Reflections on Proverbs 28-29

Which proverb especially speaks to your life situation today?  How should you respond?

  • Justice – God ultimately brings justice (29:26). Leaders should seek justice (29:4, 14).  All people should live justly (28:5-7).  Are you striving to live justly?  Pray that your leaders would rule justly.  Look for justice ultimately from the Lord.
  • Fear and Trust – We ought to fear the Lord rather than men (28:14, 29:25). We ought to trust in the Lord rather than ourselves (28:25-26).  Who do you fear?  When are you tempted to fear people?  Who do you trust?  When are you tempted to trust in yourself?
