Bible Verse of the Day | Proverbs 3:11-12 | A verse about the way things work

Welcome to Bible verse of the day I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford coming to you on this November 29 as we continue our long and wonderful track for the book of proverbs today chapter 3 verses 11 and 12 my child do not despise the Lords discipline or be wary of the Lord reproof, for the Lord reproves, the one, the Lord loves, as a father of the son, and whom the Lord delights This is wonderful. This is talking about that we belong to God that Israel is a son to God eventually personified in Jesus as God‘s son, but that extends to us as children as siblings of Christ we are children as well God delights, and you got the lights in us. We are not to despise the Lord discipline there are ways the world works. I call it the flow. You don’t have to like that term but there’s a way things work if you treat people right they treat you right and return not always they’re not perfect but if you live right rightly, mostly you’re gonna be in good relationship with people and when you’re not well, there are consequences when you do things the wrong way when you are selfish when you’re greedy life turns in a way that’s not good for you. It makes seem good at first but it won’t last that’s the way that it works. We’re always looking for God‘s discipline in the way that we experience consequences and the way that we live our relationship so let’s celebrate the way that God loves us by showing us the way or we might call it the flow.

Bible Verse of the Day | Proverbs 3:9-10 | A verse about abundance

Welcome to Bible verse of the day I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford on this November 24 as we relish over Thanksgiving. We’re going to continue with proverbs chapter 3 reading verses, nine and 10 honor the Lord with your substance, and with the first fruits of all your produce, then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine honoring the Lord. What a day to be thankful to God about all that we have in our lives this is speaking to the way that we work and produce, and although most of us aren’t farmers, most of us aren’t working with trees, we do produce we do work we do contribute and we receive things for that work, this understanding of giving everything first to God your first fruits and then having plenty having so much that you’re abundant isn’t some promise that will if you give to God God‘s gonna give you way more back rather if you operate in the mindset in the heart set that everything belongs to God and you live out of gratitude being grateful for what you have so grateful that you’re willing to give up the first and maybe it’s 10% like a tie to God you start to learn that what you have is plentywhen we live not in a consumer way, we start to realize that we already have what we need and that what we have is an abundance and when we start to make that change, we find that that change works through our entire lives

Bible Verse of the Day | Proverbs 3:5-6 | A verse about walking in faith

Welcome to Bible verse of the day I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford coming to you on November 20 as we continue our work through the book of Proverbs today we read from chapter 3 verses five through six trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not rely on your own insight, and all your ways acknowledge the Lord and the Lord will make straight your paths Straight our path refers to not having a hindrance not getting twisted and not getting tripped up. That’s a hard way to live life not hard, obviously easy way to live life but hard to find that way of life because we’re always getting tripped up and even when we think we’re not, even if we think it’s some form of of good church thing to pretend that we don’t get tripped up if we’re really convinced we’re not getting tripped up I think we’re fooling ourselves I don’t think we’re being honest But if we trust and God with all of our heart and not worry about what we think about what’s happening, but try to understand how God may be looking at that that’s a way that we can start to find that straighter path and everything we do if we think about it through God through our gratitude to God through the love and mercy of God we’re gonna find the way that’s going to be more that way that we hope to live this straight path where we’re not getting tripped up the way we learn about the way of God is through the church through each other through having conversation sharing being in relationship, so live your life in the community. Trust God with everything you are.

Bible Verse of the Day | Proverbs 3:3 | A verse about loyalty and faithfulness

Welcome to Bible verse of the day I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford come to you on November 15 as we continue our work or track for the book of Proverbs today we read from chapter 3 verse three do not let loyalty and faithfulness for sake you behind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart These are important, loyalty and faithfulness faithfulness comes from this understanding of trust that we believe we believe so much that our actions follow that belief and loyalty are allegiance is to God alone not anyone not anything else everything we do needs to be founded on the loyalty of God. Trust that what God says things will be. Things are are exactly what they will be in are so much that we actually live accordingly, and to do that we’ve got to remember all the time because we forget there are a lot of voices out there, competing for your loyalty competing for your trust. We must bind the ways of God around our neck right them on our very hearts, because sometimes people will even want your loyalty and faithfulness, and say it’s actually God but it’s not it’s for them it’s for their perspective it’s for their message it’s for their understanding the only way for us to stay true to know is to be reminded to read to stay founded to stay up-to-date to stay, committed to stay loyal and faithful, and all that we do.

Welcome to Bible verse of the day. I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford, and we are continuing in the book of proverbs today we’re gonna turn to chapter 3 and read the first two verses, and they read my child. Do not forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments for length of days and years of life and abundant welfare. They will give you, the word for teaching is literally the word for Torah or instruction and so the voice of wisdom is reminding us that what we need we have that doesn’t mean we follow all those rules today because there are many that we don’t and there are many that we’d say no that’s not for today but the whole idea is understand the teachings that commandments the Bible, and the way that it has moved and it’s headed somewhere if we could trace the movement of the way people are treated in the way those laws came to be we see that there’s a trajectory for where God is leading us until one day we arrive at that place that we find in revelation, 21 and 22 or we find at all things are together all people and it’s healing and we’re somewhere on that track if you wanna find life if you want to find a abundance if you wanna know what satisfaction and peace and goodness are, we’re going to find those and studying our faith learning that trajectory, so let us turn to the teaching and commandments to find life

Bible Verse of the Day | Proverbs 1:22-23 | A verse about knowledge

Welcome to Bible verse of the day I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford coming to you as we work our way through the book of Proverbs today we’re gonna turn to chapter 1 and read verses 22 through verse 23. How long of simple ones were you love being simple, how long will scoffers delight, and their scoffing and fools hate knowledgewisdom is personified and proverbs and we find that person of wisdom asking how long we’re gonna be simple idea of simplicity is that we just take things on the surface without thinking about it and we just make our judgments how often that is the case today you can turn on a different news channel you can talk to different people and they just start talking about information that really they’ve never thought about they’ve never waited or considered other perspectives they’ve never had conversations with people who think differently they just passed along what it is that has been given to them. That’s the opposite of what we’re supposed to do we’re not just regurgitating that which we haven’t even taken time to digest. We aren’t just an echo chamber of other people we’ve been given minds we’ve been given brains and smarts we’ve been given relationships we’ve been given the opportunity to grow, do you hate knowledge you hate learning if so, proverbs says you’re acting foolishly let’s not be simple let’s be people who dig in and think with our God-given brain

Bible Verse of the Day | Proverbs 1:8 | A verse about our home

Welcome to Bible verse of the day. I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford, and we are reading in the book of proverbs a book of wisdom collection of writings to help us on our way. Chapter 1 verse eight here, my child, your father’s instruction and do not reject your mother’s teaching, fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, but where it often starts with us is in our home and maybe you had a father and a mother maybe you had one or the other maybe you had them either but I hope you had people in your life to guide you and while they’re not perfect, they are who we are given they are the ones put in in charge of us to love us to show us the way they’ve messed up and they are still learning To They have a lot to learn but what they have learned has been so helpful for us so it’s good for us to think about fearing God, but also respecting in that same vein, our parents are guardians whoever have helped us along the way if we can get that relationship right show appreciation grow into our love, our grace and our mercy for them Then we show that we are already on the path of wisdom while our parents are guardians are not perfect. Let us not reject them. Let us hear what they have to say as a starting place, and let us join in that conversation as we grow and mature, may those relationships that we began with be the ones that CS through the whole way.

Bible Verse of the Day | Proverbs 1:7 | A verse about the fear of the Lord

Welcome to Bible verse of the day I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford coming to you and we are going to start looking at some proverbs proverbs is a great book of wisdom we’re going to begin with chapter 1 verse seven, and it reads the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, fools despise wisdom and instruction This is a commonly quoted verse. The fear of the Lord. Everyone wants to have the fear of the Lord but what is the fear of the Lord mean? Are we supposed to quake and shiver at the thought of God‘s presence? I don’t think that’s what Jesus had in mind I think what Jesus brought to us was the sense of peace and worthiness that only he could provide not that we’d be afraid of God, but what this is speaking to is similar to if you’ve ever stood in front of the roaring ocean, and seen the mightiness of the waves. You’re not afraid of the waves, but you do respect them you do understand their power, not part of what the proverb is getting is fear of the Lord is where you despise evil where are you Long for good because that is the way of Yahweh, and so it makes sense that the fear of the Lord, the beginning of knowledge and the second part is the fools, despise wisdom and instruction, smart people despise evil but the fools despise wisdom and instruction. Let’s be wise, let’s seek the way of the Lord, and let’s read ourselves of any other desire desire.

⁠⁠Bible Verse of the Day⁠⁠ | Deuteronomy 6:12 & 15 | A verse about Sabbath and worth

https://10bibleverses.com/bible-verse-of-the-day/ Welcome to Bible verse of the day. I am Reverend Joseph Sanford. It is May 5 and we’re continuing on with the retelling of the 10 Commandments Deuteronomy chapter 6 today verses 12 and verse 15 observe the sabbath day and keep it holy as the Lord your God, commanded, you remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there with a mighty hand, and an outstretched arm. Therefore, the Lord your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day. This is the one commandment we are terrible at following. When’s the last time you took a full day every single week and did no work we’re always connected to our work or at home catching up on errands doing anything that we need to do because we have a task list Keeping the sabbath has changed with Jesus and Moses day they have been slaves. Their worth was determined by how many bricks they made they didn’t know how to understand their worth when they weren’t producing so this was a way for them to understand their identities not about what they do what they make what they produce their identity their value their worth is in being human beings God’s children let us remember this truth Message brought to you by Rev.

⁠⁠Bible Verse of the Day⁠⁠ | Deuteronomy 6:11 | A verse about the LORD's name

https://10bibleverses.com/bible-verse-of-the-day/ Welcome to Bible verse of the day I’m Reverend Joseph Sanford coming to you on the third day of May continuing with Deuteronomy chapter 6 the retelling of the 10 Commandments. We’re going to continue with verse 11 you shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord, your God, for the Lord, will not acquit anyone who miss uses the name. We all grew up with an idea of what this commandment was referring to, and frankly what we grew up with, was not correct, was good, not to curse using the name of God, what this means is, we don’t use the name for ourselves or in any other way other than to honor God and so if we think that we’re right about something or what we’re doing as a good and holy thing, we better make sure we know it if we’re going to say that it is God ordained or that God approves it or what we’re doing is in the name or for the love of God People like to use the name of God to further their own well because the name of God brings power it brings authority and if we’re going to assume that we have the right to just decide where God’s authority should be applied we need to be really careful, let us be careful and honorable, with the name of our Lord Message brought to you by Rev.
