Proverbs 3:1-4 (ESV) My son, do not forget my teaching but let your heart keep my commandments; for the length of days and years of life and peace, they will add to you. Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. So you will find favor and success in the sight of God and man.
I love this Scripture because it tells us how to have favor and success.
1. We have to remember what God’s word says. 2. We have to obey or keep His commandments. 3. Remember when we do these things, they add years to our lives. 4. Not only do they give physical years, but they give us peace. 5. We will have favor and success in God’s sight, not man’s. 6. Yes, it says we will succeed in the sight of man, but if you have to pick between God and man, pick God! God wants you to have favor with God and man!
