Wood, Whisperers, and Wisdom

Sermon Application Questions

1. Is there some situation you are regularly in where you are tempted to “whisper” or to listen to “whisperings”? How might you best void sinning in that situation?

2. The second half of Proverbs 26:22 says that the words of a whisperer “go down into the inner parts of the body.” What do you think that is trying to communicate? What is God warning us about there?

3. Look up and read Proverbs 25:9. What does that proverb tell you about how you should handle something you feel needs to be addressed?

4. As we are going through this series in Proverbs are you finding it challenging or easy to keep in mind that this is God’s grace for us? What helps you to remember that God’s moral instruction is a gracious gift?
