#FathomChurch #Proverbs #ThisIsHowWeDoIt
1. INTRODUCTION: Hey Fathom Church!
o We are starting a new sermon series called “Proverbs”
- “This Is How We Do It”
• 90’s R&B star Montell Jordan is a Pastor at Victory World Church in Norcross, GA!!!
• Biblical Wisdom is about: HOW WE DO IT?
o Life – Money – Morality – Success – Live Well!!!
o The book of Proverbs was Written (mostly) by King Solomon
- 1 Kings 3: 1-15
• Solomon asks to rule with discernment (wisdom)?
o Knowing Right from Wrong
o God was so pleased he blessed Solomon with many other earthly blessings as well!
o The book of Proverbs is known for its many sayings (chpt. 10-31)
- Chpt. 1-9
• 10 Speeches from Father to his Sons
• 4 Poems from Lady Wisdom Herself
• 30 – Agur (the perfect reader of wisdom)
• 31 – Lemuel (Wisdom from His mother – Acrostic Poem)
o Proverbs is Probability – Not Promises!
o Proverbs 26: 4-5
- 4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
or you yourself will be just like him.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
or he will be wise in his own eyes.
Proverbs 1:1-7
1 The proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:
2 To know wisdom and instruction,
to understand words of insight,
3 to receive instruction in wise dealing,
in righteousness, justice, and equity;
4 to give prudence to the simple,
knowledge and discretion to the youth—
5 Let the wise hear and increase in learning,
and the one who understands obtain guidance,
6 to understand a proverb and a saying,
the words of the wise and their RIDDLES.
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
fools despise wisdom and instruction.
• This is the key concept in the Book of Proverbs!
o The Thesis – the main theme – the MOTTO!
- 9: 10 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”
- 15: 33 “Wisdom’s instruction is to fear the Lord,
and humility comes before honor.”
o Matthew 10: 28 “Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.”
• Who are we then? Who is this wisdom meant for? Do you want it?
o The Simple/Young … The Wise/Understanding … The Fool/Scoffer?
- In the coming weeks, let’s earnestly seek after God’s Wisdom!
