BIBLE PASSAGE: Proverbs 1; 3-4
MEMORY VERSE: Don’t be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and turn away from evil. Proverbs 3:7
BIG PICTURE QUESTION: What does God know? God knows everything about the past, present, and future.
CHRIST CONNECTION: Solomon’s proverbs encourage God’s people to trust in the Lord. Jesus trusted in God His Father throughout His life on earth, all the way to His death on the cross for our sins. He rose again and continues to lead us to love and trust God the Father.
God’s gift of wisdom to King Solomon did not end with Solomon; he shared this wisdom through his proverbs. Solomon wrote in Proverbs 1:2 that these words were for learning wisdom and discipline, understanding insightful sayings, receiving instruction, and teaching the inexperienced. Through all the insight he gained as the wisest man on earth, he came back to this truth: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge” (Proverbs 1:7).
Fearing the Lord means honouring Him as holy and revering Him as God alone. Solomon recognized the folly of a life lived in his own strength and wisdom. He knew that pursuing the Lord through genuine trust and obedience is the only way to live a life that matters.
Invite your children to see the beauty of pursuing God’s ways and trusting Him, both for the promise of His presence and the wisdom He provides in our everyday lives. Life everlasting begins when we come to faith in Him!
