One-A-Day: A Daily Dose of Wisdom
This post is part of a series called One-A-Day: A Daily Dose of Wisdom.
*Read Proverbs 20
Questions for Reflection:
- When the Lord judges us, it is for the purpose of winnowing (Prov. 20:8), or removal of evil. Why is this such good news? Consider what happens to gold in the refiner’s fire. (Malachi 3:3)
- What is the purpose of God’s judgement? (Prov. 20:9) Who makes us pure? (1 John 1:9) Why?
- How do you respond when someone corrects you? Is there any condemnation when the Lord is correcting you? (Rom. 8:1)
- A popular saying is that (only) God knows the motives in people’s heart. Consider Prov. 20:27 and 1 Cor. 2:16. Allow the Holy Spirit to search your soul and shed light on your inmost being. Let His loving-kindness bathe you in forgiveness and love. Allow His gentle touch to purify your motives.
- Verse 24 asks a question. Allow the Holy Spirit to answer and jot down your ideas.
