PVB 15, Want to Get Understanding?

Proverbs 15
Some of the proverbs today are black and white truth. I’m only adding the proverbs I had something to comment on.
2The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness. (Life or death are always in our mouth, and when we sincerely want to do God’s will in peoples lives and we look to Him rather than pleasing or fearing man, He helps us. This may be unpleasant for a time, but in the end, you have peoples respect.
4A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit. (If we are either creating breaches in the Spirit, or listening to someone else do it, we must look to Jesus, be like Jesus. He usually got involved when this happened.) He loved people enough to get involved.
5A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. (This is an either or scripture.) You have what fools do on one side and what the prudent do on the other side and you get to choose which side you want to play on. We didn’t always pick teams when we were little but we do when we grow up.
6In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.
7The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so. THIS IS RIGHT OUT THERE TOO…… you really can know a man by what he disperses! A woman too!
8The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight. (This, the bible is the Lords love letter to us. He wants us to respond to His letter to us!) He’s talking to us and He wants us to talk back.
9The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.
10Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die. (Wake up to the kingdom of God inside you. Help your children wake up. If you don’t learn how to read your own spirit and learn to listen and obey, how will you teach your children and others not to ignore the kingdom of God inside them?)
11Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?
12A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise. (This is about being open….. learning to read our own spiritual mail. Again, (Wake up to the kingdom of God inside you. Help your children wake up. If you don’t learn how to read your own spirit and learn to listen and obey, how will you teach your children and others not to ignore the kingdom of God inside them?)
14The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness. (This is how most people grow up, feeding on foolishness, self pity, fear, unbelief.) NOT SEEKING KNOWLEDGE. Again, God’s government is inside us and if we don’t go there, we can’t help others.
15All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast. (They are feasting on Gods will, doing God’s will, living on His food. This is called being awake in your conscience, and not grieving, denying and resisting the HOLY Ghost!)
19The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain. (Who wants to be a hedge of thorns?) There really are people who don’t care if they are slothful and make everyone feel a sense of danger when they are around them. What a sad way to live and die, being a hedge of thorns to people, due to your own slothfulness. Maybe folly is their joy.
21Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly.
22Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. (We aren’t made to walk through life alone, and many sorrows will be to those who do.)
23A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it! WOW……… WANT TO HAVE JOY??????????? Get some life from Jesus, and feed people that……….. it’s the joy solution!!!
26The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words. (Heard a guy say on tv last night, DON’T TALK TO SNAKES).
27He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. (This is the sorrow of those who live to please themselves, they create trouble wherever they go)
28The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things. (hearing the message yet… this is God, speaking to you and me.)
29The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
30The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat.
31The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. (You want to go to heaven, and dwell in eternity with the wise people of the ages? Has everything to do with loving reproof.) That’s the main theme of this whole proverb!!!!!!!! And you can see the people who do love it and watch how they relate to others.
32He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding.
33The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.
