Then shalt thou understand righteousness and justice, And equity, yea, every good path. For wisdom shall enter into thy heart, And knowledge shall be pleasant unto thy soul; Discretion shall watch over thee; Understanding shall keep thee: To deliver thee from the way of evil, From the men that speak perverse things; Who forsake the paths of uprightness, To walk in the ways of darkness; Who rejoice to do evil, And delight in the perverseness of evil; Who are crooked in their ways, And wayward in their paths: To deliver thee from the strange woman, Even from the foreigner that flattereth with her words; That forsaketh the friend of her youth, And forgetteth the covenant of her God: For her house inclineth unto death, And her paths unto the dead; None that go unto her return again, Neither do they attain unto the paths of life: That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, And keep the paths of the righteous. For the upright shall dwell in the land, And the perfect shall remain in it. But the wicked shall be cut off from the land, And the treacherous shall be rooted out of it.

This reading plan is from the Everyday Bible Commentary on Proverbs 1-2 and will help you go deeper in the Scripture. It is for anyone who has a desire to grow deeper in their understanding of the Scripture and strengthen their relationship with God by meditating on the deep wisdom of the book of Proverbs.
We live in a time where the church speaks the same language, uses the same jargon, and spouts the same perspectives as a world in darkness. The evangelical church has often been willing to reevaluate what it has long believed in response to the world’s social consciousness and moral outrage; yet the world has proven it has no conscience nor respect for what is genuinely moral according to Scripture.
Do you long for clarity in your decisions? This powerful three-day plan will help you seek God’s wisdom, recognize his voice, and boldly share your heart’s desires with him. Discover how to receive divine direction, hear his whispers, and align your prayers with his will. Start today—because God is speaking, and he’s waiting for you to listen.
