Vessels of HonorEach day we walk
through the Bible chapter by chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can
be made from each day's text. Today we continue with the Book of Proverbs with Chapter 25. In our text today we start wisdom
for leaders as Solomon directed this proverb to the king which are excellent words of wisdom for leaders. What catches my
eye is verse 4 which says if we separated the dross from the silver we will have a finer vessel. In making application we
see that we too need to have the impurities sifted from our lives to make ourselves vessels worthy of honor. How about you?
Do you see the impurities in your life that need to be sifted? Let us learn from our text today to remember that we need to
be sifted to remove the impurities in our lives so we can be vessels of honor fit for the Masters use.

Diligence Each
day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications
can be made from each day's text. Today we continue with the Book of Proverbs with Chapter 24. In our text today we continue
in words of wisdom from proverbs, what catches my eye is the theme in this chapter of sowing and reaping and how the Lord
allows those who work hard to be blessed while those who are slothful will end up in poverty. In making application we see
a pattern for diligence that will produce a fruitful life. As we leaned yesterday we are not to place our trust in riches
but at the same time we are to be diligent in all we do. How about you? Are you diligent? Let us learn from our text today
to remember to not place our trust in riches but at the same time to be tillage in all we do to receive the blessings of the
Lord.

Seeking Wealth Each
day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications
can be made from each day's text. Today we continue with the Book of Proverbs with Chapter 23. In our text today we continue
in words of wisdom from proverbs, from alchol to realtionships and everthing inbetween. What catches my eye is how we are
not seek wealth as it can come and go but seek the Lord. In making application see that money is simply a means of exchange
for goods and services. We are to work but not to seek wealth but to seek the Lord as He is our Provider. Today many think
that wealth will make you happy but the truth is that wealth people are among the most unhappy people in the world today.
Those who have the Lord and follow His Word are truly full of joy. How about you? Are you full of Joy? Let us learn from our
text today to that wealth does not bring lasting happiness and our Joy is in the Lord.

A Good Name Each
day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications
can be made from each day's text. Today we continue with the Book of Proverbs with Chapter 22. In our text today we continue
in words of wisdom from the Lord. What catches my eye is verse 1 which says a Good Name is rather to be chosen than great
riches. In making application we see how integrity is not only Godly for a witness to our Heavenly Father but also a practical,
profitable, proverb. Recently we our business received several jobs during a busy time in our industry. It was our "Good
Name" that allowed us to receive these jobs as our old customers referred us to our new customers. Our goal has always
to Glorify the Lord in our business for a witness unto Him but this practical application has profited me and my family in
the process that brings this Proverb to life. How about you? Do you choose a "Good Name" over your own personal
gain? Let us learn from our text today to remember that a "Good Name" that comes from treating others right not
only Glorifies our Lord but also is profitable as the Lord blesses those who put God first in all they say and do.

Changing a NationEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter making an application of
our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we continue with the Book
of Proverbs with Chapter 21. In our text today we continue in words of wisdom from the Lord. What catches my eye is how the
Kings heart is in the hand of the Lord. Even the Bible that you read today is in your hands today due the Lord changing the
heart of a wicked King. In making application we see that our country and others have leaders that are ungodly. Knowing this
it is hard to work under the authority of these leaders but the Bible instructs us to pray and seek God to have an ungodly
Kings heart changed. Today our leaders approve of sins that are an abomination from abortion to homosexuality but even so,
the heart of King is in the Lord's Hand. If we humble ourselves, pray, and seek the Lords face - then will the ungodly will
be convicted, having their heart changed - to lead our land in a Godly direction. How about you? Do your pray for your leaders?
Let us learn from our text today to remember that the Kings heart is in the hand of the Lord so we must pray and seek His
face to change the course of a nation.

Wine is a MockerEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter making an application of
our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we continue with the Book
of Proverbs with Chapter 20. In our text today we continue in wisdom with many practical applications from being balanced
to being diligent. What catches my eye is verse 1 which explains the sin of the recreational drinking alcohol. In making application
we see that God gave us alcohol as a medicine as other drugs but those who misuse this item are not wise and are deceived.
Today we are bombarded with beer and alcohol commercials with the world saying it is o.k. to recreationally drink alcohol,
but the Bible is clear on the use of alcohol. Those who want to justify alcohol bring up how Jesus turned water into wine
but it was a "fruit of the vine" or a fresh grape juice not a fermented alcoholic beverage. Today verse gives us
more insight on this deception. How about you? Do you believe that the recreational drinking of alcohol is o.k.? Let us learn
from our text today to shed light on this issue that has many deceived.

of Proverbs with Chapter 18. In our text today we see more wisdom as the Lord lays out many cause and effects of making wise
decisions. Today there is a focus on the foolishness. In making application we see that those who put themselves before the
instruction of the Lord give themselves over to foolishness. How about you? Have you made any foolish decisions in life? Let
us learn from our text today to remember that foolishness comes when we elevate ourselves over the Lord and His Word instead
of placing Him first in all that we do or say.

our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we continue with the Book
of Proverbs with Chapter 17. In our text today we see continuing lesson in wisdom with a focus on the heart of man. How a
merry heart doeth good like a medicine while the Lord trieth the heart like one who refines a precious metal. In making application
we see how God looks on our hearts or the true nature of ourselves. Today we can do the right thing having the wrong motive.
We can claim to be a Christian without truly being saved or possessing Jesus-Christ in our hearts. How about you? How is your
heart with God? Let us learn from our text today to examine our heart to ensure we have been saved and if so, to surrender
our hearts to Him to do His Will in these last days.

will direct our life just as a rudder directs a ship. How about you? Do you see the power of your conversation? Let us learn
from our text today to realize the power of our tongue and then to submit our words as instructed by the Lord.

cause and effect of making decisions. In making application we see that foolishness is rooted in selfishness. When we insist
on our own way verses God's way we generally make foolish decisions. How about you? Is your life yielded to God's way? Let
us learn from our text today to remember that our selfishness leads us to making foolish decisions.

cares how we choose how to live our lives. Today some believe they can live their lives as they choose but what thy fail to
realize is their open and blatant sin hurts and grieves a Holy God. How about you? Did you know your sin grieves God? Let
