Prideful vs. Prudent

Read:  Psalm 111 / Proverbs 27 / Zephaniah 1 / Revelation 15

 

Psalm 111:9,10 ~ Holy and reverend is his name. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that dohis praise endureth forever.

Proverbs 27:11,12 ~ My son, be wise, and make my heart glad... A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Zephaniah 1:12 ~ It shall come to pass at that time, that I will… punish the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their heart, The LORD will not do good, neither will he do evil.

Revelation 15:4 ~ Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

 

The name of Christ our God is holy,

And faithful is His reputation.

His grace is given to the lowly

Who seek the Lord and His salvation. 

 

The prideful settle on their lees

Who have no shame for their behavior.

The prudent man from judgment flees

And finds his refuge in our Savior.
