31 Day Challenge - Day 6

Just reading the book of Proverbs shows us many of the promises God has for us. When we consider some of the things that bother us, we can look in the book of Proverbs and find a promise that covers that fear. We don't always read God's word like that, but we can.

Let's start with how God lays out chapter 6 for us. He begins by giving us little lessons in wisdom. He's actually tells us what to and not to do and even if we don't fully understand it, we can't help but be blessed if we follow the commands and directions.  He gives us life lessons through parables and illustrations. We can visualize what He's saying and if we take it all in, we reap the blessings of the promise. For instance, if we want to be lead on the right path, or sleep protected, or have REAL life or be kept from corruption, then we need to obey our father's commands and follow our mother's instruction. We must keep their words in our hearts and then we'll have direction for our lives. These are promises from our Father, the IF, THEN's. If we do this, then we get this!  Our Father ends the chapter by stating what will happen if when we don't follow our parents commands and directions. It's also the IF, THEN. We really do reap what we sew.
