    Lady Wisdom wants to help you. She offers knowledge and understanding day after day to all men. She will not always be available. If you reject her long enough, she will ignore you when you are in trouble. Make sure you accept and obey her gracious offer today.Why do you keep hurting yourself? When will you finally tire of pain? What will it take to make you try a different approach to life? Why do you listen to fools calling (Pr 1:10-19)? You must love death, because you make your choices in that direction (Pr 8:32-36).Lady Wisdom offers a happy and successful life to you. This glorious woman cries for your attention and affection. She is near you now. Can you hear her in the streets? She asks for you. This lady is Solomon’s powerful personification of wisdom as a woman.Lady Wisdom wants your attention. She will give you wisdom, which leads to the best possible life in this world and the next. All you have to do is take her offer. How does she state her offer? “How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you” (Pr 1:22-23).Most people suffer some sort of pain and trouble, year after year, generation after generation. They must love fear, grief, dysfunction, and destruction, because they never change. Parents divorce; the children say they will never divorce; the children end up divorced. A father commits adultery; his son vows he will never do such a thing; he commits adultery. Sin and suffering are endlessly perpetuated from one fool to the next.A grandfather is a drunkard; his children, grandchildren, and nephews swear they will never abuse alcohol; but several end up being drunkards like the grandfather. A foolish rebel argues and fights with his parents, finally being thrown out to fend for himself. He fights at school; he fights in the military; he fights with employees and employers. His wife leaves him; his children hate him; but he fights on to the very last breath.A little Hindu girl wonders why a million gods do nothing, why the neighbor’s cow is uncle Rahul, why her religion once encouraged widows to burn themselves to death at their husband’s funeral, why her nation worships the filthy Ganges, why she could be burned to death if her family does not pay a big dowry to the groom’s family, and why nations and people worshipping Jesus Christ are free from such terrible superstitions and live prosperously. Yet she grows up to be a big Hindu and teaches it to her daughters.A little American girl wonders why there are so many churches and why both pledge and money mention God, when her schools deny Jesus Christ, the Bible, and prayer; why laws protect Pit Bulls but kill unborn children, why she must study hard but the nation supports a welfare class of “disabled,” why two men or two women marry but nature denies reproduction, why she must pay back her school debt but the government does not pay back theirs, and why many of her classmates are on prescription drugs for life. Yet she sends her daughters to the same schools and does not attend any of the churches.The Creator God offers wisdom through the heavens He created (Ps 19:1-6), through the Bible He wrote (Ps 19:7-11), and through gospel preachers He sends to teach the Bible (Jer 3:15; Col 1:28-29; II Tim 3:16-17). Hear the proverb again: “Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets” (Pr 1:20). But even Christians today have turned away from sound doctrine that brings wisdom for fables and entertainment (II Tim 4:3-4).

    Inspiration means everything. The writer means little. God’s words are what count. Who wrote His words down barely counts. All scripture is profitable, including this verse. Do you understand the privilege and the responsibility when God reveals His words to you?Here is the inspired introduction to Proverb’s penultimate chapter. Using various writers, God is the Bible’s author. The prophet Agur was one of His men. He taught the proverbs in this chapter, and King Lemuel recorded his mother’s inspired words in the last chapter. These two chapters were appended to Solomon’s selected proverbs (Pr 1:1; 10:1; 25:1).Nothing is known about Agur beyond what is written in this chapter. He is unknown to the rest of the Bible and to history. But because God gave him perfect wisdom for these lessons of wisdom, they are recorded for you in the Bible. It is part of the divine library, in which God has preserved wisdom for prosperous living for His adopted children.This chapter has the words of Agur, in that God gave His words to Agur to form this part of the Bible. Inspiration is God’s miracle by which He puts His words in men to write down for later generations, including you (Ps 45:1; Is 30:8; II Pet 1:21). The words were inspired, for they are described here as a prophecy, which is a revelation from God.Agur’s father was Jakeh. We know nothing more about either man. But Proverbs teaches about fathers and sons. Fathers teach wisdom to their sons (Pr 22:6; 1:8; 4:1-4; 6:20). Sons humble themselves to their fathers’ words (Pr 2:1; 3:1; 4:20; 23:26). Father! Have you fulfilled your role? Son! Have you heard and retained your father’s doctrine?Agur spoke to Ithiel and Ucal; they were his students. God chose to convey wisdom from one generation to the next by verbal communication, based on His written word (Pr 10:21; 22:17-21; Mal 2:7; Rom 10:14-15; I Cor 1:21; II Tim 2:2). A part of your prayers should be for God to send preachers and bless their efforts (Luke 10:2; II Thes 3:1-2).Ithiel and Ucal were wise for seeking a teacher of truth and hearing his words. Though Agur’s words are blunt and plain, they made a very wise choice. Only a few men will separate from worldly activities to seek wisdom (Pr 18:1; Acts 17:11). Only a few ever have the blessing and joy of a preaching service like that under Nehemiah (Neh 8:1-12).Reader, are you like Ithiel and Ucal? Have you sought a preacher like Agur to instruct you in the truth of God, like Cornelius sought Peter (Acts 10:1-8,30-33)? Have you humbled yourself to that teacher’s instruction, like the Ethiopian eunuch did to Philip (Acts 8:26-40)? Once you find such a teacher of God’s words, do not despise or disobey his preaching, lest God judge you for it (Luke 8:18; I Thess 5:20; Ezek 33:30-33).Are you like Agur? Have you shared with others the certain words of truth like Elihu did with Job and his friends (Job 32:1-22)? King Solomon wrote the Proverbs in chapters 1-29 for you to learn and know the certain words of truth to share with others (Pr 22:17-21). Are you confident of the truth and want to help others like Luke wrote to Theophilus (Luke 1:1-4; Acts 1:1-5), for that is part of your Christian duty and privilege (I Pet 3:15).https://letgodbetrue.com/proverbs/index/chapter-30/proverbs-30-1/

    Anger ruins men. Angry men are foolish and dangerous. It is a curse on their lives. Anger causes them to fight and to sin in many different ways. Anger is blinding and destructive.An angry man cannot ignore offences (Pr 19:11). He reacts without thinking, which leads to fights (Pr 15:18). There is little peace to those around him, because he has either blown up recently or is likely to blow up soon. He reacts without thinking and says and does sinful things in the devilish heat of his foolish passion. Angry men are fools (Pr 14:29).If you want peace and righteousness in your life, stay away from an angry man. His profane way of responding to life will corrupt your good manners (Pr 22:24-25). God have mercy on the poor woman who married an angry man, and God have mercy on the poor children born to an angry man. Their lives are cursed with the devilish heart of their husband or father, who is just as likely to lash out and hit them as love and hug them.An angry man will lose his wife, children, and reputation. An angry man has little self-control, like an infant or a defenseless city (Pr 25:28; I Cor 3:1-3). His children wait for the day they can leave home to find the peace and security he never gave them. Of course, angry men are too stupid to figure this out until it is too late. Their children will not give many warnings, for they fear his wrath and blows. They nod and submit, despising their father in their hearts, until they leave and have a pleasant life without fear.Before women think this proverb is not for them, remember that Solomon in Proverbs, like the rest of the Bible writers, often refers collectively to both sexes as a man. This proverb applies with at least equal force against angry women, for anger should be viewed as even further beneath a woman’s dignity and nature than a man’s. A member of the gentler sex known for anger and fury is surely a perversion of humanity.Are you an angry man? Do you speak impulsively? Do you strike impulsively? Do you yell at your wife or children? Do you say harsh things that others question or condemn? Do others crave your presence? Are you known as a gracious or a difficult man? Do your wife and children tell you all they are thinking? Do you rule by intimidation or affection? Does your wife stay with you because she has to or wants to? Do your wife and children ever steer clear of you due to fear of your foul mood? Ask again, are you an angry man?Are you an angry man? Do you get worked up over minor things? Does your intensity match situations or exceed them? Let others be the judge. What do they think? Men can seldom see themselves as they truly are. Are you able to ignore offences easily and quickly? Or are you prone to bitterness? Do you get emotionally involved where emotion should be restrained? Do you flare up against criticism or correction? Can you thank a person quickly for correcting you for overreacting? Do you enjoy confrontations and look at them as projects? Do you turn minor differences into conflicts? Are you an angry man?Are you an angry man? Measure by the number of close friends you have, for most men will avoid an angry man. Measure by the stability and duration of your past associations and relationships. Measure by how much your children desire to be with you, whether young or old. After all, they know you best, and they are the most forgiving. Measure by whether others consider you a critical person or a gentle and meek person? Measure by whether you are often at strife with others or never? Are you an angry man?
