Proverbs 15:25 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God says...

“The Lord will destroy the house of the proud, But He will establish the boundary of the widow.” (Proverbs 15:25 NKJV)

Warning bells ring: Arrogance, beware! Pride, beware! The cost is hefty! Act of arrogance crosses the sacred line towards taking the place of God. It draws the ire of Him our sovereign Creator and Savior in whom alone we depend. He alone we worship! He warns, as it is written: "I will break your proud spirit by making the skies as unyielding as iron and the earth as hard as bronze. All your work will be for nothing, for your land will yield no crops, and your trees will bear no fruit." (Leviticus 26:19, 20 NLT)

But, when by grace of our Lord Jesus Christ through faith in Him, we surrender in meekness, our border is secured. He will establish us, like an orphan or a widow - that we are, consecrated for His divine purpose. We have God’s shield. And, He declares this promise - “Do not be afraid; you will not be put to shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated. You will forget the shame of your youth and remember no more the reproach of your widowhood. For your Maker is your husband-the Lord Almighty is his name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth."(Isaiah 54:4-5 NIV)

We have this assurance:” But the Lord is faithful. He will establish you and guard you against the evil one.” (2 Thessalonians 3:3 ESV)

And I say, AMEN!
