July 25, 2021: Words to Live By
Scripture: Proverbs 21:20-23
Sermon Excerpts:
We’ve all heard that knowledge is power.
Knowledge is knowing, but wisdom is using that knowledge to make sound judgments.
After you set aside your gift to God, learn to make saving your greatest priority.
Saving prepares the wise for the future.
Solomon says that living righteously can give you another type of wealth.
Righteousness is its own treasure.
It’s easy to live any old way.
Righteousness and mercy don’t come easy. Solomon says you must PURSUE them.
A word to the wise is sufficient if you heed it, and not just hear it.
