  Hello friends, it's Sean here. And it's Yvonne here, too.

  Happy Friday. A happy Friday indeed.
• 0:18
  And it is not any off Friday, it is Boxing Day, it is the day
• 0:22
  after Christmas. How you feeling?
• 0:24
  Oh, I feel great. Probably I've eaten just a
• 0:27
  little bit too much delicious food.
• 0:29
  That is, that's kind of the the modus operandi effect first
• 0:33
  Christmas celebrations, right? Pretty much, I think salad
• 0:37
  today. Let's do it.
• 0:38
  Salad and cricket, what a wonderful combination.
• 0:41
  Well, those those two things seldom go together, but they
• 0:43
  will today. And the other thing we're going
• 0:45
  to celebrate today, well, add to the mix today is.
• 0:48
  Reuben's birthday. Oh wow, Proverbs.
• 0:53
  He actually didn't. Think I was happy birthday
• 0:55
  Reuben. But yes, it is about proverbs.
• 0:57
  But if you ask a mum, of course you're going.
• 0:59
  Straight to. Your children's birthday, Yes,
• 1:02
  it is Reuben's birthday, but it is also our day of Proverbs.
• 1:05
  And we continue for this week and next week in chapter 19 of
• 1:10
  the Proverbs before we keep on moving on to chapter 20.
• 1:13
  But let us read these parcels of wisdom.
• 1:17
  That I can do with. Sounds great, yeah.
• 1:20
  You less so much, but definitely I.
• 1:22
  I need the wisdom too. Alright, let us read together
• 1:26
  Proverbs 1919 to 24. Hot tempered people must pay the
• 1:42
  penalty. If you rescue them once, you
• 1:45
  will have to do it again. Get all the advice and
• 1:50
  instruction you can so you'll be wise the rest of your life.
• 1:56
  You can make many plans, but the Lord's purpose will prevail.
• 2:02
  Loyalty makes a person attractive.
• 2:04
  It is better to be poor than dishonest.
• 2:10
  Fear of the Lord leads to life, bringing security and protection
• 2:15
  from harm. Lazy people take food in their
• 2:19
  hand but don't even lift it to their mouth.
• 2:25
  And again. Hot tempered people must pay the
• 2:28
  penalty. If you rescue them once, you
• 2:32
  will have to do it again. Get all the advice and
• 2:37
  instruction you can so you will be wise the rest of your life.
• 2:43
  You can make many plans, but the Lord's purpose will prevail.
• 2:50
  Loyalty makes a person attractive.
• 2:53
  It is better to be poor than dishonest.
• 2:58
  Fear of the Lord leads to life, bringing security and protection
• 3:02
  from harm. Lazy people take food in their
• 3:08
  hand but don't even lift it to their mouth.
• 3:22
  Wow, so many amazing things today.
• 3:25
  Oh just reading that fear of the Lord leads to life.
• 3:29
  I was like, oh, write that on my heart please.
• 3:33
  Yeah, it's beautiful. And I love, I love.
• 3:35
  Obviously this is a book of wisdom.
• 3:37
  And so there's a real preference toward wisdom.
• 3:39
  But I love the way it talks about get all the advice and
• 3:42
  instruction that you can and like, you save it up.
• 3:45
  And that is something that that you never lose.
• 3:48
  And then what do you do with that wisdom?
• 3:50
  Like the human way is to use wisdom to make good decisions
• 3:53
  and lead well and, you know, be productive.
• 3:55
  Whereas here it talks about wisdom is then used to just
• 4:00
  submit to God's purpose and God's will that will ultimately
• 4:04
  prevail. Amazing.
• 4:08
  Very different way of being right.
• 4:10
  Sure is. Ah Lord, thank you for showing
• 4:14
  us a different way, a way that leads to life.
• 4:19
  Help us to fear You and as we fear you and place you at the
• 4:24
  apex of priority in our life, that your wisdom would come and
• 4:30
  that wisdom would not lead us to be self sufficient, but it would
• 4:34
  lead us to submit ourselves before you.
• 4:36
  Because that is what true wisdom is.
• 4:39
  It's knowing you and knowing our place in your glorious Kingdom.
• 4:45
  So we just submit ourselves afresh to you and your ways and
• 4:50
  your wisdom and your life. And we pray all of these things
• 4:55
  in your name, Jesus, Amen.
