Proverbs 25

Message
15 Through patience a ruler can be persuaded,
and a gentle tongue can break a bone.

28 Like a city whose walls are broken down
is a man who lacks self-control.

Commands
9 When arguing with your neighbor,
don’t betray another person’s secret.
10 Others may accuse you of gossip,
and you will never regain your good reputation.

Promise
21 If your enemies are hungry, give them food to eat.
If they are thirsty, give them water to drink.
22 You will heap burning coals of shame on their heads,
and the Lord will reward you.

Warning
17 Don’t visit your neighbors too often,
or you will wear out your welcome.

18 Telling lies about others
is as harmful as hitting them with an ax,
wounding them with a sword,
or shooting them with a sharp arrow.

23 As surely as a north wind brings rain,
so a gossiping tongue causes anger!

Application and Prayer
I am very thankful that you hear and answer my prayer. Today is another mirracle. a proof that you answer and talk to your son right away. Thank you God

Jesus I recieve patience, and selfcontrol. Father put all of this in my heart so that I may not sin

      and your plans will succeed.

 4 The Lord has made everything for his own purposes,
      even the wicked for a day of disaster.

Commands
 32 Better to be patient than powerful;
      better to have self-control than to conquer a city.


Promise
20 Those who listen to instruction will prosper;
      those who trust the Lord will be joyful.


Warning
 5 The Lord detests the proud;
      they will surely be punished.

      gossip separates the best of friends.
