Executing Wisdom on the Earth

Proverbs 24:30-34 I went by the field of the lazy man, and by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding; 31 And there it was, all overgrown with thorns; its surface was covered with nettles; its stone wall was broken down. 32 When I saw it, I considered it well; I looked on it and received instruction: 33 a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest; 34 So shall your poverty come like a prowler, and your need like an armed man.

Observing the sloth there is tragedy in the house! According to this passage, this man has no understanding. His place, that where he resides is all grown up and the surface is covered with nettles. It did have a stone wall but that is broken down. Being asleep to responsibility is allowing things to go without attention!

Do we set purpose toward having a job and showing up on time? DO we seek to caring for that which has been given into our hands? Do we struggle on getting up in the morning but chose to stay up late? Proverbs 6:9-11 How long will you slumber ( lie down), O sluggard? 

When will you rise from your sleep? 10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep----11 So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler, and your need like an armed man.

Showing no effort towards living this life given us, really points to that idle behavior, that has no result of good in it! In relating to the one, who, when the alarm goes off in the morning should one readily reach to shut off the alarm and arise to the day the Lord has made? But I wonder how many struggle with that alarm! I wonder how many just want to stay in bed.

What about shopping for groceries or taking care of paying those bills? The sloth appears when one has no zest to take the trash out to the container for the morning's pickup. Some folks choose to be slack by choosing to leave it at the back door as if that trash bab will some how make its way to the bin on its own!

It is one thing if a person is ill and requires help for that daily living assistance. But if it amounts to being lazy, the slacker, the one who really dislikes the whole "work" thing really places one into a new category. Not taking care of daily issues like sacking trash and purchasing food for meals gives others the idea and notably true that we dislike doing that thing.

When our grand-daughter is here for a visit, we have always liked to watch Zootopia with her. Now this last time that she came for a visit, we never had much time for television and movies. The days she was here proved to be days of sun and fun. And although we missed Flash, the sloth from Zootopia, I still thought of that character. You know his name is Flash and he works at the DMV. Still he is a sloth that shows up for work. Yes, I know this is a animated character from a kids movie, but should we not also consider what people see as humor is not really humor. We are made in the image of God and not the image of a sloth.

Seriously, would you want to look like a sloth?

Proverbs 12:27 The lazy man does not roast what he took in hunting, but diligence is man's precious possession. One who is too lazy to to cook the game he went after is truly lazy!

Proverbs 4:23 Keep your heart with all diligence for out of it spring the issues of life.

Yes, it is the heart of man that tells the world what is going in their thinking. Living in that regard is not really living life that God intended. We each have a 'garden' to care for and whatever it looks like, whether a tent, a model home or palace should still be regarded as to be cared for that which we have been given.

The description given in Proverbs 4: 24-27 gives great detail how our lives should be lived with intent and not as a sloth. Verse 24 : Put away from you a deceitful mouth, and put perverse lips far from you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead. And your eyelids look right before you. 26 Ponder the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established. 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; removed your from evil.

Our mouth and lips convey communication. Our eyes look at what has our attention and the feet walk out our behavior. So if we are hooked on television and how to be the next great singer or dancer, and cannot sing or dance, that tent might be where one will find themselves living. What behavior we execute from our thinking then will determine our outcome!

Proverbs 1:16 For their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood. 17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird; 18 but they lie in wait for their own blood, they lurk secretly for their own lives. 19 So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain; it takes away the life of its owners.

People can easily be ensnared when they project their wants above truth and what is right for life. Those who are considered the wicked are always looking for easy prey. They will look how to take money from unsuspecting women by making them think they have a love interest in them. There are those seeking who they can prey upon who think they can actually have a singing career and be 'talked into making decisions' that are wrong for the unsuspecting prey. They could be talked into doing that which relieves them of their bank account to zero. And the unsuspecting could have their name exploited by those who do not care about the person nor do they mind taking them to the 'cleaners' in doing so.

It is God and His truth that helps you and I to make godly choices. His truth helps us to not make foolish mistakes. You and I must have the counsel of God to reject the counsel of the ungodly. We should hear God's voice above all others when the wicked appear. And today, they appear in all kinds of places : like schools, churches, hospital and rehabilitation units as well as the parks and gyms, lifting weights and cycles that are regarded as spin class!

If our eye just looks on our wants, those fleeting passions of the flesh, we can find a lot of emptiness and everything void of life. Our salvation was meant to save us from destruction. It was the plan of God for us to have a relationship with Him. We are to know Him intimately.  Isaiah 26:1-3…..We have a strong city; God makes salvation its walls and ramparts. 2 Open the gates that the righteous nation may enter, the nation that keeps faith. 3 You will keep him in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. NIV

 And our God is not passive in His love for us but is actively looking for opportunities to do us good, assuring us in II Chronicles 16:9, "For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him." Not only is it God's will to be a present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1), this verse in II Chronicles also reveals that He takes it much further. God is with great effort, illustrated by running to and fro, actively looking for opportunities to help us.

But if we are too lazy to look into His perfect law of liberty, if we are too intent on being the singer and spend time with watching singers on television or even you-tube, we might certainly miss that which God is willing to show us out of His great love for us. 

For truly, God's word exposes that truth but it is only our trust in Him that sees that word executed in our lives. If we live as a sloth, then everything will go to ruin, to weed and to the point of us having no protection. With the wall torn down, one is put in danger of predators coming to take over not only what you have but live in that which you never fought for. For being idle is truly a sad state to be in.

Proverbs 5:1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom; lend your ear to my understanding 2 that you may preserve discretion, and your lips may keep knowledge. When we bow before God and His wisdom...that is...we pay attention, we set our heart on what He gives as truth to us. As we listen to Him, we will not stray from His wise instruction. Without God, we come to death, poverty, condemnation, and disgrace.

Living diligently is living with purpose, is living with lips that keep God's knowledge, that sound like the wisdom of God  and behaves in His wisdom that we execute His wisdom on the earth. Amen.

Itching Ears

2 Timothy 4: 2-5 NKJV Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all long-suffering and teaching. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. 5 But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
Yes, this letter was written to Timothy ...the up and coming leader in a specific church body. He was to endure sound doctrine and he was taught by his mother and grandmother. We read about them in 2 Timothy 1:5....when I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in the your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also.
Apostle Paul is guiding the young preacher to be ready for those with itching ears will appear. They would be people who turn aside to fables. ( I heard recently that ministries are using Tarot cards with God's word...what?)
That is so wrong in so many ways....especially when we are told not to go after the flesh in Deuteronomy 18.
Deuteronomy 18: 9-14 NKJV When you come into the land which the LORD your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominations of those nations. 10 there shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire or the one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens or a sorcerer, 11 or one who conjures spells, or a medium or a spiritist or one who calls up the dead. 12 For all who do these things are an abomination to the LORD and because of these abominations the LORD your God drives them out from before you. 13 You shall be blameless before the LORD your God. 14 For these nations which you will dispossess listened to soothsayers and diviners; but as for you, the LORD your God has not appointed such for you.
AS He appointed truth to us, then we are to obey Him.


There is a group of people who do not want the youth to know of the godly heritage that began this nation. There is group set on changing this nation to look like every other nation. BUT what makes America stand out is its beginning  in God! And even the first McGuffy readers were put into the school systems so that Scripture would be available to put into the hands and eyes of the budding new leaders of the future. But alas that changed as the 20th century rolled around. Men loved themselves more than God and took off into the crooked ways of greed and changing what was originally set in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. In the 20th century, technology soared as did those things mentioned in Deuteronomy 18 that we were not to do!
Like putting your children through the fire....that was Molech and it is a spirit today where abortions are desired greatly. The spirit of divination is satanic  that involves enchanters, wizards, witches and witchcraft. Magicians, astrologers, nor false prophets are to be followed.

I do not do much on the 'Twitter' thing. I found that what I consider truth (heeding and speaking God's truth) is not what someone else considers truth. And then when I put something on there, I find a load of 'stuff' I really should not hear or read and language that no one should speak or write out for all to see!

The word of God tells us to preach the word of God boldly. That means we can also give truth to our neighbors and those we work with whether at work or even when volunteering for a detail within the community.
We must be able to recognize truth and stay out of fable alley and deceit communication center found on Crooked Street in Negative City. The only way to recognize truth is to read truth from the Bible that God provided for us. In finding truth within the pages of the Bible we find a life to pursue that is one of holiness, enriched with spiritual wisdom, where we can daily be infused with spiritual discernment and gain a very wise value system for living.

In this culture, you can see what most people value and how much they are willing to give for that which they desire greatly! They sacrifice the lives of children for their own 'rights' but betray that for which they were created. Men today are seen as only in the way, but God placed them to be leaders as the spiritual man who is led by God to lead the spouse (his wife) and his children by a rich heritage of knowing the Father who created people and desired the relationship with those who would be His spiritual children...the sons of God!


What we communicate is to be with truth and accuracy and to train others to do the same. But do we do that? Do we train our children to operate in truth or "white killer lies" that can cause a whole box of problems much later down the road to Crookedville township ending up in Trouble City in the state of decomposing attitude!
Proverbs 19:5 A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who speaks lies will not escape.

Yes, that means the one who lies will be found out that they lied! Knowing this verse is true according to God. Do we also remember Matthew 12:36-37 But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you will be justified and by your words you will be condemned.


In receiving Jesus, we are justified. We live by the Holy Spirit Who was given to us as our Comforter. He is here to guide us and teach us that which was given by Jesus while He walked on earth. And it is how we react to the Holy Spirit that we are either justified or condemned. We should not be led by the flesh creature but by the Holy Spirit of God to do that purpose God set forth for us to do. You have an assignment as well as I have an assignment. Life is more than just waking and doing. Life is the true and is relationship with God our Father. It is a conversation daily with prayer indeed to find the freedom that came through Jesus Christ.


1 John 2:21-23 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is anti-christ who denies the Father and the Son. 23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

For without God and that relationship we can find life to be but a blur! That 'itching ears' person is looking for that which will give them a platform for their own idea of position in their family, community and maybe within the vastness of the world. But there is no song, no idea, no new thing as great as our God. There is no man or thing greater than our God.There is no wisdom or understanding or counsel  against the LORD. (Proverbs 21:30)  We are to Listen to counsel and receive instruction so that we be wise in our latter days. ( Proverbs 19:20)
We know that having 'itching ears' is seeking that which feeds the lust of those who seek that lust!  John 3:19-21 And this is the condemnation that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, because their deeds were evil. 21 But he Who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen that they have been done in God.

Jesus was Light and will always be Light. He did the will of Father that was done in deeds clearly seen. It was God given to Jesus to declare and to do for the glory of God.
Jeremiah 17:5-10   NKJV

5 This is what the LORD says:

"Cursed is the man who trusts in man, And makes flesh his strength

Whose heart departs from the LORD.

6 He will be like a shrub in the desert (wastelands); and shall not see when good (prosperity) comes.

But shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness (desert), in a salt land which is not inhabited.

7 "Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose hope ( confidence ) is the LORD.

8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters which spreads out its roots by the river.

And will not fear when heat comes and its leaf will be green.

And will not be anxious in a year of drought  nor will cease from yielding fruit."

9 The heart is deceitful above all things  and desperately wicked.

Who can know (understand) it?

10 I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind (secret parts) Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.

A tree will never fear, but a man will. And when heat comes, and it certainly will come, we are to be planted by the river of living waters where our roots go deep into God. We must go deep into His wisdom and hear the Holy Spirit direct us.

Yes, the heart is central to man. It is the inner self that which thinks, feels, and acts. Proverbs 4:23-27 NKJV  Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life. 24 Put away from you a deceitful mouth and put perverse lips far from you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead, and your eyelids look right before you. 26 Ponder the path of your feet and let all your ways be established. 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; remover your foot from evil.

For you and I: our mouth, lips, eyes and feet are physical symbols for that of communication, is it for attention and behavior. An open rebellion to God is seen in those who resist God and His standard. They will not marry but live outside that God commanded. They will have children outside that institution of marriage and call it their 'right'. Or if the child does not fit...they abort and call it their 'right'. They will try to change their gender because they believe God made a mistake. But God never makes mistakes. He is right, He is righteous and holy........is everlasting!

The heart that is right will follow what God placed for our protection. For His word leads us down the street called Straight.
Psalm 125:4-5 Do good, O LORD to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts. 5 As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD shall lead them away with the workers of iniquity.
Luke 43: 4b-6 NKJV Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight. 5 Every valley shall be filled and every mountain and hill brought low; The crooked places shall be made straight and the rough ways smooth; 6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.


In thinking about today, many children have been raised without a father to lead and in some cases the mother was absent as well, only to be raised by a grandmother or the 'state'. The difference is to be in leadership that God commanded from the beginning. Outside of that we live by the flesh creature, have itching ears, seeking platforms to make our name great when our true assignment is to shine the light of what God planned for a 'family', what is relationship with God almighty and live under the protection of the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Without this.......we live like crooked people, in crooked houses with crooked ways and die that way.
Father....thank YOU for loving us first! (1 John 4:19)
