Trust The Lord Or Mammon – Proverbs 15:16

16 Better a little with the fear of the Lord
than great wealth with turmoil.

Proverbs Club Commentary

Walk the straight and narrow path regardless of earthly treasure.

14 Blessed is the one who always trembles before God,
but whoever hardens their heart falls into trouble.

Proverbs Club Commentary

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Proverbs 1:7 (NIV)

1 My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,

2 turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding—

3 indeed, if you call out for insight
and cry aloud for understanding,

4 and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure,

5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.

New International Version (NIV)

6 Through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for;
through the fear of the Lord evil is avoided.
