Three-D Discipleship

Ep 199 - The Wisdom Way: Fear of the Lord is the path to true wisdom. Proverbs 11:2

As we dive deeper into the book of Proverbs this week, let's reflect on the call to humble ourselves before God. Fear of the Lord is the path to true wisdom—it reminds us to admit our limitations, trust in God's provisions, and build confidence not in ourselves, but in Him. Grace helps us see our failures, knowing they don’t define us, but remind us that He is our source of strength.

 

"When arrogance comes, disgrace follows, but with humility comes wisdom." - Proverbs 11:2

 

Gospel Response: - Admit no security. - Stop trying to gain it or manipulate it. - Embrace complete security.

Ep 198 - The Wisdom Way: Fear God to Gain Wisdom and Discipline. Proverbs 1:7

The Humble will Fear the Lord. The Wise and disciplined will Live without Dread. Discipline is not mean, a lack of discipline is cruel. If we don't fear God, we most likely believe we are God. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge because it's the beginning of one learning from the creator. We become wise when we fear the foolishness of not being connected to God. We become disciplined when we fear the lack of correction from God.

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline." – Proverbs 1:7

Gospel Response: Fear the Lord, for in Him is the beginning of wisdom. 🕊️ Let us humble our 'right' to embrace His greater wisdom, and humble our 'wrong' to receive His loving discipline. True strength is found in surrendering both to His guidance.

Ep 197 - Worship Series: What is Christian Worship? Ephesians 5:19

Christian worship reveals God to be worth more than all else through allegiance, sacrifice, and praise. Christian worship is not music, but music can be worship. Biblical praise lifts up God in worship and others in faith. 🙏 Let’s commit to worshiping God with our lives daily, allowing music to enhance our connection to Him, but not define it. 🙏

 

Gospel Response: 🎶 Why Do You Sing? 🎶 Is your voice lifted in Psalms, Old and New Worship Songs, or Spiritual Songs? Is singing a weapon in your arsenal against Satan, or a weapon of Satan?
