1 A man who isolates himself pursues selfishness, and defies all sound judgment. 2 A fool has no delight in understanding, but only in revealing his own opinion. 3 When wickedness comes, contempt also comes, and with shame comes disgrace. 4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters. The fountain of wisdom is like a flowing brook. 5 To be partial to the faces of the wicked is not good, nor to deprive the innocent of justice. 6 A fool's lips come into strife, and his mouth invites beatings. 7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are a snare to his soul. 8 The words of a gossip are like dainty morsels: they go down into a person's innermost parts. 9 One who is slack in his work is brother to him who is a master of destruction. 10 Yahweh's name is a strong tower: the righteous run to him, and are safe. 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, like an unscalable wall in his own imagination. 12 Before destruction the heart of man is proud, but before honor is humility. 13 He who answers before he hears, that is folly and shame to him. 14 A man's spirit will sustain him in sickness, but a crushed spirit, who can bear? 15 The heart of the discerning gets knowledge. The ear of the wise seeks knowledge. 16 A man's gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men. 17 He who pleads his cause first seems right— until another comes and questions him. 18 The lot settles disputes, and keeps strong ones apart. 19 A brother offended is more difficult than a fortified city. Disputes are like the bars of a fortress. 20 A man's stomach is filled with the fruit of his mouth. With the harvest of his lips he is satisfied. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue; those who love it will eat its fruit. 22 Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh. 23 The poor plead for mercy, but the rich answer harshly. 24 A man of many companions may be ruined, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

For the past ten weeks, we have walked through Proverbs 1-9, a section of Scripture that paints a vivid picture of wisdom's beauty and folly's destruction. Now, as we move into Proverbs 10, we transition from poetic discourse to the practical, everyday wisdom of the Proverbs themselves. The structure may seem scattered, jumping from one topic to another, but this is intentional - it encourages reflection and discussion. As we begin this next section, we will organize proverbs thematically, starting with the most frequently mentioned topic: our words. The sage speaks more about our speech than he does about money, sex, or family. Why? Because our words carry immense power - for life or death. “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.” Proverbs 18:21 We have all felt the weight of words. A careless insult can linger in our hearts for years, while a word of encouragement can change the trajectory of a person's life. Gossip, slander, and false accusations tear apart families, friendships, and even churches. Proverbs 6:16-19 lists seven things the Lord hates, and among them are a lying tongue and one who sows discord among brothers. Gossip isn't just a minor offense, it is a direct attack on unity, love, and peace, which are at the core of God's design for His people. And let's not forget that listening to gossip makes us just as guilty as speaking it. “An evildoer listens to wicked lips, and a liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue.” Proverbs 17:4 Gossip would die if there were no eager ears to receive it. But just as words have the power to destroy, they also have the power to heal. A timely word of encouragement can lift the soul, as Proverbs 12:25 says, “Anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.” Jesus Himself embodied this balance. He was full of both grace and truth. He spoke life into the broken, the weary, and the lost. And He warns us in Matthew 12:36-37 that we will give an account for every careless word we speak. Our words reflect what is in our hearts, and they will either justify us or condemn us. So, let's consider the diet of our words: what we speak, we consume. May our words be full of grace, seasoned with salt, and reflective of Christ, bringing life and healing to those around us.
God designed us for community, and the relationships we cultivate have a profound impact on our character and faith. Proverbs reminds us that true friendship is more than just companionship - it's about sharpening one another, walking through life's highs and lows together, and ultimately reflecting God's love. We'll look at what it means to be a faithful friend, how to build lasting relationships, and why friendships rooted in Christ are life-giving. The greatest example of true friendship comes from Jesus Himself. In John 15:13, He tells us, "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." Jesus didn't just teach about friendship; He demonstrated it through His sacrificial love. We'll explore what it means to love, challenge, and support one another in ways that honor God. We'll also talk about how we can overcome the challenges of friendship - betrayal, conflict, and forgiveness. Biblical wisdom helps us navigate the roadblocks. I encourage you to come ready to reflect on your own friendships. Do you have people in your life who sharpen you in your faith? Are you the kind of friend who encourages and strengthens others? Let's be intentional about building the kind of friendships that bring us closer to Christ. I look forward to learning with you this Sunday as we grow together in God's wisdom!
Austin Wadlow continues our series in Proverbs.
Most of us face conflict from time to time and God's Word tells us there IS a way to speak with wisdom, even in conflict. Today we'll work through Proverbs 18 and learn about how to work through conflict with God's wisdom. DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Hopefully, you've already read Proverbs 18. Take a moment and make a note of which verses address godly speech. How many did you find? Why do you think godly speech is so important for having godly wisdom? 2. In verse 1, why is it foolish to quarrel against wisdom? Why do people sometimes “stomp off” when faced with wisdom? How is this a reflection of verse 2, where that person just wants to “reveal their own mind”? 3. What are the benefits of wise words in verse 4? What is the danger of foolish words in verses 6 & 7? 4. How are whispering words described in verse 8? What do you think the author means by “whispering words”? 5. In verse 13, how might a person give an answer “before he hears”? Why do you think this would be folly and shame to him? 6. What is the principle of impartiality in verse 17? Why is this a key aspect of gaining wisdom? 7. According to verse 20, what is the fruit of wise words? 8. According to verse 21, what are the dangers of evil words? 9. As you reflect on this quick study of Proverbs 18, which principles of these verses most describes you? Are there any areas that you need to work on, that you might be a person who speaks with wise and godly words? Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon!
