Daily Bread Bible Reading for Monday 6 June 2022 || Today’s Scripture: Proverbs 27:1–9

My Son, Be Wise

27 Do not boast about tomorrow,
For you do not know what a day may bring forth.

²Let another man praise you, and not your own mouth;
A stranger, and not your own lips.

³A stone is heavy and sand is weighty,
But a fool’s wrath is heavier than both of them.

⁴Wrath is cruel and anger a torrent,
But who is able to stand before jealousy?

⁵Open rebuke is better
Than love carefully concealed.

⁶Faithful are the wounds of a friend,
But the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

⁷A satisfied soul ^[a]loathes the honeycomb,
But to a hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.

⁸Like a bird that wanders from its nest
Is a man who wanders from his place.

⁹Ointment and perfume delight the heart,
And the sweetness of a man’s friend gives delight by ^[b]hearty counsel.

Daily Bread Bible Reading for Monday 6 June 2022 || Insight

The book of Proverbs provides general insights into facing life’s challenges and is built on the important principle that “the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” (Proverbs 9:10). Why is this so critical? As the Creator, our God is best equipped to counsel us on how to live well within His world. So to begin the pursuit of wisdom, we must begin with a right attitude toward Him—a healthy respect or reverence. As pastor and teacher Warren Wiersbe wrote, “The better you know God, the keener will be your knowledge and discernment when it comes to the decisions of life.” Wisdom is the proper use of knowledge, and there’s no better source for knowledge than the One who is, in fact, the Source of all good things.
