2 The Book of Proverbs Chapter 3 Prov 3:7-10 Health And Wealth From the Lord!

3 The Fourth Command – Blessing, Vs. 7-8 Occupation with Christ is blessed by Physical Health!

4 We are to use our volition to say no to the arrogance complex of sins, and yes to Occupation with the Lord Jesus Christ.

5 Rom 12:16b, 21, “Do not be wise in your own estimation.” “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

6 Prov 12:15, “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man is he who listens to counsel.”

7 Prov 14:16, “A wise man is cautious and turns away from evil, but a fool is arrogant and careless.”

8 Prov 16:17, “The highway of the upright is to depart from evil; he who watches his way preserves his life.”

9 Prov 22:3, “The prudent sees the evil and hides himself, but the naive go on, and are punished for it.”

10 Job 28:28, “And to man He said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.’”

11 Being Occupied with Christ has the added blessing of good health.

12 A tranquil life tends to be more healthful. The absence of mental attitude sins protects the human body; Psychosomatics. Cf. Prov 4:20-22; 14:30; 15:30; 17:22; Psa 38:3b

13 Psa 38:3b, “There is no health in my bones because of my sin.”

14 Prov 4:20, “My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings….. 22 For they are life to those who find them and health to all their body.”

15 Prov 14:30, “A tranquil heart is life to the body, but jealousy is rottenness to the bones.”

16 Prov 15:30, “Light for the eyes (Bible Doctrine) gladden the heart; good news (Gospel) puts fat on the bones.”

17 Prov 17:22, “A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.”

18 O. w/ Christ and a right relationship with God leads to a state of complete physical and mental well-being.

19 The Fifth Command – Blessing, Vs. 9-10 Giving unto the Lord is blessed with material blessings.

20 Giving of our “First fruits” is a reminder that the material blessings we have are a gift from God, and now you are honoring Him by offering it back to Him.

21 The mentality we must have when giving our offerings is not giving it to a man, or a church, or a cause, or a program, but, “I am giving to my LORD.”

22 In return, God says He will continually bless you with even more material blessings.

23 Psa 34:10, “The young lions do lack and suffer hunger; but they who seek the LORD shall not be in want of any good thing.”

24 Mal 3:10, “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this,” says the LORD of hosts, “if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.”

25 Giving is an expression of worship to commemorate the grace policy of God.

26 Giving in the Church Age is the legitimate function of the believer’s royal priesthood in worship.

27 Giving is the means of inculcating teamwork and coordination into the body of Christ, Rom 12; 1 Cor 12.

28 Right motivation is the major issue in giving, not the amount given. You give based on Bible doctrine in your soul in honor and glorification of God, period!, Mat 6:1-4.

29 God has provided you with the necessary material blessings to give, and enjoys your right mental attitude when you do give. God loves grace-oriented giving, 2 Cor 9:6-12.
