Proverbs Chapter 28

Welcome back to the Daily Proverbs with Daniah! In today’s proverb, Daniah talks about how critical it is to commit ourselves to following after God. We often work to emulate our Messiah, Yeshua, but sometimes forget that He emulated the Father – the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob. By giving the Children of Israel the Torah, God gave us the rulebook for a relationship with Him. And each time we obey, we draw a little closer to the Father’s Heart.

Scripture References:

Those who forsake Torah praise the wicked,
but those who keep Torah stir them up.
Evil men do not understand justice,
but those who seek ADONAI understand it fully.

- Proverbs 28:4-5, 9, 13 TLV

It is better to take refuge in ADONAI than to trust in man.

- Psalm 118:9 TLV

Rejoice in the Lord always—again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all people. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything—but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the shalom of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Messiah Yeshua.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable—if there is any virtue and if there is anything worthy of praise—dwell on these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—put these things into practice, and the God of shalom will be with you.

- Philippians 4:4-9 TLV
