Proverbs 3, Don't be fooled, prosperity or healing is not in "Sowing Seed"

Proverbs 3 can be divided into five sets as follows:
1. Actions and Consequences 3:1-12
2. The delights of wisdom 3:13-20.
3. The practical benefits of Wisdom 3:21-26.
4. Generosity and good neighbourliness 3:27-31
5. Concluding Summary

Today, I'll focus on #SetOne Proverbs 3:1-12
This part presents six pairs of specific actions and the corresponding consequences or outcome. Your healing or prosperity is in the following:
Being obedient to God's commands; Love and Faithfulnes; Trusting and relying on God; Reverence for God; Honoring God with what He's blessed you with; Gladly accepting the Lord's discipline.

Come with me, let's explore.

#1. Do not forget My teaching, keep My commands in your heart (obey and follow) vs.1.
Outcome: Prolonged life and prosperity vs. 2.

#2. Let love and faithfulness never leave youvs. 3.
Outcome: You will win favor and good name with God and man vs.4.

#3. Trust God and rely not on you own understanding vs.5

#4. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil vs.7
Outcome: It will bring health into your body and nourishment to your bones vs.8.

#5. honor the Lord with your wealth, with firstfruits of ALL your crops vs.9.

#6. Do not despise the Lord's discipline and do not resent His rebuke vs.11.
