It's the original sin. This came even before the fall of man. First there was the fall of Lucifer. Why did he go from an angel in God's Heaven to the being Satan, the devil of hell? Pride. The Scriptures tell us he wanted to ascend above God- he eyed the throne fit for only The Almighty and God put him in his place. And it's those proud eyes that get us every time too. We've seen it played out so many times. We do well on something and quickly become haughty about it. And it gives God sad eyes to see us think we can do things on our own without Him. And our quick downfalls bring us quickly back to Him. Keep your eyes on Him and don't let the pride of life bring you down.

Look right in Proverbs- review 6 things God hates
Seven abominations
Two hands blood spilling, witness who breathes lies,
Lying tongue, heart that makes plans of hate
Sows discord
(Chorus 1)
Proud eyes- Turn to 6:16
Why don't you go read those lines?
Proud eyes- you know that one's first- hey!
Then read 1:3-8 Obadiah
Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel 4- read there!
His pride was broken- tree upends
Isaiah 2:22- Psalms 2- How do we fare?
God hates to see us self-depend
8:13 Proverbs
(Chorus 2)
Proud eyes- Ezekiel 28
Isaiah in 14- kicked out
Proud eyes- God threw devil to the grave
Where he will have to stay in fire!
(Chorus 3)
Proud eyes- Turn to 4 in James
Why don't you go read those lines?
Proud eyes- You'll do this stuff today
Then we should actually say, "If God wills"
(Chorus 4)
Proud eyes- Turn to Psalms in 8 (Turn to Psalms in 8)
Why does God take heed or mind? (Why? Why? Why?)
Proud eyes- Philippians 2:8 (read!)
If Jesus lived humbly, so must I....
(fade)
Proud eyes- turn and live humbly....

Proverbs Woman (song)
I am always ready to talk about Hell and Heaven and how to avoid the former and gain entry into the latter (it's all through faith in Jesus' death and Resurrection- trust and follow Him!)- but today I wanted to do something different and special to honor mothers on Mother's Day! I am so thankful to God for the wonderful mother He blessed me with and I think she fits well the qualifications of Proverbs 31. I'm sure King Lemuel's mom was an inspiration to him when God inspired him to write down the words of that chapter. There are many descriptions of an excellent wife in this chapter- hardworking, takes care of her family, provides food for them, strong, wise, dignified and above all, she fears The Lord. Such a woman is to be praised. And praise The Lord for giving us mothers who do all these things for us and so much more. Happy Mother's Day!

(Proverbs 31:10-31)
Verse 1
Proverbs Woman- 31
Verse numbers 10 through 31
And I know jewels are worth far less- verse 10
A woman who fears The Lord
She'll get praised (and) crowned as her reward
Go and let her husband praise her as do their kids
Chorus
Oh, yes, she is wise
And with wisdom opens to say
Teaches how to be kind
And look how much she gains
And she has food 'cause she is hardworking
She is strong (strong)
And she wears dignity (wears dignity)
Proverbs Woman
Verse 2
Makes linen outfits for Ebay
Clothes her family, serves and takes care
She determines, buys a field and plants and sows
And her arms, she makes them stronger
No idleness ever found in her
While we're sleeping, she is fixing food for household
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3
Many women do well, ya'll
But she's standing above all
And she spreads her loving arms out to the poor
She looks well to her household
And she laughs, no fear of snow
I feel God made my mother in her form
(Repeat Chorus)
Oh, Proverbs Woman
Yes, she wears dignity
She is strong
Proverbs Woman
Yes, she is God's blessing
She is strong
Proverbs Woman
