3. Proverbs 21:12 The righteous man wisely considereth
the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the
wicked for their wickedness.
(NIV) 12 The Righteous One takes note of the
house of the wicked and brings the wicked to ruin.

Good men envy not the prosperity of evil-doers;
they see there is a curse on them.
Matthew Henry Concise Bible Commentary.

4. Psalm 37 1-2 Fret not thyself because of evildoers,
neither be thou envious against the workers of
iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the
grass, and wither as the green herb.
Sometimes people look at the rich and famous and
feel envious, without considering the evil they do.

The Righteous Judge is watching, and He will
make all things right in the day of judgment.

5. Romans 6 21-23 What fruit had ye then in those
things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of
those things is death. But now being made free
from sin, and become servants to God, ye have
your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting
life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of
God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
It is very short-sighted to envy sinners; they have
5
nothing good to look forward to.
While we have eternal life with the Lord God.

6. 6
Psalm 34 3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let
us exalt His Name together. 4 I sought the LORD,
and He heard me, and delivered me from all my
fears.
If we only seek God’s face, He will hear our cry
and deliver us from all our fears.
Genesis 15 1 After these things the Word of the
LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear
not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding
great reward.

7. 7
Matthew 10 28 And fear not them which kill the
body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather
fear Him which is able to destroy both soul and
body in hell.
Luke 12 29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what
ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. 30 For
all these things do the nations of the world seek after:
and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these
things. 31 But rather seek ye the Kingdom of God; and
all these things shall be added unto you. 32 Fear not,
little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give
you the kingdom.

8. Psalm 34 6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard
him, and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel
of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear
Him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the
LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.
Learn to trust the Lord; He is faithful to His own.
The Lord will deliver us out of all our troubles.
Learn to wait patiently and see what
8
the Lord will do.
Don’t panic before the need arrives; Trust!

9. 13 Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he
also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.

We see so many who are con
artists that we sometimes
hesitate to help anyone.
But God wants us to help the
truly needy, whom He puts in
our lives.

10. We can’t help everyone who is in need.
But when God puts someone in my life, and God
10
has supplied my need with an abundance.
Then I should, with that abundance,
help that needy person.
Don’t just build a bigger barn
and store up your abundance.
Share God’s blessings.

11. 11
14 A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in
the bosom strong wrath.
Why do many husbands buy
flowers for their wife?
To pacify her anger.

12. 12
15 It is joy to the just to do
judgment: but destruction shall
be to the workers of iniquity.
The righteous welcome justice
when we receive it.
Workers of iniquity hate it because
it’s against them.
