Evil writes its own sentence, even inscribes them on the bullet. But the bullet fired by wicked men will ricochet! The snare set for the righteous becomes the very trap of the wicked.
Darkness represents the unraveling of Egypt's false power; light represents the guidance of יהוהs covenant people.
Spiritual dislocation occurs when man cuts himself off from divine order, the mind itself turns into Egypt.
Elohim can take the same creature/element and make it curse for the wicked yet benefit for the righteous.
Living is to learn to connect the material to the eternal — that's spiritual immortality.
Worship sets the pattern for our lives; if our altar is crowded with idols (money, relationships, rituals, ego), we can't be surprised when our life mirrors their corruption.
You can't confuse forces and elements with the reason you exist. Don't worship the creation—worship the creator!
Elohim disciplines not with destruction, but with strategic mercy.
There has to be a purification in places that are ‘inhabited only by angels and spirits'—just like Israel's desert pilgrimage; we need to embark on our own desert pilgrimage.
We have to make a lot of choices every day… financial decisions, relational decisions, parenting decisions. From making a very small decision to dealing with what seems like an impossible situation, we often find ourselves looking for wisdom and striving to follow God's will. We're seeking to make wise choices. In this message, Jill looks at the life of Solomon to help us understand how we can develop wisdom.

In Wisdom of Solomon 10, we're gonna see the theme of Wisdom as the divine force that brings salvation, redemption, and transformation through human history. The stories of Noah, Lot, Jacob, and others will show יהוה's sovereign intervention in times of crisis.
Solomon's plea for wisdom is just like that of Moshe and David who both sought divine guidance for their leadership.
Wisdom's involvement in establishing the world. She actually imparted the wisdom that allowed creation to function in harmony with יהוה.
Wisdom is "without guile" and "imparts without envy." There's a purity and refinement that's totally akin to the process of our spiritual purification!

Solomon calls for those in power to understand their responsibility, act with righteousness, and lead with wisdom.
A beautiful woman who shows no discretion is like a pig with a ring in its nose.Morally upstanding people care for their animals.And those who spare the rod ruin their children.The Book of Proverbs is not afraid to pull punches and the aphorisms that flow from Solomon's pen are nothing if not colourful.Enjoy the wisdom!Written and produced by Chas BayfieldMusic by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins MusicCover art by Lisa Goff
Is wisdom a protective force, guiding the righteous through life and bringing them into alignment with the divine will, while the wicked remain lost in their futile pursuits?
We discuss the Apocryphal book The Wisdom of Solomon and see how it may have effected the world view of the Jews during the time of Christ.
Psalm 72, Proverbs 17 & Wisdom of Solomon 13: He That Shutteth His Lips is Esteemed by Shawn Ozbun
The immediate post death Eternal Reward for the Righteous, the righteous live forever and will be honored by יהוה.
Through the refining fire, we're shaped into the likeness of Messiah. But those who reject this reconciliation face the ultimate punishment in the lake of fire after judgment. This process of refinement, available to all through Yahusha, shows that יהוהs judgment is not for eternal destruction but for purification and transformation.

The tension between the righteous and the wicked really comes into view. The wicked opposing the righteous, mocking their faithfulness.

The wicked describe the righteous as those who "live contrary to our ways," whose lives condemn their ways because they uphold the moral order.
Some things in life don't make sense. No matter how hard we try, some problems remain unsolved, some wounds refuse to heal, and some situations stay broken. It's frustrating. Welcome to The Daily. We go through the bible verse-by-verse, chapter-by-chapter, every single day. Our text today is Ecclesiastes 1:14-16. I have seen everything that is done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind. What is crooked cannot be made straight, and what is lacking cannot be counted. I said in my heart, “I have acquired great wisdom, surpassing all who were over Jerusalem before me, and my heart has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.” — Ecclesiastes 1:14-16 Solomon, the wisest man to walk the earth, assessed life and declared a difficult truth: What is crooked cannot be made straight. This wasn't just about physical realities—it pointed to deeper issues in life. There are injustices we can't fix, relationships we can't mend, and questions we can't answer. The phrase "What is crooked" refers to circumstances beyond our control—things that no amount of wisdom, effort, or strength can set straight. Solomon is saying that human knowledge and effort have decisive limits. Here's the hard truth: some things are crooked and will stay that way because they're beyond human repair. We are not God. We do not have the power to straighten every issue. And so, Solomon's wisdom led him to this frustrating realization: no matter how much we speculate, study, or strive, some problems will always be out of reach. This isn't an invitation to despair—it's a call for us to surrender. Instead of exhausting ourselves trying to straighten what God has made crooked, we must learn to trust the One who made it crooked. Solomon reinforces this in Ecclesiastes 7:13: "Consider the work of God: who can make straight what he has made crooked?" Notice the operative word—"He." Sometimes, we're so focused on fixing what God has made crooked that we miss the point—He may have done it to draw us back to Him. Where in your life has God made something crooked? Is it a broken relationship, an unfair situation, or a profound question that lacks an answer? What if the real answer isn't what you expected, but God Himself—using the crooked thing to get your attention? When life won't straighten out, the simplest answer is to trust in the Lord—the One who holds both the straight and the crooked in His hands. #TrustGod, #EcclesiastesWisdom, #GodsPlan ASK THIS: What is one situation in your life that feels impossible to fix? How do you respond when life doesn't go the way you planned? Why do you think God allows some things to remain crooked? What would it look like to surrender your struggle to God today? DO THIS: Surrender what you cannot fix to God and trust that He has a greater purpose in it. PRAY THIS: Lord, I confess that I often try to fix what only You can. Help me trust in Your wisdom and surrender the crooked things in my life to You. Amen. PLAY THIS: Jesus, We Love You.
Psalm 65, Proverbs 12 & Wisdom of Solomon 12: O Thou That Hearest Prayer by Shawn Ozbun
Purity of intent, speech, and action as prerequisites for accessing divine wisdom and power.
What is the divine purpose of justice within the fabric of our existence? How does Solomon's wisdom guide us, and what hidden truths can be uncovered from wisdoms role in Israel's ancient journey? During the time of Moshe, how did wisdom shape the exodus from Egypt and the wilderness period.

John 6:51; Proverbs 9:1-6; 1 Kings 2:10-12; 3:3-14Praise for God's Wonderful Works Praise the Lord! I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart, in the company of the upright, in the congregation. Great are the works of the Lord, studied by all who delight in them. Full of honor and majesty is God's work, and God's righteousness endures forever. God has gained renown by wonderful deeds; the Lord is gracious and merciful. Provides food; God is ever mindful of covenant. God has shown the people the power of God's works, in giving them the heritage of the nations. The works of God's hands are faithful and just; all their precepts are trustworthy. They are established forever and ever, to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness. God sent redemption to the people; has commanded their covenant forever. Holy and awesome is God's name. The love of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all those who practice it have a good understanding. God's praise endures forever. -Psalm 111
