What Does God See?

God’s Way is Best
#
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.

Which Way Should You Go?
#
Proverbs 22:1, 2, 8, 16, 21, 29
Introduction
I have never made any claims about being good with directions, because
the truth of the matter is I’m not that good with directions. I have to
see a map, and really spend some time looking at a map to figure things
out.
Some people struggle with directions on a spiritual level, and are often
confused, and struggle with the right direction in their life. All the
verses we will look at this evening deal with the Way. Perhaps you ask
yourself, Which Way Should I Go? Many times we stand at a cross road in
our life, trying to figure out the best path to take. I hope tonights
message will help you, and encourage you to take the right path.

Looking ahead – Two Trails
#
Watch out! Watch where you are going! Be Careful!
Proverbs 22:3
Introduction
This verse sums up what we will look at this evening. Simply put, watch
where you are going! When you have kids, you are always looking out for
them. Watching where they are going, and what is going on. How many
times have you kept your child from running into something or someone
because they were not watching where they were going! Spiritually we
need to be on watching where we are going, and where we will end up.
