GOALS OF  #BLACKLIVESMATTER

1.   Seeks to dismantle the Biblical definition of family....their own words, "we are committed to disrupting the Western prescribed nuclear family (one man + one woman)

2.  Champions the celebration of homosexuality...their own words again "queer affirming".

3.  Touts gender confusion as normal and seeks to make heroes of those who are mentally confused...their own words "we are committed to embracing  and making space for trans brothers and sisters."

INFORMATION comes from Decision Magazine  (July-August 2020)

The concept of black lives matter is undeniable...but the organization Black Lives Matter is evil...Be careful what you embrace.

 Friday, January 22nd--Proverbs 16:16
"How much better is it to get wisdom than gold!..."  How much better is it?  It is immeasurably better!  Please note the exclamation points...probably not inspired but still important!  A truly rich man is a man who has wisdom and understanding.  Understanding is when you obtain knowledge and process it to determine how this information can be used.  Wisdom is when you take what you understand and use it in a way that is pleasing in God's sight.  Wisdom always makes decisions in light of accountability to God.  Thoughts of obedience to God is where wisdom begins. 

Thursday, January 21st–Proverbs 16:10-15
These verses contain a lot of “king stuff”. vs. 10–Reminds us that the king is God’s representative…His words and his judgments should be the same as God would declare. There is a huge responsibility that comes with authority. The king, husband, father, leader is to be obeyed, but he is accountable to God, Himself for his judgments. vs. 11–If things are just and honest, then the leader is giving the right opinion of God. vs. 12– If the king is committed to wickedness then that is the opposite of why the throne was established. vs. 13–A godly king expects the truth and wise counsel from his advisors and followers. vs. 14-15–Good or bad, it is wise to seek the favor of the king.

Saturday, January 16th–Proverbs 16:8-9
“Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right”. The real question is what is the most important or main pursuit of life. What is the determining factor in your decision making process? Is it money, or is it what is pleasing in God’s sight? There is nothing wrong with money, but if it is acquired while compromising what is right…you have the wrong priorities. “A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps.” A man thinks and plans, and does the best that he can to prepare for the future. Ultimately though, it is God who determines how things end up. If a man’s heart is wise, he will make provision for God’s will and plan for his life. A better approach may be…telling God you are willing to follow His plan , rather than asking God for approval of your plan.

Wednesday, December 19th–Proverbs 16:7
“When a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.”
This is an interesting proverb. It seems to conflict with other portions of scripture. We are told that those who live godly will suffer persecution (II Timothy 3:12). This passage tells us that those who live godly, God will assist them in their relationships. Both verses are true…Those who are scorners and unbelievers will aggressively pursue and seek to harm those who choose to live godly. The Devil has an agenda. It is also true that goodness has power to charm and win over even enemies. The Bible says to make sure that when you are under attack that the charges are false…then those that accuse will be ashamed. Let your light so shine before men that they may SEE your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. It is extremely difficult to hate someone who is displaying the love of Christ towards you. The path of life is smoother, if your walking on God’s path.

Tuesday, December 18th–Proverbs 16:6
“By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil”. Let’s start with the truth part. Man must be able to recognize the truth. The truth about what is right and what is wrong. The truth about his sin. The truth about his responsibility to God. A man confesses his sin…confess means to “agree with God”. Once a man acknowledges his sin as sin against God…then God steps in and forgives based on His mercy. If we confess…He is faithful and just to forgive. Once a man then gains an awesome respect for God’s opinion on matters, then he will live in Obedience and depart from evil.

Tuesday, December 10th–Proverbs 16:5
“Everyone that is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished”. We all have a PROUD HEART problem. Pride is one of the six/seven things God hates (Proverbs 6). It was Satan’s problem…it is our problem. The pride talked about here involves not submitting to God’s authority. Many suggest, God loves the sinner and hates the sin…may I suggest…God hates the prideful sinner! It doesn’t matter how many men agree that there is no God, or that God has no authority over their lives…it doesn’t change the fact that there is a God and one day the “proud” will have to give an account to Him.

Wednesday, December 9th--Proverbs 16:4
"The Lord hath made all things for Himself:  yea, even the wicked for the day of evil".
The first thing that comes to mind is that this seems rather selfish.  God is loving, kind, patient, merciful, gracious and benevolent in His dealings with us.  But upon further review, He is our creator, sustainer and the reason we even have life.  We were created for His pleasure.  It is amazing if you think about it...we are so tiny and insignificant in this vast universe, but God has allowed us to give Him pleasure...and has allowed us to often grieve His heart.  God the Father created everything to give to His Son, including us.  Philippians 2 says that "every knee will bow"...that includes the previously "unbelievers".  It is interesting to note that when God pronounces judgment on the world...EVERYONE will believe that He is God...sadly for some, it will be too late.  

Tuesday, December 1st--Proverbs 16:3
“Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established”. When I think of this verse, I think of Psalm 37:4-5… “Delight thyself in the Lord; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord’ trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass.” If it is your desire to do what is pleasing in God’s sight…God will open the doors to allow that to happen. If I want God to approve my plans, I might be disappointed…but if I desire to do His plan and will…then God will give me the desires of my heart. Wanting what He wants; Loving what He loves; Hating what He hates…People suggest that God only gives you what you need…I believe God gives you what you want…once your “wanter” is in line with a desire to please and serve God.

Sunday, November 29th--Proverbs 16:2
"All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the Lord weighs the spirits"...
A couple things stand out in regards to this verse.  First, we have a tendency to think that we are always right.  We believe that we are justified in most causes that we pursue.  We quickly come to the assumption that we are the "good guys" and those opposed are the "bad guys".  We deny any personal wrongdoing.  We rationalize and justify our own behavior.  We act without a guilty conscience because we have convinced ourselves that we are in the right.  HOWEVER, it is important to recognize, although we can fool ourselves, we cannot fool God.  You can fool your conscience, but you can't fool the Holy Spirit.  God not only sees action, He weighs the action based on intent.  It behooves us to be honest with ourselves and be open and listening to the Holy Spirit's instruction.   

Thursday, November 19th--Proverbs 16:1
"The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue is from the Lord".  A number of commentaries seem to think that this verse means that man plans something but God's word is final.  I agree with the overall sediment, but I believe that the writer is giving God credit for both man's ability to think and process information and then share intelligently with others.  God is the one who made our minds and our mouths.  Every time I preach, share or witness, God enables me to process the truth of God's Word and express it in a way that is understandable to others.  If God made our minds and mouths shouldn't they be used to give the right opinion of Him to others?

Sunday, November  15th--Proverbs 15:33
"The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honor is humility."  To "fear the Lord" is the equivalent of obeying God.  Having a reverential fear and respect for God's opinion, is the key to attaining more wisdom.  It is wise to obey God...and the more you obey, the wiser you will become.  According to scripture, typically the way up is down.  If you humble yourself, you will be exalted...if you exalt yourself you will be brought down.  If you humble yourself before God...He will bring you honor.  We need to start at the bottom and work our way up.  

 Saturday, November 14th--Proverbs 15:31-32
"The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise".  Two more verses that speak to the importance of listening to correction and learning from your mistakes.  The "reproof of life"...is godly correction...correction that leads to life.  The intent of the reproof is to help, aid and assist you in your walk for the Lord.  Heeding this correction places you among the wise.  If you refuse godly instruction, it gives the appearance that you couldn't care less about the condition of your soul.  This becomes a matter where you are doing harm to yourself spiritually by failing to listen to godly correction.  Wisdom and understanding is gained by those who humble themselves and see the need for a change.   

Wednesday, October 28th--Proverbs 15:29
"The Lord is far from the wicked:  but he heareth the prayer of the righteous".  James says that if we draw near to God that He will draw near to us...you are as close to God as you chose to be...if you are far from God...it is not God that left you...you left Him...Genesis says that Cain departed from the presence of the Lord.  As believers we are described as sheep,  the smart sheep are close to the Shepherd.  It is much safer there.  Another passage seems to fit here as well, "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me."  Our desire should be to live in obedience and get as close to God as we possibly can.  The closer we are to God, the more clearly we can see what areas of our lives need additional attention.

Tuesday, October 20th--Proverbs 15:28
"The heart of the righteous studieth to answer..."  Think before you speak...think wisely before you speak...again James tells us to be swift to hear; SLOW TO SPEAK and slow to wrath.  Because words are so powerful, we must every time consider the effect it will have on the hearers...A righteous man wants his words to please God and lead men to follow Christ.  If we speak without thought, we are often careless and harmful without intending to be...we jump to a conclusion without waiting for all the knowledge to be considered.  Our words should be deliberately orchestrated to give the right opinion of God.  The foolish and the wicked seem to have no filter as their mouths "pour out" harmful words that injure men's lives and displease God.    

Tuesday, October 13th -- Proverbs 15:27
"He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house."  To some the most important thing is gaining money or earthly wealth...there is nothing wrong with working hard and earning a good wage.  The problem comes when money is the most important thing and it doesn't matter what a person has to do to get it.  Greed and covetousness are two things that get men off the right path.  People who compromise their character or moral beliefs just to attain more money, are headed for trouble.  The excuse is often "I need to provide for my family", when in reality they are creating trouble for their own house.  The person who hates bribery and payoffs and doesn't fall prey to the attitude of getting rich at all costs, is the man who will really enjoy his life.    

Monday, October 12th-- Proverbs 15:26
"The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the Lord"...It makes you wonder, how bad are those thoughts?  I am fairly convinced that 90% of the sins I commit are with my mouth and my thoughts.  Nothing within our heart or mind is hidden from God.  The good part is that like Peter we can say, "thou knowest all things, you know that I love you".  The bad part is that attitudes and thoughts that we may be able to hide from people, cannot escape God's awareness.  It is possible however that our words and thoughts can also be pleasing in God's sight.  "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight Oh Lord my strength and my redeemer"  (Psalm 19:14)

Thursday, October 8th--Proverbs 15:24
"The way of life is above to the wise..."  This world is not my home!  We need to be reminded that if you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior, your citizenship is in Heaven.  We get bogged down with earthly pursuits.  It has been suggested that some people are so "heavenly minded that they are no earthly good".  Frankly, I have never met that person...but I have met a lot of people that are so "earthly minded that they are no heavenly good."  The wise man lives his/her entire life for the moment that he/she will stand face to face with God.  Every single day should be lived to please our Heavenly Father, and with eternity's values in view.

Thursday, October 1st--Proverbs 15:23
"A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth...a word fitly spoken, how good is it!"  Another of many verses and proverbs dealing with our words, mouth, tongue and speech.  This verse implies that not only can we give others encouragement and joy by what proceeds from our lips, we can also give ourselves joy as well.  "It is more blessed to give than to receive";  Possibly this applies to our words as well as our deeds.  When we seek to build others up and encourage them; when we seek to create peace instead of conflict; and when we find that our words are being used by God to accomplish those objectives; great satisfaction and personal joy is received.  Our words not only have the power to affect others lives; our words affect our own lives as well. 

Wednesday, September 30th--Proverbs 15:22
"Without counsel purposes are disappointed; but in the multitude of counsellors they are established"...Every believer, no matter how spiritual you think you are, needs 4 to 5 godly men and women, that they admire spiritually, to provide counsel and advice.  When you have a problem or a questionable activity, you need to be able to ask your small group of advisors what they think...I believe the #1 way God speaks to us is through His Word.  The #2 way God speaks to us is through His people...when the Bible is not specific about a practice or activity...God uses wise, spiritual counsellors to keep us on the right track.  These 4 or 5 should not be just friends or acquaintances, they should be the 4 or 5 most godly people you know.  If we move forward with just our own wisdom, we will make some wrong choices and be disappointed. You may ask why I did not list the Holy Spirit as the #2 way God speaks to us...sometimes its hard to distinguish between the Holy Spirit's prodding and the wishes of our own heart.
