Proverbs 24:27

[The Knight]

Prepare your work outside And make it ready for yourself in the field; Afterwards, then, build your house.

[Lou Newton]

Prepare your work outside And make it ready for yourself in the field; Afterwards, then, build your house.

Thanks Karl:

I looked that verse up in the NIV:

²⁷ Put your outdoor work in order
and get your fields ready;
after that, build your house.

Most today want not only to build their house before they prepare their work, but they also put video games, social media and vacations before it too.

I seen these verses right before it:

²³ These also are sayings of the wise:

To show partiality in judging is not good:
²⁴ Whoever says to the guilty, “You are innocent,”
will be cursed by peoples and denounced by nations.
²⁵ But it will go well with those who convict the guilty,
and rich blessing will come on them.

²⁶ An honest answer
is like a kiss on the lips.

We can see from these verses that our nation is robbing itself of rich blessings and putting ourselves under a curse.

Many in the church want to condone homosexuality and men dressing like women and women like men. The Bible says these things are wrong and our nation puts itself under a curse when it condones these practices.
