Preview On Proverbs
Whilst Bible is arranged by genre,
we are meditating chronologically:
Genesis on God’s Plan for creation;
JOB on Sovereignty of God; and
Exodus, Leviticus, Num-Deut on
Deliverance, Holiness & Obedience.
Then Joshua on Obedient Faith,
Judges on God Restoring Repentant;
Ruth on Faithfulness/Redemption;
1 Sam on Rule of God in our heart;
2 Sam on Consequences of sin;
1 Chronicles on Genuine Worship;
Psalms on Hymns of Worship, and
1Kgs on United & Divided Kingdom.
Continuing, the book of Proverbs
– the Bible’s primer of practical
wisdom, teaches the application
of truth to everyday life. Contained
in this collection of poetry, parables,
and wise maxims are instructions
regarding how to relate to parents
and children, God and government,
sin and self. Solomon the principal
author gives his readers a “divine
handle” on living to please God.
