Encouragement Study: Edition #20

Proverbs 24:13-18

Eat honey, dear child—it's good for you— and delicacies that melt in your mouth. Likewise knowledge, and wisdom for your soul— Get that and your future's secured, your hope is on solid rock. Don't interfere with good people's lives; don't try to get the best of them. No matter how many times you trip them up, God-loyal people don't stay down long; Soon they're up on their feet, while the wicked end up flat on their faces. Don't laugh when your enemy falls; don't crow over his collapse. God might see, and become very provoked, and then take pity on his plight.
-In this few verses, you have it all. Seek knowledge AND wisdom. Don't interfere with other people's lives. Take pity on even your enemy when they fall. God will bless it. Do these things and you will encourage others.
