Proverbs 30:24-28 – LEARNING FROM THE ANIMALS

These small animals have much to teach us.

I CAN BE PREPARED LIKE AN ANT – Vs. 25

Just as an ant is prepared for winter, I can be prepared for any situation, when I learn and heed the Word of God. Matthew 7:24-27

I CAN BE PROTECTED LIKE A CONEY (ROCK BADGER) – Vs. 26

The Coney hides in the rocks. I can hide in the Lord as my rock. Psalm 27:4-5, Psalm 18:2

I CAN PARTICIPATE LIKE A LOCUST – Vs. 27

The locust is often part of a swarm. Locusts operate as a team. I have a team of which I am a member. It is called the church, or the family of God. God has called me to participate on His team. Hebrews 10:24-25, Ephesians 2:10

Although the locust has no king, we serve the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! Colossians 1:18

I CAN POSSESS LIKE A SPIDER – Vs. 28

A spider (lizard) can possess a king’s palace, but does not deserve to be there.

I possess Heaven if my faith is in Christ. And I don’t deserve to be there! John 14:1-6
