John RossHOST
We are reading Isaiah chapters 55 through 58 and Proverbs 1 here on Commuter Bible OT.
John RossHOST
[upbeat music] The Lord invites Israel into His presence, and in our opening verses, this is depicted symbolically with a lavish feast provided free of charge by God Almighty Himself.
John RossHOST
This happens when the wicked one abandons his way and the sinful one his thoughts, returning to the Lord who has compassion.
Ray ComfortHOST
People disappearing, the trains coming.
Emeal ZwayneHOST
I'll tell you guys one of the proverbs that hits me most.
Emeal ZwayneHOST
I read through the Psalms and Proverbs every month, so this gives the Holy Spirit to hit me with this personally.
Emeal ZwayneHOST
Because again, and Oscar, you touch on this a lot in terms of how when we hear sermons or we come across something that's heavy, we're always thinking about how it applies to other people.
Emeal ZwayneHOST
And we fail to pause to say, yeah, because we look at the big thing.
Emeal ZwayneHOST
Don't ever underestimate the severity of sin in the heart.
Emeal ZwayneHOST
Thank God we're under grace, right? And we know our sins have been paid for as believers.
Emeal ZwayneHOST
But in the decisions that we make, so Proverbs 1, Proverbs 1, beginning of verse 20, wisdom calls aloud outside.
Mike HarrisHOST
Hmm.
Taylor HalversonHOST
And so just for fun, if you actually quickly read through Proverbs 1 through 9 and highlight 10 or 15 key themes or key, key ideas, and then go read all of 1 Nephi, you'll see those themes everywhere.
Taylor HalversonHOST
It's quite powerful.
Taylor HalversonHOST
And Nephi is the wise man.
13 MINS LATER
Taylor HalversonHOST
It just suggests that Nephi truly did come out of this ancient biblical environment where they would have had this, this sense.
Taylor HalversonHOST
All right.
Taylor HalversonHOST
So for the reading for today, there's also Proverbs 4, uh, Proverbs 15 and 16, Proverbs 22, and you'll get lots of nourishment as you read these.
Taylor HalversonHOST
Again, look for the themes of how are people being invited to fear the Lord, which means to be covenantally relational to him, to be reverentially awe, uh, to him.
Grace LubegaHOST
And maybe this might be the sixth or seventh thing that you might do or learn that will align things in your life.
Grace LubegaHOST
Do you understand what I'm saying? So, but also in this conversation, we seek to give some balance because without explaining this from the heart of God, it can be grossly misused or interpreted, and we abuse such a beautiful pattern or principle that God gave us through scripture.
Grace LubegaHOST
And the Bible says, "All scripture is profitable for you." All scripture.
Grace LubegaHOST
There's no part of this book that is not important to you.
Grace LubegaHOST
We have a generation that thinks, oh, the New Testament is more important than the Old.
12 MINS LATER
Grace LubegaHOST
And so it is wasted because it has not served its purpose.
Grace LubegaHOST
It means that every time God brings wisdom next to you, greatness next to you, the anointed next to you, He's giving you an opportunity to save something for your future, something that speaks into a time when you will need it.
Grace LubegaHOST
When the Bible says that wisdom is on the streets, have you ever read that portion of scripture? Wisdom cries out on the streets.
Rick WarrenHOST
Look up here on the screen.
Rick WarrenHOST
Proverbs 18, 24 says this.
Rick WarrenHOST
These are friends who destroy each other.
Rick WarrenHOST
Have you ever seen a couple friends destroy each other? Yeah.
Lindsay HansenHOST
Today we're gonna continue in this week's Come Follow Me block in the book of Proverbs.
Lindsay HansenHOST
Now remember I said at the beginning of the week we were gonna study this book more by topic rather than chronologically, so it's not like we're gonna start in Proverbs 1 and go through it.
Lindsay HansenHOST
We're jumping around quite a bit.
Lindsay HansenHOST
So hopefully you're okay with that.
Bryce DunfordHOST
Yeah.
Mike DayHOST
Look at Proverbs 1:31.
Mike DayHOST
To those that reject the tree, "Therefore they shall eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices." But then verse 33 says, "But whoever hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely and shall be quiet from fear of evil." In other words, they'll be fed by the tree.
Bryce DunfordHOST
That's big-picture book of Proverbs.
14 MINS LATER
Mike DayHOST
Another idea.
Mike DayHOST
The wisdom tradition advocates learning and education.
Mike DayHOST
Proverbs 1:2, "To know wisdom and instruction, to perceive the words of understanding." And then we read Proverbs 1 through 7.
Mike DayHOST
But then Nephi says that he makes his record, quote, "according to his knowledge." How many times does Nephi talk about it being wisdom in God that he should obtain the records and preserve them for the language? Why? So that their children know the manner by which redemption comes.
Jared HalversonHOST
It hurts those that need to be rebuked.
Jared HalversonHOST
Uh, so we need to be careful with what we say to people and how we say it.
Jared HalversonHOST
Proverbs 13, following the same pattern, 22 out of 25 are this is good, but that is bad.
Jared HalversonHOST
Verse seven: "There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing." And on the other hand, "There is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches." Similar to the proverb we already saw.
Jared HalversonHOST
But it reminds me of a conversation I had with my kids.
11 MINS LATER
Jared HalversonHOST
And our greatness, any nation, not just America, greatness depends on goodness, and so righteousness exalts a nation.
Jared HalversonHOST
I hope it's exalting ours or wherever you live.
Jared HalversonHOST
Proverbs 15 has 33 verses.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
Hey, it's Callie Black here with Today's Thought.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
Let's open up to Proverbs 1, verse 22.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
As a teenager, I remember my very kind bishop asking me at the end of an interview, "'So, Callie, what are you working on to try to improve in your life right now spiritually?' And I thought about all the good things I was already doing.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
I was reading the scriptures each day.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
I was doing everything I was supposed to do.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
So I believed that I had nothing to improve.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
Now, this makes me think of the wise question posed in Proverbs 1, verse 22.
Kristen Walkersmith and Callie BlackHOST
How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? Now, the gospel of Jesus Christ really is simple, but we're talking about something different here.
KnoufHOST
And God desires for us to stay away from some things.
KnoufHOST
We think about the great wisdom that he had there in Proverbs.
KnoufHOST
Proverbs 19.23 says, The fear of the Lord tendeth to life, and he that hath it shall abide satisfied.
KnoufHOST
He shall not be visited with evil.
KnoufHOST
Guess what? Solomon, who wrote this, he didn't abide satisfied.
