GOD’S WISDOM FOR YOU PROVERBS 29:25-27 25 Fear of man will bring a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD will be safe. The fear of man drives him into the devil’s snare the way dogs flush birds for the hunter’s shotgun. This fear turns up in various forms, but the end is […]

GOD’S WISDOM FOR YOU PROVERBS 29:5-8 5 A man who flatters his neighbor is spreading a net for his feet. 6 In the transgression of an evil man there is a trap, but a righteous man will sing and be glad. These two proverbs are probably paired together because they both refer to […]
