Good Morning!
 
Okay!  Are we ready to "walk" through the third chapter of Proverbs?  I believe that this is going to be "life-changing" for everyone who is ready and willing to receive and obey the simple instructions that God has given us in this chapter.
 
I am only going to take a couple of verses at a time...it seems to me like that is the way that each "different" instruction is set up.  Keep in mind, as we go through these scriptures, that God is allowing us to make "choices".  If we choose to obey the "instruction" that is in a certain verse, then we will have the good results that are in the "next" verse.  It is really so very "simple"!  Now that I have "laid a foundation", I will "build" on it....that is the way that God always does everything!  He lays the foundation first, and then He builds on it, so I prefer to do it like God does it!
 
The "instruction" in verse 1 is....don't "forget" what The Lord teaches you, then be "obedient" to do what He tells you to do.  If you choose to do this, then you will have the results that are listed in verse 2....long life and peace will be added to you!  I am "paraphrasing" in order to keep it simple.
 
Now....take what God has said and speak it out loud.  Say this~~~"Lord, I choose to remember what you are teaching me and I choose to be obedient to do what you have told me to do. Thank you, Lord, for satisfying me with long life and for giving me peace".  Faith will come to you when you hear yourself saying this, because "faith comes by hearing the Word of God" (Romans 10:17).
 
We have only just begun....we have 32 more verses to talk about.  I sure hope that you all will stay with me on this!  I know, in my spirit, that The Lord is using this chapter to help us make the "right" choices in our lives.  So many people are going through bad situations in their life just because they made the "wrong" choices!
 
We will take up verses 3 & 4 next.....What do you think I will say about them?  Don't tell me,  just wait and see if what The Lord has to say is what you expected. 
 
Is this a "cliff-hanger" or what?   See you Monday~~~~~~~
 
Have a Blessed Weekend!      (Keep it Simple!)             In His Love, Luanne
