Proverbs 20:1-9

Listen to Proverbs 20:1-9
1 Wine is a mocker and beer a brawler; whoever is led astray by them is not wise.
2 A king’s wrath strikes terror like the roar of a lion; those who anger him forfeit their lives.
3 It is to one’s honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.
4 Sluggards do not plow in season; so at harvest time they look but find nothing.
5 The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out.
6 Many claim to have unfailing love, but a faithful person who can find?
7 The righteous lead blameless lives; blessed are their children after them.
8 When a king sits on his throne to judge, he winnows out all evil with his eyes.
9 Who can say, “I have kept my heart pure; I am clean and without sin”?

I Will Give You A Mouth and Wisdom, C
I Will Give You A Mouth and Wisdom, C
Jeff Johnson

Haven you ever found yourself in a situation when you have said too much or put your foot in your mouth? We have all been there. Your listening to Sound Doctrine with Pastor Jeff Johnson. On this episode pastor Jeff wraps up a study in proverbs chapter 20. We will see that we all blow it with our speech, and the Apostle Peter was no exception. Even after he denied the Lord 3 times, Jesus still looked upon him with compassion and love. Perhaps you have Peters issue with your mouth. Today Pastor Jeff will encourage us to seek the Lord on this matter and he will give us his wisdom on the conclusion of the message, “I will give you a mouth and wisdom.”

The bible says every good and perfect gift is from above…one such gift is the gift of wisdom. This is sound doctrine, the radio ministry of Jeff Johnson Pastor of Calvary Chapel Downey, in Downey, Ca. On this episode Pastor Jeff continues his message from Proverbs chapter 20. We are learning that the mouth God has given us, is meant to be used wisely. Flying off the handle with our speech gets us into trouble. We wont be respected and people wont want to hear what we have to say. Today pastor Jeff encourages us to seek out Gods wisdom in the message, “I will give you a mouth and Wisdom”

Thanks for joining us on this edition of SD with Pastor Jeff Johnson. The mouth has been given to us to communicate to man and to God. We can use it to bless and worship the Lord and unfortunately curse our fellow man. Today on Sound Doctrine, Pastor Jeff looks at Proverbs chapter 20. We begin in verse 1 and in it, we will see that mans mouth can get him into serious trouble, by what he says, and even what he puts in it! Over this message we will see that alcohol is a substance that can create a whirlwind of trouble for us. Join Pastor Jeff for a new message titled, “I will give you a mouth and wisdom”
