Proverbs 16:1-5

Intro.

LORD is used more times in this chapter of Proverbs than any other chapter in the entire book of Proverbs. It is used 11 times. There is probably something we should get from that.

Is. 55:6 ¶ Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Is. 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. Is. 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. Is. 55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
