Proverbs

We have all made bad decisions. These decisions often have consequences that not only affect us but those around us. Fortunately, one of the great privileges of being a Christian is that God's spirit will lead us. Sadly, too many choose to neglect God's guidance in "all things" and end up leaning on their own understanding. God's cure for bad decisions is His spirit & wisdom!

According to Proverbs 16:18, "Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall." The true follower of Christ knows where their strength comes from, yet each of us are tempted to revert back to old sources of strength. In Christ alone our hope is found!!!

In the face of coming storms there is no time for casual christianity. God desires to take each of us into a deeper relationship with Him where His heart is formed in us. We bind the works of the enemy by simply walking in obedience to God's Word.

Pastor has laid out for us, a vision, and what we should look for in the coming year. In Proverbs 29:18, the Word notes that when we turn away from divine guidance and do not accept it - we do foolish things. God uses the prophet, Habakkuk, to ask questions about the same economic struggles and worries that we have today. The answer found in Habakkuk 2:4, still stands true, "...the just shall live by his faith." We don't know the WHY for the things happening, but we know the WHO to go to for strength, and that is Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour.
