Wisdom, Correction, Obedience, Growing in Jesus Christ

Proverbs 3:11 KJV
My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:


Proverbs 15:9-11 KJV
The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.
Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die.
Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?


Proverbs 23:12-13 KJV
Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.
Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.


Proverbs 11:24-25 KJV
There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.

Proverbs 21:13 KJV
Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.


Psalms 37:26 KJV
He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
