Proverbs 12 - The Righteous explores his neighbor so he knows what will edify - Walter Cummins

The righteous person will study his neighbor. He will explore his neighbor to see what would bless and help that neighbor. Whereas the wicked will lead his neighbor astray. He leads him astray. This idea is not foreign to the Book of Proverbs nor to other scriptures in the Word. Matter of fact you read the same idea in many other places, that the righteous explores his neighbor or tries to find out what would help and bless that individual, instead of just spilling his mouth; instead of having the run of the mouth where he just tears him up. He explores him in order to help and to bless him. He has tremendous insight into an individual. He’s empathetic. Whereas the wicked simply misleads or tears down that neighbor. This righteous man has insight in order to bless his neighbor. He’s empathetic with him.

In Proverbs 15, you have a similar idea in verse 28. Where it says, “The heart of the righteous studieth to answer:…”; 15:28.

Proverbs 15:28a: The heart of the righteous studieth [or meditates] to answer:

In other words, he doesn’t just flip an answer off the top of his head, but he studies his neighbor, or he studies a situation before he answers.

The power filled heavenly calling - Walter Cummins

That's the power of God's work. And in that it's not just a form of godliness, but its power. It's not just a word, its power and operation. It's a great challenge to us to walk in this day and time, when you look at most people in this world. And they walk totally by the five senses, sciences, we all need wonderful. But it's totally since knowledge oriented. They don't see the spiritual side of it. And to understand everything in its fullness, you have to see the spiritual side. It's great to know the wonderful scientific things that are done. But it's also great to know the spiritual side of it too. And what's really happening in our world, and to be on top of it, because we're sons of God, filled with power, walking by the Spirit. And we can manifest that power daily, not just on Sunday, not just on Thursday night prayer meeting time, but daily in your businesses, your profession, your schools, your jobs, your homes, wherever you are. God in Christ is still in you. And you've got that power available to walk

Living Victoriously in God's Love

Look at 2 Corinthians chapter 5. 2 Corinthians chapter 5 please. Look at verse 14. For the love of what? Christ constraineth us.

The love of Christ constraineth us. He constraineth us. The love of Christ.

You see whenever the love of God is enthroned in your heart when you have allowed yourself to be soaked and saturated in the love of God then it's the love of God that constrains us because we thus judge that if one died for all therefore all are dead then we're all dead. Literally the text reads that one died for all therefore all died in Him in Christ Jesus. And he died verse 15 he died Jesus Christ for what? All that they which live they which live should henceforth no longer live unto themselves.

We're still living right? We shouldn't live unto ourselves but unto what? Him, but unto Him which died for them and he did what? Right. Rose again in Ephesians chapter 4 Ephesians 4 listen to this Ephesians 4 15 but speaking the what? Truth in love speaking the truth in what? Love may grow up in Him in all things grow up in Him in all things which is the head even whom? Christ to grow up in Him we just have to get melted people into God's cast of love because Christ did not please Himself He pleased His Father.

 

Proverbs 12 - Wicked vs Righteous - The root of the righteous gives - Walter Cummins

The righteous is always out giving, his root is to give.

Proverbs 12:14: A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth:…
First you have a root, the root gives. Then you have what? Fruit.

Proverbs 12:14: …the fruit of his mouth, and the recompence [or reward] of a man’s hands shall be rendered unto him.

After you have fruit, what do you get? Rewards. So you have a root, then you have fruit, then you have reward. If you root: if you don’t have any root or your root is shallow, it’s wicked, you’re only out to take, to see what you can get, to steal, to kill, to destroy, then your fruit is going to be corrupt and there’s no rewards. But if you’re the righteous, then your root…the root of the righteous gives. That’s the attitude of the righteous, he’s established. Because giving is a principle, giving equals receiving. As you give you receive. So if your root, that’s your root, you’re giving, then what’s your fruit? It’s going to be good fruit. And you’re going to be satisfied with that fruit. And as a result there’s going to be what? reward. Isn’t that beautiful? The righteous versus the wicked. And who wins again? The righteous. Right!

The Word of God alters Circumstances

Jesus said, don't kid me, I know better. The only way I know of keeping an abundance of that
which you're giving out being filled and flowing within is by speaking in tongues. In your private life. Then it says, out of his belly shall flow rivers, torrents, gushed torrents of living waters. You keep enough of this stuff in you and keep it hot inside.
The heat will manifest itself outside. I think this is the outreach from one individual
to another or two groups of people. And it's just the power of God working in your heart
and life. And it still is God's word when that's believed. That's what alters circumstances.
Circumstances do not alter God's word. The word alters circumstances. Well, think about it.

The fantastic potential latent within a believer. The fantastic ability resident within you to bless and to be a blessing and to reach out. Because you're always giving out something. So you might as well renew your mind and let
this Christ within you just shine forth and reach out.

Proverbs - Fools-Wicked-Lazy : Wise-Righteous-Diligent - Walter Cummins

Now, there are three categories of people in the Book of Proverbs that you’ll see come up again and again. And I’m talking about three categories who have blown it, who are not on the Word. One of them is fools, the second one are the wicked and the third category are the lazy. You have the fools, the wicked and the lazy. In contrast to that you also have the wise, the righteous and the diligent. The wise, the righteous and the diligent. Now God doesn’t want you to be a fool or to be wicked or to be lazy. He wants you to be a wise person, a righteous person and a diligent person.

September 2, 1981 - Letter to the Way Corps

Therefore, it is the love of Christ that constraineth you. You Way Corps no longer
live for yourself but you live for Him. As you walk in fellowship with Jesus Christ,
you will be in fellowship with God, and you will evidence and manifest that you
are a new creation with a new nature IN Christ and that ALL old things are passed
away; behold, ALL things are become NEW. God, who reconciled you, brought
you back to Himself by Jesus Christ, has given to you the ministry of
reconciliation, including the Word of reconciliation, so that you could be a
successful ambassador for Christ, reconciling others to God. You represent and are
the righteousness of God when you are IN Christ Jesus. Yes, you are a worker
together with God. Corps, what a joy and privilege, yet what an awesome
responsibility in the NOW of this our times, the day of salvation! So you have to
walk and work, that the ministry be not blamed and that you stand approved as a
minister of God. Live and speak the Word...

Proverbs 8:1-36 - Wisdom Personified - Walter Cummins

Proverbs 8:1-5 KJV

Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.

She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.

Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.

O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.

Proverbs 6:20-7:27 - The Strange Woman - Walter Cummins

Proverbs 6:20-24 KJV

My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

Rotherham

Observe thou, my son, the commandment of thy father, and do not decline from the instruction of thy mother:

Bind them upon thy heart continually, fasten them upon thy neck;

When thou walkest abroad, it shall guide thee, when thou sleepest, it shall watch over thee, when thou wakest, it shall speak to thee:

For, a lamp, is the commandment, and, the instruction, a light, and, the way of life, are the reproofs of correction:

To keep thee from the wicked woman, from the flattery of the tongue of her that is a stranger.
