ITS THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEEEEAR! Good mornin & happy happy Friyay FB fam & followers! That "TIME OF YEAR" I am talkin about AIN'T CHRISTMAS! It is COLLEGE FOOTBALL SEASON! And all God's people said: GO GAMECOCKS!💪Come on now....SOMEBODY HELP MEEEE! That's not the only reason I am so excited about this weekend. We celebrate baptisms this Sunday here at Calvary Chapel of Lexington after 9am service....never gets old seeing people proclaim dying to their old selves and being resurrected with Jesus to a BRAND NEW LIFE🙌👏Amen? AMEN! So I hope you can join us on Sunday. BUT FIRST don't forget Friday night service tonight at 7p in the cafe. My big homey & gym partner, the running man himself, Pastor Joe Scott will be teaching tonight on Isaiah 57....YOU WON'T WANNA MISS THIS ONE! Another gorgeous, sun shiny day outside my window here on the Ranch. Gonna be a tad warmer today but still not so hot for August in SC! On to Proverbs 29!

In the past I was my own worst enemy....I still can be to this day. I have to remember and remind myself that apart from Jesus, I am a wretch and destined for destruction, however "I can do all things THROUGH Christ who strengthens me"(Phil 4:13)...for Him and for His glory🙏

Proverbs 29:23, "A man’s pride will bring him low,
But the humble in spirit will retain honor."

This Proverb contrasts the destructive nature of my pride, which leads to my humiliation and my downfall, with the lasting honor and exaltation that comes from a life of humility and a lowly spirit. It suggests that while pride is my weakness, humility is my strength that leads to my true honor. Which verse speaks to you today? I pray you hae a BLESS-ED Friday in the name of Jesus Christ our Leader & Savior🙏And I hope you can make it tonight! If you can't make it in person 🤒we will be streaming live here on Facebook😉

Proverbs 29

New King James Version

Happy Is He Who Keeps the Law

1 He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck,
Will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.

2 When the righteous [a]are in authority, the people rejoice;
But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.

3 Whoever loves wisdom makes his father rejoice,
But a companion of harlots wastes his wealth.

4 The king establishes the land by justice,
But he who receives bribes overthrows it.

5 A man who flatters his neighbor
Spreads a net for his feet.

6 By transgression an evil man is snared,
But the righteous sings and rejoices.

7 The righteous considers the cause of the poor,
But the wicked does not understand such knowledge.

8 Scoffers set a city aflame,
But wise men turn away wrath.

9 If a wise man contends with a foolish man,
Whether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace.

10 The bloodthirsty hate the blameless,
But the upright seek his [b]well-being.

11 A fool vents all his feelings,[c]
But a wise man holds them back.

12 If a ruler pays attention to lies,
All his servants become wicked.

13 The poor man and the oppressor have this in common:
The Lord gives light to the eyes of both.

14 The king who judges the poor with truth,
His throne will be established forever.

15 The rod and rebuke give wisdom,
But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.

16 When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases;
But the righteous will see their fall.

17 Correct your son, and he will give you rest;
Yes, he will give delight to your soul.

18 Where there is no [d]revelation, the people cast off restraint;
But happy is he who keeps the law.

19 A servant will not be corrected by mere words;
For though he understands, he will not respond.

20 Do you see a man hasty in his words?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.

21 He who pampers his servant from childhood
Will have him as a son in the end.

22 An angry man stirs up strife,
And a furious man abounds in transgression.

23 A man’s pride will bring him low,
But the humble in spirit will retain honor.

24 Whoever is a partner with a thief hates his own life;
He [e]swears to tell the truth, but reveals nothing.

25 The fear of man brings a snare,
But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be [f]safe.

26 Many seek the ruler’s [g]favor,
But justice for man comes from the Lord.

27 An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous,
And he who is upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.

GOOOOOD MORNIN FB FAM & FOLLOWERS AND HAPPY HAPPY FRIDAY EEEEVE! Had a wonderful time at church last night and the meal was DE-licious😋I'd be lying if I didn't confess to eating TWO big plates of Pastor Trav's meatloaf...THANK YTOU LORD & THANK YOU PASTOR TRAVIS🙏I almost didn't have ice scream....almost...BUT IT WAS HAGEN DAAZ😋It was a small(er) bowl🤏Anyhoo... enough about my supper last night! How about this weather, huh??Still beautiful, sun shiny, partly cloudy kinda day outside my window here at the Ranch....THANK YOU JESUS FOR THE COOLER TEMPS!🙏On to Proverbs 28:

My actions speak MUCH LOUDER than my words! I've often heard it said, "Preach the gospel daily and when necessary use words!" Amen? AMEN!

Proverbs 28:4, "Those who forsake the law praise the wicked,
But such as keep the law contend with them."

This Proverb emphasizes that morality is not neutral; one's actions & attitude toward God and His Word determines whether they side with evil or righteousness. I must choose who I will follow and my actions will make it clear to the outside world WHO I follow! "I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS! NO TURNING BACK! NO TURNING BACK!" Which verse speaks to you today? I pray you have a BLESS-ED Thursday in the name of Jesus Christ our Savior & Leader🙏

Proverbs 28

New King James Version

The Righteous Are Bold as a Lion

1 The wicked flee when no one pursues,
But the righteous are bold as a lion.

2 Because of the transgression of a land, many are its princes;
But by a man of understanding and knowledge
Right will be prolonged.

3 A poor man who oppresses the poor
Is like a driving rain [a]which leaves no food.

4 Those who forsake the law praise the wicked,
But such as keep the law contend with them.

5 Evil men do not understand justice,
But those who seek the Lord understand all.

6 Better is the poor who walks in his integrity
Than one perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

7 Whoever keeps the law is a discerning son,
But a companion of gluttons shames his father.

8 One who increases his possessions by usury and extortion
Gathers it for him who will pity the poor.

9 One who turns away his ear from hearing the law,
Even his prayer is an abomination.

10 Whoever causes the upright to go astray in an evil way,
He himself will fall into his own pit;
But the blameless will inherit good.

11 The rich man is wise in his own eyes,
But the poor who has understanding searches him out.

12 When the righteous rejoice, there is great glory;
But when the wicked arise, men [b]hide themselves.

13 He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

14 Happy is the man who is always reverent,
But he who hardens his heart will fall into calamity.

15 Like a roaring lion and a charging bear
Is a wicked ruler over poor people.

16 A ruler who lacks understanding is a great oppressor,
But he who hates covetousness will prolong his days.

17 A man burdened with bloodshed will flee into a pit;
Let no one help him.

18 Whoever walks blamelessly will be [c]saved,
But he who is perverse in his ways will suddenly fall.

19 He who tills his land will have plenty of bread,
But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough!

20 A faithful man will abound with blessings,
But he who hastens to be rich will not go unpunished.

21 To [d]show partiality is not good,
Because for a piece of bread a man will transgress.

22 A man with an evil eye hastens after riches,
And does not consider that poverty will come upon him.

23 He who rebukes a man will find more favor afterward
Than he who flatters with the tongue.

24 Whoever robs his father or his mother,
And says, “It is no transgression,”
The same is companion to a destroyer.

25 He who is of a proud heart stirs up strife,
But he who trusts in the Lord will be prospered.

26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,
But whoever walks wisely will be delivered.

27 He who gives to the poor will not lack,
But he who hides his eyes will have many curses.

28 When the wicked arise, men hide themselves;
But when they perish, the righteous increase.

BUENOS DIAS MI FAMILIA DE FACEBOOK Y MI GENTEEEEEE....GLORIA A DIOS PARA ESTA DIA🙏🙏🙏Hey y'all! Praise God for another day😉HOW ABOUT THIS WEATHER?? Is it fall y'all or what? THANK YOU JESUS! And just in time for Family Night Dinner Hour tonight down in the pavilion here at Calvary Chapel of Lexington. Kickoff is at 6pm and tonight's menu is Meatloaf with mashed potatoes....COME ON DOWN & LET'S EAT! If you've never been to CCLEX and always wanted to visit...TONIGHT IS YOUR NIGHT! After supper we waddle up the hill for Bible study in the sanctuary. We'll be in Psalm 75 tonight I believe....LOVE THE PSALMS! And of course after Bible study don't rush home bc we finish our night with an ice SCREAM social on the patio!💪🙏😋So come on down and get your belly & spirit full....amen? AMEN! On to Proverbs 27:

"Contentment"...Google defines it as , "a state of happiness and satisfaction." ie:"he found contentment in living a simple life in the country"....IMAGINE THAT; "a simple life in the country"...AW SHUCKS😁But seriously folks :godly contentment is my secret to peace in this world. Why "godly" you might ask? Glad you asked: because only through the peace that surpasses understanding by living in and through my relationship with Jesus am I ABLE to find contentment/satisfaction in this world. Case in point:

Proverbs 27:20, "Hell and Destruction are never full;
So the eyes of man are never satisfied."

If I try to "keep up with the Jones" or whoever...I WILL NEVER BE SATISFIED! I will always need a newer phone, better car, bigger house or higher paying job. True contentment is a learned skill rooted in God's faithfulness and provision through Jesus, rather than material possessions or circumstances It is a skill I am learnING! Which verse speaks to you today? I pray you have a BLESS-ED Humpday in the name of Jesus Christ our Provider & Sacrifice!🙏

Proverbs 27

New King James Version

My Son, Be Wise

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

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

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

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

5 Open rebuke is better
Than love carefully concealed.

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

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

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

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

10 Do not forsake your own friend or your father’s friend,
Nor go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity;
Better is a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.

11 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad,
That I may answer him who reproaches me.

12 A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself;
The simple pass on and are punished.

13 Take the garment of him who is surety for a stranger,
And hold it in pledge when he is surety for a seductress.

14 He who blesses his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning,
It will be counted a curse to him.

15 A continual dripping on a very rainy day
And a contentious woman are alike;
16 Whoever [c]restrains her restrains the wind,
And grasps oil with his right hand.

17 As iron sharpens iron,
So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.

18 Whoever [d]keeps the fig tree will eat its fruit;
So he who waits on his master will be honored.

19 As in water face reflects face,
So a man’s heart reveals the man.

20 Hell[e] and [f]Destruction are never full;
So the eyes of man are never satisfied.

21 The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold,
And a man is valued by what others say of him.

22 Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with crushed grain,
Yet his foolishness will not depart from him.

23 Be diligent to know the state of your flocks,
And attend to your herds;
24 For riches are not forever,
Nor does a crown endure to all generations.
25 When the hay is removed, and the tender grass shows itself,
And the herbs of the mountains are gathered in,
26 The lambs will provide your clothing,
And the goats the price of a field;
27 You shall have enough goats’ milk for your food,
For the food of your household,
And the nourishment of your maidservants.

GOOOOD MORNIN FB FAM & FOLLOWERS AND HAPPY HAPPY TUESDAY!! Boy howdy....HOW BOUT THIS WEATHER, HUH?? God is so so good to us! This is October weather in August....I'm gonna start drinking PUMPKIN SPICE COFFEE in honor of the cooler weather....NAAAAAHH🤢Anyhoo, yes it is a beautiful sun shiny day outside my window here on the Ranch and it IS cool(er). I hope we can all take a moment to enjoy some sunshine today and PRAISE GOD for the blessing🙏On to Proverbs 26:

"Did you hear what brother Ryan did?" "And Pastor steve said what??" We are a small close knit community here on the Ranch and like many communities gossip gets started and rumors go around camp....

Proverbs 26:22, "The words of a talebearer are like tasty trifles,
And they go down into the inmost body."

This verse illustrates for me how the appealing and tempting nature of gossip and rumors makes them easy to accept and repeat, even though they are harmful and deeply affect the listener's character and spirit. Like tempting desserts or snacky cakes, gossip can be enticing and hard to resist. Nothing good comes from gossip. I'll pray for you before I spread a rumor and even then I have to be careful who hears my prayer...Amen? AMEN! Which verse speaks to you today? I do ask all prayer warriors to be in prayer for U-Turn for Christ SC. Thank you in advance. I pray you have a BLESS-ED Tuesday in the name of Jesus Christ our Protector and Savior!🙏

Proverbs 26

New King James Version

Honor Is Not Fitting for a Fool

1 As snow in summer and rain in harvest,
So honor is not fitting for a fool.

2 Like a flitting sparrow, like a flying swallow,
So a curse without cause shall not alight.

3 A whip for the horse,
A bridle for the donkey,
And a rod for the fool’s back.
4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
Lest you also be like him.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
Lest he be wise in his own eyes.
6 He who sends a message by the hand of a fool
Cuts off his own feet and drinks violence.
7 Like the legs of the lame that hang limp
Is a proverb in the mouth of fools.
8 Like one who binds a stone in a sling
Is he who gives honor to a fool.
9 Like a thorn that goes into the hand of a drunkard
Is a proverb in the mouth of fools.
10 [a]The great God who formed everything
Gives the fool his hire and the transgressor his wages.
11 As a dog returns to his own vomit,
So a fool repeats his folly.
12 Do you see a man wise in his own eyes?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.

13 The lazy man says, “There is a lion in the road!
A fierce lion is in the [b]streets!”
14 As a door turns on its hinges,
So does the lazy man on his bed.
15 The lazy man buries his hand in the [c]bowl;
It wearies him to bring it back to his mouth.
16 The lazy man is wiser in his own eyes
Than seven men who can answer sensibly.

17 He who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own
Is like one who takes a dog by the ears.

18 Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death,
19 Is the man who deceives his neighbor,
And says, “I was only joking!”

20 Where there is no wood, the fire goes out;
And where there is no [d]talebearer, strife ceases.
21 As charcoal is to burning coals, and wood to fire,
So is a contentious man to kindle strife.
22 The words of a [e]talebearer are like [f]tasty trifles,
And they go down into the [g]inmost body.

23 Fervent lips with a wicked heart
Are like earthenware covered with silver dross.

24 He who hates, disguises it with his lips,
And lays up deceit within himself;
25 When [h]he speaks kindly, do not believe him,
For there are seven abominations in his heart;
26 Though his hatred is covered by deceit,
His wickedness will be revealed before the assembly.

27 Whoever digs a pit will fall into it,
And he who rolls a stone will have it roll back on him.

28 A lying tongue hates those who are crushed by it,
And a flattering mouth works ruin.
