Day 09: Return Fire
Pray
Lord God, quiet my soul and open my mind and heart to receive your Word. Amen.
Read
Proverbs 16
Reflect
Solomon gives us practical instructions on how to live a godly life. He contrasts righteousness and wickedness, and instructs us on how to return fire to avoid falling into sin. What is better than gold or silver (v.16)? If I were truly obeying God, how would people know? Can I remember a time when my pride or temper made it difficult to obey God? How might God help me improve my actions?
Respond
God, I find myself desiring wrong sometimes. Help me to put aside my pride and anger, and to obey your Holy Word. Amen.

About this Plan
Everyone is capable of accomplishing great things, but no one can do it alone. Part of great service and leadership is relying on a trustworthy team. In the Old Testament, God used ambassadors in the form of prophets and poets to communicate his instructions and tasks, as well as consequences, incentives, and rewards to all people. This plan will provide a deeper understanding into God’s character and leadership qualities.
