PROVERBS 8:13-14, 17 (2025)

PROVERBS 8:13-14, 17

(Fear of the Lord means hatred of evil.) 
I hate pride and arrogance, 
wicked behaviour and a lying mouth.
To me belong good advice and prudence, 
I am perception: power is mine!
I love those who love me; 
whoever searches eagerly for me finds me.

---- mine,

Fear of the Lord means that you love Me too much to do anything that would grieve My Holy Spirit abiding in you. Fear of the Lord means to know Me, and because of your knowledge of Me, to do all in your power to seek My will in all things and do it. Nothing gives Me greater delight than to have those I love remain in My love. The arrogant, the boastful, the liar, and the deceiver, I abhor. Those who have a lying tongue I detest. Those who are arrogant and boastful have no seat at the table with My friends. Ask and receive a humble and childlike spirit, purity, and innocence of heart. Even though you live among sinners, let not their sins touch you and contaminate you. Let My Light in you shine wherever you are. You are the salt of the earth, let it savor all those who know you. Ask and receive all that you need to live a life of holiness and purity, and hunger and thirst for Me more than food and drink for your physical body. Those who seek me ardently and eagerly will find Me, and I will make My home with those who live to love Me and follow Me no matter where I lead them. Follow Me. Listen to Me and obey, and no matter how difficult the road may be to the Kingdom of God, if you do not depart from it, you will receive a share in it when you reach it.
