In today's Morning Manna, we explored Proverbs 10:17-18, where Solomon contrasts those who embrace correction with those who reject reproof and hide hatred behind deceitful speech. True wisdom leads us on the path of life, but a stubborn refusal to learn results in wandering and destruction. We also uncover how concealed bitterness and slander corrode the heart, relationships, and testimony of the believer. This teaching calls us to humility, integrity, and a guarded tongue.Teachers: Rick Wiles and Doc BurkhartYou can partner with us by visiting FaithandValues.com, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!

Atheism says there's no God, but functional atheism says there's no God right here right now. Pastor Jonathan Fitzgerald continues our summer series with a sermon from Psalm 14.

In today's Morning Manna, we explore Proverbs 10:13-16 and uncover the contrast between wisdom and folly, preparation and destruction, righteousness and sin. Solomon teaches that the wise store up knowledge and guard their lips, while the foolish invite ruin with careless words. We also examine how true security is not found in riches but in walking in God's ways, where righteous labor produces life and eternal reward. Join us as we dig into God's Word and discover how wisdom builds while foolishness destroys.  Teachers:  Rick Wiles and Doc BurkhartYou can partner with us by visiting FaithandValues.com, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!

Today's Morning Manna takes us back to the days of Noah, when the world was filled with corruption, yet one man found grace in the eyes of the Lord. From Genesis 6:1–8 and Hebrews 11:7, we learn a powerful lesson in faith — a faith that believes God's warning, obeys His command, and perseveres despite ridicule. Noah built the ark not because it made sense to the world, but because he trusted the Word of God. His obedience preserved his household, and his example still speaks to us today. In this episode, we explore what it means to walk with God in a faith that looks beyond the present, preparing for things not yet seen, and trusting that God's grace is enough to carry us through.Teachers: Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart.You can partner with us by visiting FaithandValues.com, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!

Will disciplining children for tantrums and outbursts damage their willingness to share feelings and communicate openly? Discover four biblical principles that show how proper discipline actually strengthens rather than harms parent-child relationships.TIMESTAMPS0:00 - Introduction: The Heart of a Torn Parent1:09 - The Core Question About Discipline and Relationship1:33 - Principle 1: Spankings Are Not the Only Thing We Do2:57 - Principle 2: Spankings Are for Sin, Not Feelings3:31 - Clarifying What We Punish vs. What We Discuss4:21 - Teaching Children to Identify Their Sin5:15 - Principle 3: Discipline Is Parental Obedience to God5:39 - Proverbs 13:24 - Love Disciplines Diligently6:31 - Building Character Through Parental Integrity6:57 - Principle 4: Spanking Is Not the Last Step7:45 - The Lambert House Rule: Don't Leave Angry8:22 - Ending Discipline with Prayer, Grace, and Restoration8:44 - When Discipline Goes Wrong vs. RightMAIN POINTS- Spankings Are Not the Only Thing We DoPhysical correction should be a very small percentage of overall parenting time. Parents who discipline have earned that right through much larger investments of positive relationship building. - Discipline is placed within a broader context of love and care throughout daily life.- Spankings Are for Sin, Not Feelings or PreferencesChildren should never be punished for having feelings, needing to talk, or making mistakes. - Discipline is specifically for sin - violations of God's law. Parents must clearly communicate the difference between emotions that need discussion and sinful behaviors that require correction.- Discipline Is Parental Obedience That Models IntegrityFollowing Proverbs 13:24, parents demonstrate love through diligent discipline. This shows children that parents have integrity and follow God's commands, building rather than undermining confidence in the parent-child relationship over a lifetime.- Discipline Should End with Restoration, Not AngerThe Lambert house rule was to never leave discipline sessions angry. After confession, forgiveness, and correction, the process should end with prayer, grace, and often laughter and affection. The goal is restoring the relationship broken by sin through faithfulness to God's Word.SCRIPTURE REFERENCESPrimary Passages:Proverbs 13:24 - Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline himSupporting Context:Proverbs 22:15 - Folly is bound up in the heart of a childProverbs 23:13-14 - Do not withhold discipline from a childHebrews 12:5-11 - God disciplines those he lovesEphesians 6:1-4 - Children obey parents; fathers don't provoke to angerDeuteronomy 6:6-7 - Teaching children diligentlyColossians 3:21 - Fathers, do not embitter your childrenHave a question you'd like answered?

"""How the wise dies just like the fool!”In this sobering passage, Solomon considers whether wisdom—so highly prized by the world—can provide lasting meaning in life. He concedes that wisdom is better than folly, just as light is better than darkness. Yet both the wise and the foolish face the same end: death. Both are forgotten in time. So what lasting advantage is there to even the best-ordered life lived “under the sun”?This message explores Solomon's reflections on the futility of human wisdom when divorced from the fear of the Lord. Drawing connections with Genesis 3 and the effects of the Fall, we see that all human striving—whether in pleasure or prudence—is subject to the curse of vanity.But there is a wisdom that transcends this world: the wisdom that begins with the fear of God and finds its fulfillment in Christ. He is the Wisdom of God, the One who gives eternal life to all who trust in Him.Sermon Text: Ecclesiastes 2:12–17Theme: Worldly wisdom cannot escape the vanity of death.Key Verse: “What happens to the fool will happen to me also. Why then have I been so very wise?” (Ecclesiastes 2:15)

Proverbs 24:3-12

In today's Morning Manna, we explore the stark contrast Solomon draws between the diligent and the lazy. Proverbs 10:4–5 reveals that our daily choices carry consequences—not just materially, but spiritually. Laziness brings shame, while diligence brings promotion and purpose. Join us as we unpack how wise labor honors God and sets a course for lasting fruitfulness.

Each verse draws a sharp contrast between righteousness and wickedness, diligence and laziness, wisdom and foolishness. These practical principles not only shape character, but also reveal the consequences of our daily decisions.

Former NSC official Lt. Col. (Ret.) Alexander Vindman joins The Burn Bag to break down the fallout from the Trump–Putin summit in Alaska, the Monday meeting between Trump, Zelenskyy, and European leaders at the White House, and the dangerous trajectory of U.S. diplomacy on Ukraine. A former NSC Director for European Affairs and key Trump impeachment witness, Lt. Col. Vindman argues that Trump's ad hoc engagement with Putin diminished U.S. credibility, granted Putin international legitimacy, and undermined Ukraine's sovereignty. He discusses Putin's proposed land-for-peace deal, Zelenskyy's constrained agency, and the risk that Washington's approach trades away strategic leverage for short-term optics. Lt. Col. Vindman and A'ndre discuss discuss whether Monday's White House Summit of Trump, Zelenskyy, and European allies actually showcased unity, in addition to the current state of the war. The former NSC official offers a candid assessment of what's at stake—for Ukraine, for Europe, and for American credibility on the global stage.Read Lt. Col. Vindman's new book, The Folly of Realism, here.

In today's Morning Manna, we examined the deadly appeal of foolishness masquerading as wisdom. The foolish woman extends her invitation to the simple, luring them with promises of secret pleasures and stolen delights. But what looks sweet soon turns bitter—her house is filled with the dead, and her path leads straight to hell. This sobering passage reminds us that every invitation must be weighed not by how it feels, but by where it leads.

In today's Morning Manna, we examine how Solomon reveals the true character of foolishness—not quiet ignorance, but loud, seductive ignorance. The foolish woman is portrayed as clamorous and confidently deceitful, setting herself in a public place to ensnare those who are walking in the right way. Her aim is to divert the upright with noise, boldness, and imitation of wisdom. This passage is a warning: the enemy often disguises danger with volume, visibility, and false appeal.  Teachers:  Rick Wiles and Doc BurkhartYou can partner with us by visiting FaithandValues.com, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!

Isaiah 44:1–17 (Listen) Israel the Lord's Chosen 44:1   “But now hear, O Jacob my servant,    Israel whom I have chosen!2   Thus says the LORD who made you,    who formed you from the womb and will help you:  Fear not, O Jacob my servant,    Jeshurun whom I have chosen.3   For I will pour water on the thirsty land,    and streams on the dry ground;  I will pour my Spirit upon your offspring,    and my blessing on your descendants.4   They shall spring up among the grass    like willows by flowing streams.5   This one will say, ‘I am the LORD's,'    another will call on the name of Jacob,  and another will write on his hand, ‘The LORD's,'    and name himself by the name of Israel.” Besides Me There Is No God 6   Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel    and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts:  “I am the first and I am the last;    besides me there is no god.7   Who is like me? Let him proclaim it.1    Let him declare and set it before me,  since I appointed an ancient people.    Let them declare what is to come, and what will happen.8   Fear not, nor be afraid;    have I not told you from of old and declared it?    And you are my witnesses!  Is there a God besides me?    There is no Rock; I know not any.” The Folly of Idolatry 9 All who fashion idols are nothing, and the things they delight in do not profit. Their witnesses neither see nor know, that they may be put to shame. 10 Who fashions a god or casts an idol that is profitable for nothing? 11 Behold, all his companions shall be put to shame, and the craftsmen are only human. Let them all assemble, let them stand forth. They shall be terrified; they shall be put to shame together. 12 The ironsmith takes a cutting tool and works it over the coals. He fashions it with hammers and works it with his strong arm. He becomes hungry, and his strength fails; he drinks no water and is faint. 13 The carpenter stretches a line; he marks it out with a pencil.2 He shapes it with planes and marks it with a compass. He shapes it into the figure of a man, with the beauty of a man, to dwell in a house. 14 He cuts down cedars, or he chooses a cypress tree or an oak and lets it grow strong among the trees of the forest. He plants a cedar and the rain nourishes it. 15 Then it becomes fuel for a man. He takes a part of it and warms himself; he kindles a fire and bakes bread. Also he makes a god and worships it; he makes it an idol and falls down before it. 16 Half of it he burns in the fire. Over the half he eats meat; he roasts it and is satisfied. Also he warms himself and says, “Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire!” 17 And the rest of it he makes into a god, his idol, and falls down to it and worships it. He prays to it and says, “Deliver me, for you are my god!” Footnotes [1] 44:7 Or Who like me can proclaim it?

While Death may appear at times terrifying and at other times playful, those he summons almost always tremble with fear. All except one: the Fool. He joins the dance with a smile, laughing at the absurdity of it all. To him, the world is a theatre, and all men and women merely actors, each wearing different social masks to play their roles in society.There is something in the fool that Death appears to admire, something he seeks to imitate. Death, too, likes to play tricks. He does not always come as grim and serious, but often laughing, and dancing, mimicking the fool. Both laugh at human pretensions and the illusion of control over life, bringing down the proud and powerful whenever possible. Death's unsettling grin mirrors the fool's vacant smile or raucous laughter. Together, they embody two universal conditions that many prefer to ignore: mortality and folly. As “truth-tellers”, they show the hard truths hiding beneath everyday life.The fool's joy in life dares to challenge Death's dominion. Though Death always triumphs, it is never without a fierce struggle to overcome one of his most stubborn victims. For the fool embodies life, not death. He laughs at Death, and Death laughs back, but the fool still dances along the track.The fool dancing with death represents the union of opposites, life and death, wisdom and folly—a characteristic of the Self. When we stop seeing contradiction and start recognising paradox, something within us begins to heal. When the opposites are united, bliss arises. This is the true transcendent experience.“There is a mystical fool in me that proved to be stronger than all my science.” - Carl Jung

1 A good name is more desirable than great riches, and loving favor is better than silver and gold. 2 The rich and the poor have this in common: Yahweh is the maker of them all. 3 A prudent man sees danger and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and suffer for it. 4 The result of humility and the fear of Yahweh is wealth, honor, and life. 5 Thorns and snares are in the path of the wicked; whoever guards his soul stays from them. 6 Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. 7 The rich rule over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender. 8 He who sows wickedness reaps trouble, and the rod of his fury will be destroyed. 9 He who has a generous eye will be blessed, for he shares his food with the poor. 10 Drive out the mocker, and strife will go out; yes, quarrels and insults will stop. 11 He who loves purity of heart and speaks gracefully is the king's friend. 12 Yahweh's eyes watch over knowledge, but he frustrates the words of the unfaithful. 13 The sluggard says, "There is a lion outside! I will be killed in the streets!" 14 The mouth of an adulteress is a deep pit. He who is under Yahweh's wrath will fall into it. 15 Folly is bound up in the heart of a child; the rod of discipline drives it far from him. 16 Whoever oppresses the poor for his own increase and whoever gives to the rich, both come to poverty. 17 Turn your ear, and listen to the words of the wise. Apply your heart to my teaching. 18 For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you, if all of them are ready on your lips. 19 I teach you today, even you, so that your trust may be in Yahweh. 20 Haven't I written to you thirty excellent things of counsel and knowledge, 21 To teach you truth, reliable words, to give sound answers to the ones who sent you? 22 Don't exploit the poor because he is poor; and don't crush the needy in court; 23 for Yahweh will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them. 24 Don't befriend a hot-tempered man. Don't associate with one who harbors anger, 25 lest you learn his ways and ensnare your soul. 26 Don't you be one of those who strike hands, of those who are collateral for debts. 27 If you don't have means to pay, why should he take away your bed from under you? 28 Don't move the ancient boundary stone which your fathers have set up. 29 Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve kings. He won't serve obscure men. Listen Donate Subscribe: Proverbs Daily Podcast Psalms Daily Podcast
