*Proverbs 11:4*
_Key Bible Text:_
*Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.* Proverbs 11:4 (KJV)
_Bible Insight_
Proverbs 11:4 Riches won't help on the day of judgment, but right living can save you from death. (NLT)
Proverbs 11:4 When God is angry, money won't help you. Obeying God is the only way to be saved from death. (CEV)
Proverbs 11:4 is a classic comparison between riches and righteousness.
Observe that both demands to be chased or pursued.
Observe that both requires being intentional and determined.
Observe that you cannot become rich just by chance nor do you become righteous accidentally.
Proverbs 11:4 therefore presents the advantage of the pursuit of righteousness over the pursuit of riches.
Righteousness will defend you in the day of God's Judgment. But riches as vital as it is on earth, will leave you totally helpless on the day of Judgment.
Justice maybe to the highest bidder on earth, but in God's law court, no amount of riches can save you- only righteousness will do!
_MEDITATION:_
*"As death will come to all, so will judgment. Riches cannot save you either from death or from judgment."*

*INTEGRITY*
_Key Bible Text:_
* The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.* (Proverbs 11:3 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Proverbs 11:3 The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity. (NIV)
Proverbs 11:3 Honesty guides good people; dishonesty destroys treacherous people. (NLT)
Integrity is in short supply these days. Integrity can be described as an endangered habit or attribute.
Many no longer think highly of it. Some of those who do, only pay lip service to it. They speak well of it but conveniently do the contrary.
Yet, God who does not change, calls on the upright to be guided by integrity.
And God still warns that dishonesty or lack of integrity will destroy.
Truly, our world is getting more and more "chaotic" because lack of integrity is already taking a destructive toll on it.
_MEDITATION:_
*"If only one in ten people has integrity, strive to be that one person."*

*PRIDE*
_Key Bible Text:_
*When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.* (Proverbs 11:2 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Proverbs 11:2 When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. (NIV)
Pursue humility. Eschew pride. Pride will lead to disgrace. It is just a matter of time.
Wisdom comes from humility. Practice humility. Use every opportunity to master humility.
Certain opportunities are more humility boosting than others.
When you are maltreated or unjustly accused: Humility can be practiced by not taking it personal. Make excuses for the offender and take initiative to resolve the matter amicably.
When you have been insulted: this is another perfect opportunity to handle the situation calmly and graciously. This is a way to boost your humility.
Ignore certain disrespect or at least never take it personally.
Don't let your position or status become a big deal. Intentionally relate with others without paying mind to your office or status.
_MEDITATION:_
*"Practice humility with every opportunity that you get. When you keep practicing it, you become it"*

*A False Balance*
_Key Bible Text:_
*A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.* (Proverbs 11:1 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Proverbs 11:1 Scales of deceit are hated by the Lord, but a true weight is his delight. BBE
Proverbs 11:1 A deceptive balance, is an abomination to Yahweh, but, a full weight, is his delight. (Emphasized Bible)
Proverbs 11:1 The LORD hates anyone who cheats, but he likes everyone who is honest. (CEV)
Think about it. Let's use business settings:
.
Business & Finance:- How do you measure or present your products and services to customers/clients? Do you apply decent business principles or lie or over-exaggerate in order to impress and sell?
How about relationships? Do you intentionaly mislead or cheat or betray those who care about you? Do you pretend to love or care about someone while all along targeting what to get from them?
Think about this.
_MEDITATION:_
*"The LORD detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with him."* (Proverbs 11:1) NIV

*Bring Forth Wisdom*
_Key Bible Text:_
*The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out.* (Proverbs 10:31 (KJV)
_Bible Insight_
Proverbs 10:31 (BBE) The mouth of the upright man is budding with wisdom, but the twisted tongue will be cut off.
Bring forth wisdom so that men do not cut you out, cancel you or delist you from their list of options. Men need guidance and direction. Men need a source of strength and light. Men need resource persons. Be a person that can bring that necessary wisdom.
Let your words bring wisdom. Take time to build the right content and mindset so that when you speak, light and life will springforth.
Don't be loud or lousy but be so full of light that when you show up, darkness is discarded.

*SHALL NEVER BE REMOVED*
_Key Bible Text:_
*The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.* (Proverbs 10:30 (KJV)
_Bible Insight_
Proverbs 10:30 (BBE) The upright man will never be moved, but evil-doers will not have a safe resting-place in the land.
The upright man will never be moved. That's God's word and it will always be true no matter what the enemy is trying to do on God's earth!
Laws may change, evil may abound, wicked men may rise to power, money maybe all that is needed to buy justice, but still in the midst of all this, God's word will prevail.
The upright man will never be moved! He will walk securely. He will walk with confidence. He will never walk alone. God will walk with him, God will be with him, and in the end, God will receive him.

*LONGEVITY*
_Key Bible Text:_
*The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.* (Proverbs 10:27 (BBE))
_Bible Insight_
The fear of the Lord lengthens, increases, stretches, adds to, prolongs your life.
To prolong one's days is to prolong one's life. Hence the greeting or prayer, "May your days be long!" And to a ruling mornach one could say, "May your reign be long!"
This is more than just a prayer to live like Methuselah. It is not just about the longevity of one's life but the quality of one's life.-- the impact, the influence and affluence.
The key to such glorious living is tied to a lifestyle that regards, obeys, honours, defers to, and imbibes the fear of the Lord.
_MEDITATION:_
*“And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:"* (Isaiah 11:2-3 (KJV))

*WHO ARE YOU SENDING?*
_Key Bible Text:_
*Like acid drink to the teeth and as smoke to the eyes, so is the hater of work to those who send him.* (Proverbs 10:26 (BBE))
_Bible Insight_
You must know the kind of persons you have on your team?
Know those who love work and deliver as expected nine out of ten times.
Know those who do not show great enthusiasm but still push themselves to deliver as expected seven out of ten times.
Know those who will generally perform poorly, or full of excuses more often than none.
If you know the capacity of your team members, you will know how best to delegate tasks to them.
The real work is in getting to know the various capacity of your team mates. This requires patience, discernment, emotional intelligence, understanding, and a teachable spirit.
_MEDITATION:_
*“Before you blame who you sent, investigate your rationale for sending the person in the first place"*

*The wicked will be wiped out*
_Key Bible Text:_
*As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.* (Proverbs 10:25 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Wickedness has an expiry date. No man will live on earth forever. But men are created to live or die eternally.
If your life has received and walked in the righteousness of God, your days on earth will be blessed and your eternity with God will be sure.
But if you live in the wickedness of sin, your days on earth will be terrible and your life in eternity will be superlatively horrible. This is called second death, hence you will be no more only in the sense that you cease to exist as far as God is concerned, eternally separated from God.
