full of mischief and evil, the longer I lived the meaner I got and the more wicked I got, sin is madness, I know that I am still a sinner but JESUS changed my heart,
I still struggle with being nice and loving people, it just don’t go away over night GOD is working on me every day, I have to do a lot of repenting and ask forgiveness from people and GOD cause we sin against GOD and GOD alone.The good news is JESUS saves and he died for all of us and:

            Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
           1Cor 3:22-23 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.

Those two verses sum it up nothing to fear but GOD alone. Don’t worry the wicked will get what is coming to them unless they repent and ask JESUS to come into their heart!

          Rev 18:6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
            Hab 2:16 Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the LORD’S right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory.

                 WE MUST NEEDS TO PRAY FOR THIS LOST WORLD AND LOST PEOPLE!!!
