3. Proverbs 14:24 The
crown of the wise is their riches: but
the foolishness of fools is folly.
We studied recently about the true riches, and true
riches are the crown of the wise.
Certainly riches include having all our needs met –
adequate food, shelter, clothing, transportation
But it also includes a good church, good friends, a
close walk with the Lord, respect, and honor.

4. 24b
but the foolishness of fools is folly.
Foolish behavior brings ever more
foolishness into one’s life.
One lie requires more lies to back it up.
Stealing leads to sneaking, lies and cover-ups.
Adultery requires sneaking, lying, deceiving.
The Way of Wisdom is the Way of God.

5. 25 A true
witness delivereth
souls: but a deceitful
witness speaketh lies.
Matthew 26 59 Now the
chief priests, and elders,
and all the council, sought
false witness against Jesus,
to put Him to death;
See what harm a liar can do.

6. Don’t lie about even small things.
It’s sin.
In Proverbs 6 God lists seven things that He
hates, and lying made the list twice.
Again and again in Scripture we are admonished to
be honest – with God, with other men, and with
ourselves.

7. 26-27
In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence:
and His children shall have a place of refuge. The
fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart
from the snares of death.
Fear of the Lord is manifested in obedience.
When our confidence is in the
Lord, we live our lives His Way,
And we are protected from the ravages of sin.

8. Sin produces
disease, poverty, imprisonment,
and death in the lives of those
who love it.
Romans 6 23 For the wages
of sin is death; but the gift of
God is eternal life through
Jesus Christ our Lord.
From sin unto
righteousness
through Jesus.

9. 28 In
the multitude of people is the king's honor: but
in the want of people is the destruction of the
prince.
Let all that wish well to the Kingdom of Christ, do
what they can, that many may be added to His
church.
Matthew Henry Concise Bible Commentary.
In this world, no man can be a leader if
he has no followers.

10. 29 He
that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.
Psalm 90 11 Who knoweth the
power of thine anger? even
according to thy fear, so is thy
wrath.
People often resort to anger to
hide their fear.

11. A man is afraid he is losing an argument, he gets
angry and loud because he has no good argument.
A normal man is
attacked; afraid

12. 30 A sound
heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the
rottenness of the bones.
(NIV) A heart at peace gives life to the body, but
envy rots the bones.
The condition of our mind and emotions
strongly affects our health and well-being.
Very destructive mindset.
1 Timothy 6 6 But godliness with
contentment is great gain.
