Once again, Solomon, the wisest man is the main author of this collection of common sense with the perspective of God in mind. There are thirty-one chapters each full of some of the best advice you will ever receive. One Chapter takes only about five minutes to read. So if your short on time they are perfect. Some people try to always read at least one chapter a day. If you follow this practice you will always be going through the book at least once a month.
I will leave you with the first seven verses from chapter one as a teaser. But don’t neglect to diligently study and meditate on all of Proverbs as often as you can. It will help you to trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. You will find the more you read them and apply them in your life, they will more than prove themselves over time and time again.
The proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:
To know wisdom and instruction, to understand words of insight,
to receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice, and equity;
to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth—
Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance,
to understand a proverb and a saying, the words of the wise and their riddles.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Proverbs 1:1-7
