PROFITING FROM PROVERBS – 8/29/2021
King James Bible | 8/29/2021 | pilgrimsprogress

“The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it” (Proverbs 29:4).


TOPICS: Culture/Society
KEYWORDS:
“The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it” (Proverbs 29:4).

“The King by judgment establisheth the land,” and in verse 14, “the King that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne shall be established for ever.” These are general truths. Of course, it will be a positive, eternal truth, once Jesus Christ takes over, but in our time, you got a good ruler and they try to put him out of office. So, sometimes when a man does try to do right, it doesn't pay off; but that's the exception and not necessarily the rule.

If they had open and fair elections in Russia and ran somebody that was for the church and for the personal freedoms and for open business; he would win in a landslide.

“The King by judgment;” in other words, good judgment, social judgement, economic judgment, military judgment “establisheth the land,” but you have these crazy Democrats that for decades been trying to give our country away and prepares for an invasion from without. We even have some elitist Republicans that have joined them in hopes that we can embrace globalism and eradicate the sovereignty of the United States. That’s not good judgment.

They keep saying, “If we get rid of our arms, we will make peace. That is not the way that you make peace with Russia. That's crazy! It’s just like Lester Roloff used to say when he was with us, “It’s the insane people running the asylum.” You can’t deal with our enemies like that. You don’t deal with China, or Russia, like that. You deal with force and power with those people, that’s all they understand. They don’t understand the American dream.

“The King by judgment establisheth the land, but he that received gifts overthroweth it,” that’s a guy that will take bribes, and that's what's wrong with South American countries and central American countries. They are so full of corruption. You talk to any missionary that's been in any central or South American country, or Mexico or countries like that where those Latin Americans have gotten into power. They are the most corrupt, ungodly, unjust governments you can imagine. You just can't imagine. Everybody is paid off from the top to the bottom, it's just one big payoff.

In those countries, about every house has a wall around it. They have to. It's just finders keepers, losers weepers on a large scale.

“The King by judgment establisheth the land, but he that received gifts overthroweth it,” that’s why those countries can be easily overthrown. Those countries are just militarily shot and morally shot.

Daily Bible study is necessary if we are going to begin our day with the right attitude and the right spiritual diet. Proverbs has 31 chapters, and most months have 31 days, so let's read a chapter of Proverbs a day and see what God might have for us. As the Lord leads, share with us what God has shown you in a special way and by His grace let us build up a devotional repository. Let's keep our knives and forks handy for some daily bread! Ideally, a chapter or two of Proverbs will fit in nicely with a good plan of reading our Bibles through each year.

If anyone would like to be added to the ping list, please let me know either by post or by p.m.
