Title: God’s Rules Preserve Your Life

Scriptures: Proverbs 19:16

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus everyone!  Today, we are looking at the verses in chapter 19 of Proverbs.  So many powerful and great words that at times, it's hard which word to choose.  But today, I found verse 16 very fitting.  Many people today hate rules - at times I am one of them.  It feels like rules restrict us and imprison us.  However there is a purpose why rules exists.  Proverbs 19:16 says, "Keep the rules and keep your life; careless living kills" Amen!  This is true indeed!  When people are just allowed to do what they want without rules, they have the tendency to do crazy things that end up losing their lives.  Rules strictly guide us to do what is right and preserve our lives.  So don't complain of the rules you have to follow each day.  Know that they are there to guide you in keeping your life.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for a wonderful word today.  Thank You for reminding us that rules exist for its purpose and the best rules to follow are the ones You set up.  Help us Lord to have a humble heart and teachable one to follow and obey Your rules.  Give us the wisdom to choose to follow even if everyone or everything seems to point to a carefree life.  In Jesus' Name, Amen!

Memory Verse Share for today:

Proverbs 19:16 (The Message Version)

Keep the rules and keep your life; careless living kills.

It's so tempting to live a life without rules, to do whatever you want whenever you want to, but remember rules are there for a purpose and the Bible tells us that it is our guide to keep our lives. The enemy tells us to disregard rules and live a careless life, to be free!  But in truth, a careless life leads to death.  So when you are faced with rules or new ones that will require you to adjust and change, remember they exist for a reason.  The best rules to follow are God's rules for His rules preserve our lives.

Have an amazing day with Jesus everyone!
