Proverbs 19 : 1-9
KJV


1 Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity,
than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
2 Also, that the soul be without knowledge,
it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.
3 The foolishness of man perverteth his way: 

and his heart fretteth against the Lord.
4 Wealth maketh many friends;
but the poor is separated from his neighbour.
5 A false witness shall not be unpunished,
and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.
6 Many will intreat the favour of the prince:
and every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.
7 All the brethren of the poor do hate him:
how much more do his friends go far from him?
he pursueth them with words, yet they are wanting to him.
8 He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul:
he that keepeth understanding shall find good.
9 A false witness shall not be unpunished,
and he that speaketh lies shall perish.
   


Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

May we receive Your Spirit so that we win the victory
over ourselves and over the world around us,
not with our human crudeness, force, and clamor,
but only through Your Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ.
Help each of us in our own particular situation.
We all know there is much evil around us;
there is much we must fight.
But in Jesus’ name we want to plunge right in,
right into the world,
right into whatever suffering is meant for us in the
midst of the evil that is not yet overcome.
In Jesus’ name we go toward the great victory
that will come when all who are granted Your
joy will praise You with all their hearts,
O Father in heaven.


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
