Proverbs 3.9-10 – In verses 5 and 6 we learned that we are to trust the Lord in everything with all our heart.  In verses 9 and 10 we find the extent of that trust as we are given the command to trust the Lord with wealth by honoring Him in our giving.  It is a heart attitude that expresses gratitude for what God has given to us as we joyfully give back to Him.  By giving Him the first and the best it is both a way to honor Him and a way in which we demonstrate faith that God will continue to provide for us.

Proverbs 3.5-8  An essential component to healthy living and a good exercise program includes developing core strength in your mid section.  An essential component to healthy spiritual living is the theme of Proverbs and the fundamental truth or core that should guide the Christian life.  Without following this principle we will be spiritually weak.  The principle is found in this passage.

Proverbs 3.1-4 – Sometimes life doesn’t seem to fair when we read that if we follow God we’ll live long and prosper.  It is even more difficult to believe when we read in the news about those who live contrary to Biblical principals and seem to have it all and then some.  So what gives?  What did Solomon mean and how can I continue to pursue God?

Proverbs 2.1-22 – When considering a new job we often look for a position with a company that will provide us not just a good salary, we are also concerned about all the other benefits that are available.  We call it Total Compensation.  Wisdom as well has some benefits that are found in this passage.  If we choose to pursue after wisdom these benefits will be ours.  There is deliverance and delight, but for the one who chooses not to follow wisdom, there is doom.
