Read Proverbs 1
The verse that spoke to me:
"Their purpose is to teach people to live disciplined and successful lives, to help them do what is right, just, and fair." (Proverbs 1:3 NLT)
My takeaway:
I must remain teachable. There's so much to learn. Additionally, I must remember the importance of living a disciplined life by doing what is just, right, and fair. I want to grow spiritually so I can represent my Abba Father well, bringing His Kingdom to earth!
Disciplined - instructed; educated; subjected to rules and regulations; corrected; chastised; punished; admonished. (Noah Webster 1828 Dictionary)
FAITH CONFESSION:
Lord, let me become disciplined to live in Your Word so Your kingdom can come on earth, as it is in heaven, through my interactions with You.

My favorite verse in proverbs 1 is also verse 33. I read this chapter in several translations and I liked TPT (The Passion Translation). But the one who always listens to me will live
undisturbed in a heavenly peace free from fear, confident and courageous. That one will rest unafraid and sheltered from the storms of life.
Amen on what's been shared! I can already sense its all joining here will have an abundance of Spirited growth and blessings spring forth..
Vs 33 stood out to me
If you listen to me, you'll be safe and secure without fear of disaster.
- We should always run to the Word of God. It helps us to handle any and all situations as God would have us to do. We can trust in it wholeheartedly... That's our security our anchor.. To keep us aligned with God's principles. When we do what it says, we avoid becoming/being foolish or falling into traps of the enemy.
Proverbs 1:28
"Then they will call to me but I will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me."
My Takeaway:
Because I rejected the knowledge that was being given to me He will not respond when I call nor will I be able to find Him when I look. He is teaching me that His Word is where I need to be if I want to grow.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: But fools despise wisdom and instruction. Proverbs 1:7 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/pro.1.7.KJ If I fear the LORD, I am better able to listen and obey. As I obey, I am able to receive a quickening in my spirit, waking up all God placed inside of me, wisdom, kindness, self-control...
