Discretion

Proverbs 3:21

Living in Wisdom and Discretion #

Pro 3:21-26

Intro.

This passage clearly describes the benefits that we reap in life from keeping sound wisdom and discretion! We have to define terms, so we are all on the same page, and understand what we are talking about before we can see the benefits.

Terms:

Sound Wisdom - I want us to notice this is a specific form of wisdom, and not relegated to just wisdom. This is a specific form of wisdom, it is sound wisdom. (Pro 2:6-7)

Proverbs 9:1

Wisdom, Your Choice #

Proverbs 9

Intro.

In Chapter 8 and 9 we can see the total Praise of Wisdom.

This chapter shows a real contrast between right and wrong at work! We can see God’s invitation to man, as well as Satan’s invitation to man. Man is in the middle, and being called both ways! Clearly it is a picture of life, and the choice, and decision made in life.

Which path will you choose? #

Prov. 18:12 ¶ Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.

I. Path to destruction or honor (Pro 18:12) #

  • There are two very distinct pathways laid out before us in this verse.

  • The one path, is a well worn path, it looks like the most successful of people have traveled that path before… it looks like it is the path to success if you look at it.

Proverbs 19 - Anger

Anger #

Proverbs 19:19

Introduction

We need to be careful that we do not paint anger or wrath as a bad thing. Anger is an emotion that is felt.

Eph. 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: 27 Neither give place to the devil.

God is holy, and without sin. Yet, he has wrath, and anger.

I. Anger without Discretion (Pro 19:19) #

Prov. 19:19 ¶ A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if thou deliver him, yet thou must do it again.
