The Six Instructions

Sep 8, 2025    Nathan Smalley

What does it look like to walk in the fear of the Lord? In this episode of The Living Logos, we turn to Proverbs 3:1–12, where Solomon writes to his son with a father’s heart. Here he lays out six instructions that serve as guideposts for godly living: remembering God’s Word, clinging to love and faithfulness, trusting the Lord over our own understanding, shunning pride and evil, honoring God with our increase, and accepting His loving discipline. Together, these truths paint a picture of what it means to live in reverence before God—a life marked by humility, obedience, and blessing.
