Proverbs 17:20 A wise man controls what he says

what you say reveals who you are. When you cannot say anything good about a person, your deceitfulness is exposed. When your mouth is filled with foul language, you make it easy for the evil one to enslave you. Your tongue will write the story of your life. Wise people recognize how important it is to CONTROL what they say!

Proverbs 16:8 Don't allow your desire for money deceive you

I want and need money. But, there are limits to what I will do to get it. If I pursue money to the extent that I rob my family of time they need with me or I have to injure someone else to get it, I have allowed myself to be deceived! All that money can NEVER buy back what I will lose. My blindness will cause others to suffer and I will have to pay for my ignorance! It's too bad that many of our country's leaders don't know this.

Proverbs 12:27 Work hard and you can roast what you hunt!

We never know what we can achieve until we push ourselves to the point where it hurts. It is easy to say "I can't" or "it's too hard". I have discovered hidden abilities, answers to problems and great reward, after burning the midnight oil! We must teach our kids the value of hard work; then they can roast what they hunt.A

Proverbs 9:7-8 Don't waste your time and effort with scoffers

A "scoffer" is a person who hears the truth and ridicules or mocks it. It is foolhardy to attempt to reason with or correct such a person. Don't waste time with these people, they will try to hurt you and then laugh about it.! We must learn WHERE to sow; we have to learn to recognize GOOD GROUND! You can identify a wise man by the way he reacts to the truth!

Leviticus 18:6-8 Stay pure in the midst offsexual immorality

"None of you shall approach anyone who is near of kin to him, to uncover his nakedness: I am the Lord. 7 The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you shall not uncover. She is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 8 The nakedness of your father’s wife you shall not uncover; it is your father’s nakedness.

Lev 18:0  Today's Word of Wisdom is a bit different, so bear with me. We live in a day when wicked people are trying to "normalize" pedophilia.  In Leviticus 18, God labels various sexual acts, especially incest,  as wickedness and prohibits them.  It is interesting to note that these laws were given as Israel was about to enter the land of Canaan, which was filled with these wicked sexual practices and with child sacrifice. We are called today, to exemplify a higher standard of living which is achievable through Christ!  The attached video unveils when these practices started and why the Canaanites were cursed.

NOTE: The term "Uncover your ____'s nakedness" refers to a sexual act or an act which strips a person of dignity or authority
