31 Day Proverbs Challenge

The Book of Proverbs is the 20th Book of the Holy Bible. It is the second book of the third section (called Writings). ₁

A proverb is a wise saying or a short and popular saying.₂

A secular proverb seeks to state a general (not absolute) truth. The proverbs in The Book of Proverbs has divine inspiration because they came from God. They are true and inspirational guiding us to eternal life. ₃

A repeated theme in this Book of Proverbs is Fear of God, meaning the submission to the will of God or a reverence to God. Plus how to gain wisdom, the Proverbs Challenge is a good way to read this Book of the Bible.

The Book of Proverbs gives you great insight on how to live your life according to what God wants, how to gain wisdom and much more.

There is exactly 31 Chapters in the Book of Proverbs. I took one chapter per day and made a blog post about it. See below each chapter. Please read that chapter first before reading the blog entry on that chapter. Feel free to comment on each chapter on your take too. So make sure you follow Courageous Christian Father so you won’t miss what I share about that chapter that day. I will do this for the next 31 days, taking one chapter per day.

If a month doesn’t have 31 Days you can just continue on into next month. If you miss a day you can double up the next or just extend it out on the reading.

If the month doesn’t have 31 days, you can double up a chapter one day in order to make up those days. For example ready Chapters 30 and 31 on the 30th. Or you can read chapter 31 on the 1st of the next month. February will you can adjust it differently if you wished to start reading in February. As you can see above, there are 7 months of the year with 31 days in it.

I first heard about this challenge when I was at one of the Johnny Hunt’s Men’s Conference in Woodstock, GA. Where they challenged the men to do this challenge. I finally got to it and now I am challenging you my fellow blog readers.

Don’t Read it to Just Read it!

Don’t read Proverbs just to read it or say I have read that book in the Bible. Take your time to reflect on each chapter in this book and each verse inside the chapters. Reflect and allow God to show you what is going on. The Proverbs Challenge is more of a reflection than just a conquer reading!
