00:00:48,075 --> 00:00:50,129
I said, we are in our last week

18
00:00:50,129 --> 00:00:52,309
of July, and we are

19
00:00:52,850 --> 00:00:53,350
covering

20
00:00:53,809 --> 00:00:56,585
the wisdom of Proverbs this month. And so

21
00:00:56,585 --> 00:00:57,564
these are,

22
00:00:58,344 --> 00:01:00,284
scriptures that can help you

23
00:01:00,744 --> 00:01:02,125
through your daily

24
00:01:02,664 --> 00:01:05,209
lives. Things you can apply to that's gonna

25
00:01:05,290 --> 00:01:06,189
gonna help you

26
00:01:06,729 --> 00:01:07,229
grow,

27
00:01:07,689 --> 00:01:09,390
learn, and encourage you

28
00:01:09,689 --> 00:01:11,469
as you move forward. So

29
00:01:11,849 --> 00:01:14,084
we are now in

30
00:01:15,104 --> 00:01:16,244
Proverbs 13

31
00:01:17,104 --> 00:01:19,045
and we are at

32
00:01:20,530 --> 00:01:21,670
verse 18.

33
00:01:22,210 --> 00:01:24,469
And I'm calling this one discipline

34
00:01:25,329 --> 00:01:26,230
and corrections.

35
00:01:27,490 --> 00:01:27,990
Discipline

36
00:01:29,344 --> 00:01:30,165
and corrections.

37
00:01:31,025 --> 00:01:32,325
And it reads as follows.

38
00:01:33,665 --> 00:01:35,605
This is verse 18. Whoever

39
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:37,579
discards discipline

40
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:39,980
comes to poverty

41
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,500
and shame.

42
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,380
But whoever heeds correction

43
00:01:45,159 --> 00:01:45,594
is

44
00:01:47,114 --> 00:01:48,875
honored. Let me read that again. This is

45
00:01:48,875 --> 00:01:49,775
verse 18.

46
00:01:51,194 --> 00:01:51,694
Whoever

47
00:01:52,155 --> 00:01:53,375
discards discipline

48
00:01:54,259 --> 00:01:55,399
comes to property

49
00:01:56,179 --> 00:01:57,399
and shame.

50
00:01:58,099 --> 00:01:59,959
But whoever heeds correction

51
00:02:00,579 --> 00:02:01,560
is honored.

52
00:02:02,134 --> 00:02:05,254
And this is very, very, very, very basic

53
00:02:05,254 --> 00:02:06,715
that if you don't get this

54
00:02:07,575 --> 00:02:08,074
look.

55
00:02:08,854 --> 00:02:10,794
You go through life and

56
00:02:11,094 --> 00:02:12,139
at some point,

57
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,280
you veer off what a case might be

58
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,580
and someone comes along

59
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:17,180
to give you correction,

60
00:02:17,719 --> 00:02:18,939
to give you discipline.

61
00:02:20,454 --> 00:02:23,014
You have 2 choices. Either you can heed

62
00:02:23,014 --> 00:02:24,954
the warning that they're giving you,

63
00:02:25,414 --> 00:02:27,814
you can heed the correction that they're giving

64
00:02:27,814 --> 00:02:28,314
you,

65
00:02:29,090 --> 00:02:29,590
or

66
00:02:30,129 --> 00:02:32,689
you can discard it and keep going down

67
00:02:32,689 --> 00:02:34,370
that road. And then when you fall down

68
00:02:34,370 --> 00:02:36,530
and bust your face open, you can't say

69
00:02:36,530 --> 00:02:37,909
that nobody told you.

70
00:02:39,555 --> 00:02:40,375
Look. God

71
00:02:40,675 --> 00:02:43,735
corrects and discipline us all the time

72
00:02:44,194 --> 00:02:46,969
because we are his children. He loves us.

73
00:02:47,689 --> 00:02:50,189
That's the whole purpose of discipline and correction.

74
00:02:50,250 --> 00:02:53,150
It's it's about it ain't about the discipline

75
00:02:53,770 --> 00:02:55,965
of what's being done. It's the fact that

76
00:02:55,965 --> 00:02:58,925
you being disciplined means that you are loved.

77
00:02:58,925 --> 00:03:02,365
God loves us. He loves his children. He

78
00:03:02,365 --> 00:03:04,969
doesn't want us to veer off and do

79
00:03:04,969 --> 00:03:08,250
stupid things that's gonna cause you harm, cause

80
00:03:08,250 --> 00:03:09,469
your family harm,

81
00:03:10,090 --> 00:03:11,930
and and and makes him sad that you're

82
00:03:11,930 --> 00:03:14,235
not doing the right things that you're supposed

83
00:03:14,235 --> 00:03:15,055
to be doing.

84
00:03:15,354 --> 00:03:18,174
That's the whole purpose of discipline and correction,

85
00:03:18,555 --> 00:03:20,680
especially when it comes from god. But not

86
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,060
only from god but from

87
00:03:22,439 --> 00:03:25,800
other elders that around you, other men that

88
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,444
are around you that see things going on

89
00:03:28,444 --> 00:03:29,965
in your life and they pull you to

90
00:03:29,965 --> 00:03:32,525
a side. They pull you aside and they're

91
00:03:32,525 --> 00:03:34,604
telling you that, hey, you might wanna rethink

92
00:03:34,604 --> 00:03:36,705
this. You might wanna go in this direction.

93
00:03:37,319 --> 00:03:39,800
That's because they love you. And they don't

94
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,040
wanna see you fall and bust your face

95
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,360
wide open. This is which is this is

96
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:45,340
what discipline

97
00:03:45,639 --> 00:03:46,724
and correction does.

98
00:03:47,605 --> 00:03:49,605
Again, brothers, we can take it either way.

99
00:03:49,605 --> 00:03:52,425
We can take in the discipline and corrections

100
00:03:54,004 --> 00:03:56,150
and and and learn from them and correct

101
00:03:56,150 --> 00:03:57,770
and move in another direction,

102
00:03:58,389 --> 00:03:59,770
or you can ignore it

103
00:04:00,469 --> 00:04:02,625
and fall and bust your face open. But

104
00:04:02,625 --> 00:04:04,784
when you do that, you can't say that

105
00:04:04,784 --> 00:04:07,284
nobody told you because god will definitely

106
00:04:08,064 --> 00:04:09,905
put you in time out. I did a

107
00:04:09,905 --> 00:04:11,604
podcast on that. Look it up.

108
00:04:11,985 --> 00:04:15,090
We've talked about it. It he will. I

109
00:04:15,090 --> 00:04:17,089
know. Ask me how I know. He'll do

110
00:04:17,089 --> 00:04:18,550
it. And so

111
00:04:19,329 --> 00:04:20,709
let's heed discipline.

112
00:04:21,329 --> 00:04:22,165
Let's heed correction. It's

113
00:04:22,964 --> 00:04:24,264
it's for our benefit.

114
00:04:24,645 --> 00:04:27,845
And if anybody, especially god, is doing it,

115
00:04:27,845 --> 00:04:29,865
it's because he loves us. Amen?

116
00:04:30,410 --> 00:04:33,710
Amen. Alright. That's our wisdom from Proverbs today.

117
00:04:34,009 --> 00:04:35,629
That's in chapter 13

118
00:04:36,730 --> 00:04:37,790
verse 18

119
00:04:38,585 --> 00:04:41,545
and it's called discipline and corrections. And it

120
00:04:41,545 --> 00:04:44,264
reads 1, read it again. It says, whoever

121
00:04:44,264 --> 00:04:45,245
discards discipline

122
00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:46,730
comes to poverty

123
00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:48,090
and shame,

124
00:04:48,470 --> 00:04:50,009
but whoever heeds correction

125
00:04:50,389 --> 00:04:51,370
is honored.

126
00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:53,830
And that says it all right there. That's

127
00:04:53,830 --> 00:04:56,274
god's word and that's why we read god's

128
00:04:56,274 --> 00:04:58,134
word because it's gonna give us

129
00:04:58,915 --> 00:05:01,895
correction. It gives us direction. So,

130
00:05:02,290 --> 00:05:04,529
alright, that's it, brothers. Y'all go have a

131
00:05:04,529 --> 00:05:05,270
great day.

132
00:05:05,730 --> 00:05:08,449
You are loved by god. I love you

133
00:05:08,449 --> 00:05:09,189
as well.

134
00:05:09,569 --> 00:05:11,504
Please be safe out there until the next

135
00:05:11,504 --> 00:05:13,425
time. This is brother Parker with the Kingdom

136
00:05:13,425 --> 00:05:14,564
in Action podcast,

137
00:05:15,024 --> 00:05:16,485
and I say as always,

138
00:05:16,865 --> 00:05:17,764
god bless.
