The sermon emphasizes the importance of embracing God's discipline, viewing it not as a punishment but as a loving correction essential for spiritual growth and conformity to Christ. It clarifies that chastening encompasses instruction, rebuke, and training, highlighting the need to avoid despising or becoming weary of these experiences, as they ultimately lead to strength, stability, and fruitfulness in the believer's life. The message underscores that God's loving correction, though sometimes painful, is a vital process for aligning individuals with His purpose and bringing them into a deeper relationship with Him, ultimately glorifying Him through their lives.

Weekly Sermon from Trinity Church Denver

God calls us to trust in Him wholeheartedly, reject self-reliance, submit to Him in all things, and fear Him by turning from evil. This path brings peace and aligns us with His redemptive purposes.

Intro:Good morning! We're diving into Proverbs chapter five today, as Glenn Power teaches. We'll confront a challenging, yet crucial, theme: the warnings about immorality and lust. While intense, these warnings and God's positive vision for sexuality are vital medicine for our souls in our "Summer of Wisdom" series.Scripture References: Proverbs 5:1-14, Proverbs 5:15-20, Proverbs 7:26, Proverbs 16:6, Matthew 5:27-29, John 4, 2 Samuel 11, Romans 5, 2 Peter 1Key Points:Proverbs' Urgent Warnings:Chapters 5-7 are almost entirely dedicated to warnings against immorality and lust.This feels like a "fear tactic" to modern ears, but Proverbs is not embarrassed to warn. It's the fear of the Lord (Proverbs 16:6), avoiding evil by understanding sin's devastating consequences.Jesus amplifies this: "If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out... better to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell" (Matthew 5:27-29). He goes to the heart, where lust begins.A Positive Vision for Sexuality:Proverbs also gives a positive vision for sex within marriage. Proverbs 5:15-20 graphically depicts the joy and pleasure of marital intimacy.God created sex as a beautiful gift within the marriage covenant.We need to move beyond shame; the problem isn't being "too sexual," but often not experiencing sexual fulfillment in God's intended way.The "Immoral Woman" in Modern Context:Proverbs' "immoral woman" represents a spirit of temptation (a profile of darkness) that pulls both men and women astray.Today, this "immoral woman" takes many forms, notably pornography, which statistics show is a pervasive struggle even among Christians and leaders. Proverbs 7:26: "Many are the victims she has brought down; her slain are a mighty throng."The Path to Freedom:Run to God, not from God, even in failure. Romans 5:8: "While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." God doesn't shame; He washes and loves.Embrace a Kingdom Gospel powerful enough to set you free. God gives us "everything we need for a godly life" (2 Peter 1:3). Don't settle for addiction.Overcome lust through daily connection with the Spirit: Prayer, Word study, fasting.Overcome lust through divine purpose: Idleness and boredom lead to sin (2 Samuel 11 – David and Bathsheba). God has a unique mission for you.Overcome lust through true intimacy with God: For singles, the highest pleasure is intimacy with the Creator. John 4: "Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst... a spring of water welling up to eternal life." God's love satisfies deeply.Overcome lust through transparent relationships, self-control, self-imposed boundaries, and specialized support. If you've tried everything, get help!Conclusion:Sexual sin is deeply personal and can feel shameful, a padlock without a key. But God offers life, not death. In our deepest, darkest moments, He says, "I choose you. I love you. Come to me." Breaking sin's power isn't about bootstraps; it's through Him.Call to Action:Receive prayer today; breaking sin's power isn't done alone. When we open up and invite God's light, amazing things happen. Come to the table to remember Jesus' broken body and spilled blood—His ultimate price for our freedom. He gave His life so we could have life. Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI. Please notify us if you find any errors.

06/29/2025 - Matthew Simpson - What Does it Mean to Trust in the Lord (Proverbs 3) by Faith Community Church of South Boston, VA

Today's Bible Verse: Numbers 6:24-26 –“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” ✨ Daily Meditation: This moving prayer by Amanda Idleman is a sacred reminder that every child is a gift from God, no matter the circumstances of their arrival. When Amanda and her family were called to foster a fragile newborn in the NICU, the decision was steeped in uncertainty, yet grounded in fierce faith. God answered their prayers for life and protection, showing that parenting is a holy calling and children are never a burden—they are a blessing of eternal value. Whether you're welcoming your first child, navigating the complexities of fostering or adoption, or simply praying over the next generation, this episode reminds us that God hears, responds, and walks with us in the journey of parenting.

Pastor Ky Bishop

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom…” — Proverbs 9:10 True wisdom doesn't start with clever thoughts—it starts with reverence for God. When we truly know who God is, that knowledge produces fear—not terror, but awe. That awe produces obedience, and that obedience is what wisdom really is. In this episode, we unpack how fear, knowledge, and obedience work together to grow us in wisdom—not just in what we say, but in how we live. Let this encourage you: Wisdom is not just knowing—it's doing. #EncouragementForChristians #Proverbs910 #FearOfTheLord #TrueWisdom #ObedienceIsWisdom

Wisdom shows us the snare of fearing people and the safety of trusting the Lord. Fearing people is one of our great struggles in life and it causes many problems. The solution to the fear of people is not found in ourselves, but in turning ourselves over to the Lord and to his care. By trusting in the Lord, the fear of man loses its grip on our hearts and becomes less directive of our steps. Today, may we grow in faith and become less fearful of others. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God's grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

In this rapid-fire sermon, Ato explores the teaching of Proverbs 3:5-7... "Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Don't be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil."

In this powerful message, Pastor Lawrence explores the biblical significance of remembrance in our spiritual journey. Drawing from Joshua 4:1-9, we discover God's instructions for creating physical memorials and their spiritual significance in our lives today. Learn how intentional remembrance keeps us connected to God's faithfulness and transforms how we live out our faith.Key Points:God intentionally designed our minds with memory so we would not forget His faithfulnessThroughout Scripture, God commanded His people to create memorials to remember His mighty worksThe Bible contains numerous calls to remember God's deliverance, guidance, and provisionThree Ways to Remember God's Work:Be intentional about creating memorials in your lifeUse those memorials to teach your children about God's power and mercyLet your own life become a memorial to God's powerful workScripture References:Joshua 4:1-9 (The memorial stones at the Jordan River)Deuteronomy 6:12, 8:11-14 (Warnings against forgetting the Lord)Proverbs 22:6 (Training children in God's ways)Matthew 5:14 (Being a light to the world)Bottom Line: Our lives should be monuments to God's faithfulness. By intentionally creating memorials, teaching others through them, and living as a testimony, we keep God's mighty works alive in our hearts and in future generations. Pile up your stones of remembrance and tell the story of Jesus and His love.Connect with us at www.grandpoint.church/nextstepsWatch online on YouTubeFollow us on Facebook and InstagramSign up for our free weekly newsletter

The Psalmist writes, "The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?" (Psalm 118:6) And yet, we are so often swayed in thought, word, and deed by the Fear of Man, the second-to-last sin on our list.Fear of Man, or rather fearing the thoughts and judgments of other people, can so often hide behind the guise of empathy, of people-pleasing, of wanting to do what is best for others. And yet, it can so easily "lay a snare" for Christians, to be caught in a trap of longing for others' approval, while true safety and gospel rest comes through trust in the Lord (Proverbs 29:25). For seeking the approval of man is futile and worthless, and cannot be accomplished in congruence with a life committed to Christ, as Paul writes, "If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ" (Galatians 1:10). Though commendation and recognition from one's peers is a temptation unlike any other, "It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man" (Psalm 118:8).So join us to learn how this so often manifests, how to help one another through it, and how to live a life free of fear of man!Be sure to come back every Tuesday for new episodes and Thursday for bonus content, and find us on the following platforms as well:Find us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/oneanotherpodcast?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Find us on YouTube:https://youtube.com/@oneanotherpodcast?si=7-JJ9raR9Fr0cQ9bFind us on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/4RGIMhed26LZsl9TI56yPN?si=2924a1be839549b9Find us on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one-another/id1797190030

Sermon from Aaron Anderson on March 30, 2025

To trust in the LORD with all your heart is the wisest way to live. This passage in Proverbs 3 exhorts us to trust the LORD and then shows us what trust looks like in our everyday attitudes and actions. The LORD is actively teaching us as the children he loves to grow in wisdom and to trust him more. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world.

Your Nightly Prayer

Why study Proverbs? Because life is hard!   As we begin to open the book, we are reminded of the complexities of life—relationships, conflict, and unexpected difficulties. Proverbs offers us a timeless guide for navigating these challenges with wisdom. The book, written by Solomon, contrasts two paths: the way of the wise and the way of the fool. Its purpose is clear from the outset: to impart skills for living a meaningful and purposeful life by aligning with God's design. Wisdom is not strictly intellectual; it is a response to how God has ordered the world. Proverbs invites us to recognize and respond to the Creator, whose design leads to the life we deeply desire.   The foundation of wisdom begins with “the fear of the Lord” (Proverbs 1:7). This is a reverence and awe that acknowledges God's greatness, holiness, and goodness. This fear is not about dread but about living in the wonder of God's majesty while embracing His nearness and grace. Such recognition humbles us and opens our hearts to instruction, making us teachable and responsive to Godly counsel. Proverbs warn us of the consequences of foolishness which leads to broken relationships, missed opportunities, and ultimately disgrace. The fool lives out of alignment with God's order, perpetuating chaos and harm, while the wise find life, honor, and peace by walking in God's ways.   Solomon's teaching is particularly directed toward the young and those lacking guidance from a Godly father. Proverbs personifies wisdom as a woman calling out, inviting all to embrace knowledge and reject folly. The lessons extend to practical living, from choosing wise companions to taming our words and emotions. These truths are timeless and applicable to all, shaping how we live, love, and lead. As we engage with Proverbs, may we hear the call to wisdom—learning from nature, reflecting on God's Word, and aligning our lives with His perfect design. In doing so, we will discover the beauty, safety, and blessing of a life rooted in God's wisdom.

Are You A Pantser or a Plotter #RTTBROS #Nightlight Divine Design: Finding Balance Between Planning and Providence "A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps." - Proverbs 16:9 KJV Just as writers approach their craft as either "plotters" or "pantsers," many of us navigate life with similar tendencies. Some meticulously plan every detail, creating life's outline before living its chapters. Others embrace spontaneity, letting their story unfold organically, trusting in the moment's inspiration. The Scripture provides examples of both approaches. Noah was given detailed blueprints for the ark - a divine "outline" to follow precisely. Meanwhile, Abraham was simply told to go to a land that God would show him later, walking by faith rather than a predetermined plan. Consider Joseph, who interpreted Pharaoh's dreams and created a detailed fourteen-year plan to save Egypt. Yet his own life story hadn't followed any outline he could have written. The path from favored son to slave to prisoner to prime minister wasn't plotted on any human map. King David, the great strategist who planned battles with precision, also wrote spontaneous psalms of praise and danced before the Lord with abandoned joy. He understood the balance between careful planning and Spirit-led spontaneity: "O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps" (Jeremiah 10:23 KJV). For those of us who are "plotters" in life, we must remember that while "The preparations of the heart in man" are good, "the answer of the tongue is from the Lord" (Proverbs 16:1 KJV). Our most carefully crafted plans must remain flexible to divine editing. Sometimes God's greatest works in our lives come through unplanned chapters we never would have written for ourselves. Conversely, those who are "pantsers" might need to remember Solomon's wisdom: "The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want" (Proverbs 21:5 KJV). While spontaneity can be beautiful, certain aspects of our spiritual lives - like prayer, Bible study, and fellowship - benefit from intentional planning and discipline. The key is finding holy balance. We need both the discipline to plan and the flexibility to follow God's unexpected leadings. After all, God Himself is both the ultimate Plotter - having planned our salvation before the foundation of the world - and the Master of divine surprises, working in ways that eye hath not seen nor ear heard. Prayer: Lord, help us find the balance between careful planning and faithful flexibility. Give us wisdom to know when to plot our course and when to trust Your unexpected leadings. May we neither be bound by rigid plans nor carried about by every wind of circumstance. In Jesus' name, Amen.

How can we walk in the fear of the Lord?

Pastor Mike Ascher

From Atheists.orgTrusting God“A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD…” — Proverbs 12:2Now consider the case of Job. After commissioning Satan to ruin Job financially and to slaughter his shepherds and children to win a petty bet with Satan. God asked Satan: “Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.” — Job 2:3Can two Christians deal with this?

The fear of the Lord- Proverbs says, "The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life." Those who fear the Lord understand that they are responsible for their actions first and foremost, before the Lord. The fear of the Lord should influence what we say and how we treat others.

Why do our words matter? Why do our words matter? Today, Emma Dotter talks through Psalm 12, where David is crying out to God for help because he sees how people are hurting one another with their words. As Proverbs 18:21 says, the tongue has the power of life and death, which means our words can either tear people down or build them up. Maybe you personally have been hurt by the words of others, whether careless or intentional. We can find hope knowing that God sent His Son, the Word made flesh to dwell among us and bring life abundant to those who trust in Him as Savior and Lord. Take some time to reflect on how Psalm 12 encourages us to be careful with our words.   Additional Scripture Referenced: Proverbs 6:16-19, a lying tongue is an abomination to the Lord Proverbs 12:22, “lying lips are detestable to the Lord” John 8:44, the devil “is a liar and the father of lies” Revelation 21:8  Proverbs 18:21, “death and life are in the power of the tongue” Colossians 4:6, “let your speech always be gracious” John 3:16 Proverbs 15:1-2, “a soft answer turns away wrath”  John 1:14, “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us”  Grab a NEW Join The Journey Journal for 2024: https://a.co/d/7rt0H3g  Got kids?
