    Solomon kills Joab so he removes innocent blood from his kingdom.

    (This podcast was previously published on, December 12, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   One of the early acts done by Solomon when he was made king of Israel, was to kill Joab, the captain of David's army.   Joab had shed innocent blood out of his own desire to avenge his dead brother.   Abner, captain of Saul's army, tried to get Joab's brother to quit following him in one of the battles.  But the brother would not do this and continued with his plan to kill Abner.  So Abner killed this brother.   II Samuel 2   18 And there were three sons of Zeruiah there, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel: and Asahel was as light of foot as a wild roe.   19 And Asahel pursued after Abner; and in going he turned not to the right hand nor to the left from following Abner.   20 Then Abner looked behind him, and said, Art thou Asahel? And he answered, I am.   21 And Abner said to him, Turn thee aside to thy right hand or to thy left, and lay thee hold on one of the young men, and take thee his armour. But Asahel would not turn aside from following of him.   22 And Abner said again to Asahel, Turn thee aside from following me: wherefore should I smite thee to the ground? how then should I hold up my face to Joab thy brother?   23 Howbeit he refused to turn aside: wherefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear smote him under the fifth rib, that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place: and it came to pass, that as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.   Abner causes the battle to cease.   26 Then Abner called to Joab, and said, Shall the sword devour for ever? knowest thou not that it will be bitterness in the latter end? how long shall it be then, ere thou bid the people return from following their brethren?   28 So Joab blew a trumpet, and all the people stood still, and pursued after Israel no more, neither fought they any more.   Bitterness and vengeance in the heart of Joab:   II Samuel 3   1 Now there was long war between the house of Saul and the house of David: but David waxed stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker.   Saul is killed by the Philistines and his captain Abner first tries to make one of Saul's sons king but then Abner turns to David and pledges to follow David and help David.   II Samuel 3   17 And Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, Ye sought for David in times past to be king over you:   18 Now then do it: for the LORD hath spoken of David, saying, By the hand of my servant David I will save MY people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.   19 And Abner also spake in the ears of Benjamin: and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and that seemed good to the whole house of Benjamin.   20 So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men that were with him a feast.   21 And Abner said unto David, I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king, that they may make a league with thee, and that thou mayest reign over all that thine heart desireth.   And David sent Abner away; and he went in peace.   Joab, David's captain, hates Abner and follows to kill Abner.  David does not know Joab is doing this.   27 And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him quietly, and smote him there under the fifth rib, that he died, for the blood of Asahel his brother.   28 And afterward when David heard it, he said, I and my kingdom are guiltless before the LORD for ever from the blood of Abner the son of Ner:   29 Let it rest on the head of Joab, and on all his father's house; and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue, or that is a leper, or that leaneth on a staff, or that falleth on the sword, or that lacketh bread.   30 So Joab and Abishai his brother slew Abner, because he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.   David mourned in front of all the people for Abner.  So the people know it was not of David to kill Abner.  The tribes of Israel are then united with David as king and war ends between the tribes.   💥💥💥   Solomon reigns over the kingdom after the death of David and God gives Solomon wisdom above all men.   When you begin a kingdom, often a person will try to do that which makes him look good in the sight of other humans.  This was not the case with Solomon for God had given Solomon HIS own wisdom.   In God's wisdom, Solomon kills Joab.  This removes innocent blood from his kingdom and from the kingdom of David.   So Solomon begins his reign with a good foundation for his kingdom!   It was not Solomon's goal to please men.  Solomon was building on wisdom given to him by God HIMSELF.   You cannot build upon evil but must put away the evil that came before you.   I Corinthians 5   6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?   7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:   8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.   11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.   13 ... Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.   We do not kill that evil person with a sword .  We just remove ourselves from that evil person.   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    God fulfills HIS word, in HIS time and by this word the kingdom is established

    (This podcast was previously published on, December 11, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   God speaks a word and that word is sometimes fulfilled decades later.   In I Samuel, concerning the generations following Eli the priest, God said:   I Samuel 2   27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?   28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be MY priest, to offer upon MINE altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before ME? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?   29 Wherefore kick ye at MY sacrifice and at MINE offering, which I have commanded in MY habitation; and honourest thy sons above ME, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel MY people?   (The priests of the Old Testament were permitted to eat of the offering but only after the offering had been properly offered, burned with fire.  Then the priest dipped his meat hook into the offering and took the portion of cooked meat for himself to eat.  But the sons of Eli despised the offering by taking the meat before it was cooked because they liked the fat of the uncooked meat.  Thus the offering was not properly offered when they took that meat.  Today some evil ministers take of the offering for themselves to consume the people's offering on themselves.  To do this will bring penalty upon themselves in time.)   30 Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before ME for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from ME; for them that honour ME I will honour, and they that despise ME shall be lightly esteemed.   31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.   32 And thou shalt see an enemy in MY habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.   In the days of Solomon this was fulfilled:   I Kings 2   26 And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.   (Abiathar had been priest to David but he turned to be priest in house of Adonijah, David's son, who declared himself king when Solomon was appointed by God to be king. By doing this, he was "worthy of death.")   27 So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD, which HE spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.   (Solomon fulfilled a word of God which was spoken against the house of Eli before Solomon was born.  Solomon might not have known this word, but by doing what he did, he fulfilled this word.)   💥💥💥   II Peter 3   8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.   9 The Lord is not slack concerning HIS promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.   10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.   Every word spoken by God comes to pass in God's time.   💥💥💥 Before David died, his son, Adonijah declared himself to be king, replacing David.   I Kings 1   5 Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.   7 And he conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped him.   (Abiathar should have waited with David instead of following Adonijah, thus approving Adonijah by being seen in the presence of Adonijah.)   8 But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men which belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.   9 And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which is by Enrogel, and called all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Judah the king's servants:   10 But Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.   (Adonijah called to the feast those men he knew would approve him as "king".)   11 Wherefore Nathan (the prophet) spake unto Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast thou not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith doth reign, and David our lord knoweth it not?   (David did not know Adonijah had made himself king of Israel.)   12 Now therefore come, let me, I pray thee, give thee counsel, that thou mayest save thine own life, and the life of thy son Solomon.   13 Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?   32 And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.   33 The king also said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule, and bring him down to Gihon:   34 And let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and blow ye with the trumpet, and say, God save king Solomon.   36 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: the LORD God of my lord the king say so too.   37 As the LORD hath been with my lord the king, even so be HE with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.   39 And Zadok the priest took an horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon. And they blew the trumpet; and all the people said, God save king Solomon.   40 And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.   When they told Adonijah that David had made Solomon king ...   49 And all the guests that were with Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and went every man his way.   50 And Adonijah feared because of Solomon, and arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.   51 And it was told Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonijah feareth king Solomon: for, lo, he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear unto me to day that he will not slay his servant with the sword.   52 And Solomon said, If he will shew himself a worthy man, there shall not an hair of him fall to the earth: but if wickedness shall be found in him, he shall die.   53 So king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. And he came and bowed himself to king Solomon: and Solomon said unto him, Go to thine house.   💥💥💥   Today many try to put themselves into the ministry without being called by God for work in the ministry.   Hebrews 5   4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.   5 So also Christ glorified not HIMSELF to be made an high priest; but HE that said unto HIM, THOU art MY Son, to day have I begotten THEE.   From heaven today, Jesus calls HIS ministers to work in the New Testament church.   Ephesians 4   8 When HE (Jesus) ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.   11 And HE (Jesus) gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:   13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:   Many today in churches put themselves into the ministry without being called by Jesus from heaven.   They will be destroyed by God at the brightness of Jesus' coming.   II Thessalonians 2:8  And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of HIS mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of HIS coming:   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    Part 3: The Proverbs of Solomon

    (This podcast was previously published on, December 10, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   It works very well to read an entire chapter of Proverbs and highlight verses which you wish to get more deeply in you to help you in today's life.   This Podcast contains highlights of verses from Proverbs 15 through Proverbs 31 some of which are as follows:   Proverbs 15   1 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.   8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is HIS delight.   9 The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but HE loveth him that followeth after righteousness.   27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.   33 The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.   Proverbs 16   3 Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.   6 By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.   7 When a man's ways please the LORD, HE maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.   16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!   17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth HIS way preserveth his soul.   18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.   Proverbs 17   1 Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife.   5 Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished.   15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.   Proverbs 18   8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.   10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.   14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?   16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.  (spiritual gift from God)   22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.   Proverbs 19   8 He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good.   16 He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth HIS ways shall die.   21 There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.   27 Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge.   Proverbs 20   1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.   4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.   18 Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.   19 He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.   22 Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD, and HE shall save thee.   Proverbs 21   1 The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: HE turneth it whithersoever HE will.   3 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.   7 The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.   16 The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.   30 There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.   31 The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.   Proverbs 22   3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.   4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.   5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.   6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.   Proverbs 23   4 Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.   12 Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.   17 Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the LORD all the day long.   18 For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.   Proverbs 24   3 Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established:   4 And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.   19 Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked;   20 For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.   21 My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change:   Proverb 25   19 Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.   21 If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:   22 For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.   Proverbs 26   8 As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.   13 The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.   20 Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.   Proverbs 27   1 Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.   12 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.   17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.   20 Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.   Proverbs 28   1 The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.   4 They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.   5 Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things.   9 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.   Proverbs 29   4 The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.   5  A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet.   6 In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice.   18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.   25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.   Proverb 30   5 Every word of God is pure: HE is a shield unto them that put their trust in HIM.   6 Add thou not unto HIS words, lest HE reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.   Proverb 31   10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.   11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.   12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.   30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.   31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    Part 1: Proverbs: The wisdom God gives to Solomon

    (This podcast was previously published on, December 8, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   I Kings 3   5 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.   Solomon asked God to give him a wise heart whereby he could communicate with the great nation of Israel.   10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.   And God answered:   12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.   💥💥💥   When I read this as a new Christian in 1975, and when I understood that Solomon wrote Proverbs for us, I knew this contained a type of godly wisdom that I wanted as a Christian.  So I began reading The Book of Proverbs and meditating in many of the sayings to enable me to do these things.   💥💥💥   Proverbs 1   1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;   2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;   3 To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;   4 To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.   5 A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:   6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.   7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.   (Psalm 111:10  The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do HIS commandments: HIS praise endureth for ever.)   8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:   9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.   10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.   11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:   12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:   13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:   14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:   15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:   16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.   17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.   18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.   19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.   20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:   21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,   22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?   23 Turn you at MY reproof: behold, I will pour out MY spirit unto you, I will make known MY words unto you.   24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;   25 But ye have set at nought all MY counsel, and would none of MY reproof:   26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;   27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.   28 Then shall they call upon ME, but I will not answer; they shall seek ME early, but they shall not find ME:   29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:   30 They would none of MY counsel: they despised all MY reproof.   31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.   32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.   33 But whoso hearkeneth unto ME shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.   💥💥💥   I saw that which we must do is hear what God has to say and follow HIS instructions, doing that word!   I spent many months on different proverbs, putting these instructions into my own life by doing these instructions.   To record these on this Podcast and to speak of that which God showed me, was like to revisit an old friend!   💥💥💥   Proverbs 2   1 MY son, if thou wilt receive MY words, and hide MY commandments with thee;   2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;   3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;   4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;   5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.   6 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of HIS mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.   7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: HE is a buckler (shield) to them that walk uprightly.   8 HE keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of HIS saints.   💥💥💥   Proverb 3   5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.   6 In all thy ways acknowledge HIM, and HE shall direct thy paths.   7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.   13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.   14 For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.   15 She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.   💥💥💥   Included on this podcast are the following:   Proverbs of Solomon: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    Solomon warns the young men about "strange women"

    (This podcast was previously published on, December 7, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   Three times in the early chapters of Proverbs,  king Solomon warns the young men concerning the "strange women" and tells the young men what will happen to them if they choose to go after a "strange woman".   Proverbs 5   1  My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding:   2 That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.   3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:   4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.   5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.   6 Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.   7 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of MY mouth.   8 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:   9 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel:   10 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;   11 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,   12 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;   13 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!   14 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.   15 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.   16 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.   17 Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.   18 Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.   19 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.   20 And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?   21 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and HE pondereth all his goings.   22 His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.   23 He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.   Death and destruction are the fate of the man who follows after "a strange woman".   (Also see:  Proverbs 6 & Proverbs 7)    💥💥💥   Proverbs 6   23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:   24 To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.   25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.   26 For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.   27 Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?   28 Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?   29 So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.   30 Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;   31 But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.   32 But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.   33 A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.   34 For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.   35 He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.   💥💥💥   Proverbs 7   1 MY son, keep MY words, and lay up MY commandments with thee.   2 Keep MY commandments, and live; and MY law as the apple of thine eye.   3 Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.   4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:   5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.   6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,   7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,   8 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,   9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:   10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.   11 (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:   12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)   13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,   14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.   15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.   16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt.   17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.   18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.   19 For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:   20 He hath tken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.   21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.   22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;   23 Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.   24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.   25 Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.   26 For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.   27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    King Solomon: His greatest moment. And Solomon's downfall.

    (This podcast was previously published on, December 6, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   I Kings 3   3 And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.   4 And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.   5 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night:   and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.   6 And Solomon said, THOU hast shewed unto THY servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before THEE in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with THEE; and THOU hast kept for him this great kindness, that THOU hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.   7 And now, O LORD my God, THOU hast made THY servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child: I know not how to go out or come in.   8 And THY servant is in the midst of THY people which THOU hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.   9 💥 Give therefore THY servant an understanding heart to judge THY people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this THY so great a people?   💥💥💥 I Kings 3   10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.   11 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;   12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.   13 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.   14 And if thou wilt walk in MY ways, to keep MY statutes and MY commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.   💥💥💥   I Kings 3   15 And Solomon awoke; and, behold, it was a dream.   And he came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and offered up burnt offerings, and offered peace offerings, and made a feast to all his servants.   💥💥💥   The downfall of Solomon:   I Kings 11   1 But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;   2 Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods:   Solomon clave unto these in love.   3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.   4 For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.   5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.   6 And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.   7 Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.   8 And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.   9 And the LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,   10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods: but he kept not that which the LORD commanded.   💥💥💥   God places a penalty upon Solomon:   I Kings 11   11 Wherefore the LORD said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.   12 Notwithstanding in thy days I will not do it for David thy father's sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.   13 Howbeit I will not rend away all the kingdom; but will give one tribe to thy son for David my servant's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake which I have chosen.   14 And the LORD stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he was of the king's seed in Edom.   23 And God stirred him up another adversary, Rezon the son of Eliadah, which fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah:   26 And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda, Solomon's servant, whose mother's name was Zeruah, a widow woman, even he lifted up his hand against the king.   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    Part 6: Psalms of David (Prayers of David)

    (This podcast was previously published on, December 5, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   This Podcast contains Psalm 109 through Psalm 145.   Examples:   Psalm 109   21 But do THOU for me, O GOD the Lord, for THY name's sake: because THY mercy is good, deliver THOU me.   Psalm 124   1 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;   2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:   3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:   4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:   5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.   6 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.   7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.   8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.   Psalm 127   1 Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.   2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so HE giveth HIS beloved sleep.   3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is HIS reward.   4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.   5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.   Psalm 131   1 LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.   2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.   3 Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.   Psalm 133   1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!   2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;   3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.   Psalm 138   1 I will praise THEE with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto THEE.   2 I will worship toward THY holy temple, and praise THY name for THY lovingkindness and for THY truth: for thou hast magnified THY word above all THY name.   Psalm 139   1 O LORD, THOU hast searched me, and known me.   2 THOU knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, THOU understandest my thought afar off.   3 THOU compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.   4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, THOU knowest it altogether.   5 THOU hast beset me behind and before, and laid THINE hand upon me.   6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.   7 Whither shall I go from THY spirit? or whither shall I flee from THY presence?   8 If I ascend up into heaven, THOU art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, THOU art there.   9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;   10 Even there shall THY hand lead me, and THY right hand shall hold me.   11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.   12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from THEE; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to THEE.   13 For THOU hast possessed my reins: THOU hast covered me in my mother's womb.   14 I will praise THEE; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are THY works; and that my soul knoweth right well.   15 My substance was not hid from THEE, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.   16 THINE eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in THY book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.   17 How precious also are THY thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!   18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with THEE.   19 Surely THOU wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.   20 For they speak against THEE wickedly, and THINE enemies take THY name in vain.   21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against THEE?   22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.   23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:   24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.   Psalm 140   1 Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;   2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.   3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips.   4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.   Psalm 141   1 LORD, I cry unto THEE: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto THEE.   2 Let my prayer be set forth before THEE as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.   3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.   4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.   Psalm 142   (A Prayer of David when he was in the cave.)   1 I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.   2 I poured out my complaint before HIM; I shewed before HIM my trouble.   3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then THOU knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.   4 I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.   5 I cried unto THEE, O LORD: I said, THOU art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.   6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.   7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise THY name: the righteous shall compass me about; for THOU shalt deal bountifully with me.   Psalm 143   8 Cause me to hear THY lovingkindness in the morning; for in THEE do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto THEE.   9 Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto THEE to hide me.   10 Teach me to do THY will; for THOU art my God: THY spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.   11 Quicken me, O LORD, for THY name's sake: for THY righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.   12 And of THY mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am THY servant.   Psalm 144   1 Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:   2 My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and HE in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.   Psalm 145   1 I will extol THEE, my God, O king; and I will bless THY name for ever and ever.   2 Every day will I bless THEE; and I will praise THY name for ever and ever.   3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and HIS greatness is unsearchable.   4 One generation shall praise THY works to another, and shall declare THY mighty acts.   5 I will speak of the glorious honour of THY majesty, and of THY wondrous works.   6 And men shall speak of the might of THY terrible acts: and I will declare THY greatness.   7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of THY great goodness, and shall sing of THY righteousness.   8 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.   9 The LORD is good to all: and HIS tender mercies are over all HIS works.   10 All THY works shall praise THEE, O LORD; and THY saints shall bless THEE.   11 They shall speak of the glory of THY kingdom, and talk of THY power;   12 To make known to the sons of men HIS mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of HIS kingdom.   13 THY kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and THY dominion endureth throughout all generations.   14 The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.   15 The eyes of all wait upon THEE; and THOU givest them their meat in due season.   16 THOU openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.   17 The LORD is righteous in all HIS ways, and holy in all HIS works.   18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon HIM, to all that call upon HIM in truth.   19 HE will fulfil the desire of them that fear HIM: HE also will hear their cry, and will save them.   20 The LORD preserveth all them that love HIM: but all the wicked will HE destroy.   21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless HIS holy name for ever and ever.   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog
