In week 4 of our Winter Wisdom of the Proverbs Series, we will learn about the wisdom of communing with our Heavenly Father and fellow believers. Join our host, Dr. Deborah Harper, as we hear a teaching from Margaret as she shares the ways in which a person can act foolishly, and the steps you can take to ensure you walk with wisdom instead.
This worship segment comes from a moment filmed at Un-Chapel, held at Regent University in Virginia, where students were worshiping together. We pray you are blessed by this moment.
We enjoy receiving compliments from friends or even strangers. But how do we react when constructive criticism is given?
Dr. Dana teaches on friendship and the importance of having trusted friends who can speak uncomfortable truths in our lives. Referring back to scripture, as well as using examples from her own life, she encourages us to find value in sharpening each other like iron as we walk the Christian walk.
The Proverbs give very clear examples on the ways to be wise, as well as the actions of a foolish person. In this teaching, Pastor Margaret shares with us the importance of seeking out wise counsel, and the wisdom that results with daily communing with God, that helps ensure that we do not pick up the habits of a foolish person.
In this teaching, Dr. Deborah brings to our attention four things from Proverbs, chapter 4. These are different areas where the scriptures say we can apply wisdom: our heart, mouth, eyes, and feet. We hope this encourages you as you walk in wisdom in these areas, keeping your heart pure, by following the scripture’s instruction to “above all else, guard your heart,” and to preserve your mouth, guard your eyes, and ponder the path of your feet. In this way, we honor God!
God wants a deep and lasting relationship with us, imparting knowledge and understanding into our hearts so that we may walk according to His will and His ways, and so that we might also go and bless others. But how do we get there? The scriptures say that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A sincere and awesome respect for the Almighty God! Join the Hyatte Sisters as they discuss how we can grow further in the wisdom of our Heavenly Father, by studying and meditating upon His infallible, and enduring WORD.
When asked to give to someone in need where do you pull from first? Join Dr. Dana as she teaches on the poor and being generous with a pure heart, not withholding the best out of selfishness. Giving is wise, because we show that we are aware of heaven’s economy! And we know that the Lord will give to us every blessing we need.
The book of Proverbs is a wonderful treasure trove full of insights, instruction, understanding, and wisdom. In this teaching, Cindy shares with us examples from her own life on how she has put those treasures into practice with her relationship with God, her students, her five children and her husband. She encourages us to dig deeper to see how we can glean from even the seemingly small surprises God gives us through the scriptures and apply them to every aspect of life. When we offer of ourselves, we take time to treat the others around us well, with value, love, and honor, and that is the key component of wisdom!
Welcome back to a new season at Magnolia Place!
This Winter Season is on the “Wisdom of the Proverbs.”
Starting with our first week, the discussions revolve around the topic of “Trust.” Trusting God to give us the right words to speak. Trusting that God is the source of provision. Trusting the Lord to give us discernment. And putting our trust in the God who is everlasting!
Join Pastor Margaret as she teaches on the importance of structuring our thoughts so our words reflect our Heavenly Father! Zoya will welcome us into her kitchen as she prepares Vinegret, a winter dish from her home country, and share what it means to be rooted in Jesus Christ! Dr. Deborah will then share on the different kinds of wisdom and how we need to rely upon our Lord’s wisdom to walk the path of righteousness. We’ll wrap up this edition with a time of worship, lead by Gillian Harper with the song Everlasting God!
Enjoy and be blessed today!
