    (This podcast was previously published on December 8, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Three times in the early chapters of Proverbs, king Solomon warns the young men concerning the "strange women" and tells the young men what will happen to them if they choose to go after a "strange woman". Proverbs 5 1 My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding: 2 That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge. 3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: 4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword. 5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. 6 Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them. 7 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of MY mouth. 8 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: 9 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: 10 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger; 11 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, 12 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; 13 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me! 14 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly. 15 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well. 16 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets. 17 Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee. 18 Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. 19 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. 20 And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger? 21 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and HE pondereth all his goings. 22 His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins. 23 He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray. Death and destruction are the fate of the man who follows after "a strange woman". (Also see: Proverbs 6 & Proverbs 7) 💥💥💥 Proverbs 6 23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: 24 To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. 25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids. 26 For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life. 27 Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? 28 Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? 29 So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent. 30 Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; 31 But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. 32 But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. 33 A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. 34 For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance. 35 He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts. 💥💥💥 Proverbs 7 1 MY son, keep MY words, and lay up MY commandments with thee. 2 Keep MY commandments, and live; and MY law as the apple of thine eye. 3 Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart. 4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman: 5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words. 6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, 7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, 8 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, 9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: 10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. 11 (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: 12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.) 13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him, 14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows. 15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. 16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with ...

  • Wisdom is from God
    2026/04/20
    (This podcast was previously published on January 2, 2022) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... James 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. Daniel 2:20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are HIS: II Corinthians 1:12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward. Psalm 111:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do HIS commandments: HIS praise endureth for ever. The fear of the Lord is the understanding that God knows what is best for us. So when we read the Word of God or hear a word directly from God, we know that is the way to go and to go any other way is to our detriment and destruction. We would be afraid to go any other way after hearing a word from God. Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. Proverbs 8:14 (God says) Counsel is MINE, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength. Ephesians 1:8 Wherein HE (God) hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; Proverbs 2:7 HE (God) layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: HE is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. Proverbs 2:6 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of HIS mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • When you go in the way of God's wisdom, you will not stumble
    2026/04/21
    (This podcast was previously published on June 21, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... God knows future: Often people go forward and things happen and they say, "If only that hadn't happened it would have worked." Before making decisions, before going forward, ask God for HIS wisdom. We have a promise from God that if we ask God for wisdom, HE will give us wisdom. James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. John 5:30 Jesus said: I can of MINE own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and MY judgment is just; because I seek not MINE own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent ME. John 14:26 Jesus said: But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 16:13 Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come. Other scriptures: Proverbs 4:11-13 I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths. When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble. Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life. Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in HIS law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 💥💥💥💥💥

    (This podcast was previously published on June 18, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Proverbs 3 19 The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath HE established the heavens. 20 By HIS knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew. 21 My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion: 22 So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck. 23 Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. 24 When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. We have access to God's wisdom at all times and in all things. All we need to do is ask God for wisdom in the issues of this life. James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • Mini Podcast: In all thy ways acknowledge HIM, and HE shall direct thy paths (Proverbs 3:6)
    2026/04/17
    (This podcast was previously published on June 14, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. Everything depends on this: "Was it God telling me to do this thing?" How do you know it was God? If it was God telling you to do this, you can go forward in confidence. Joshua 1:9 God says: Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. If God confirms to you that "this" is what HE wants you to do, then you can go forward with assurance knowing the following. Proverbs 21:30-31 There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD. The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • Mini Podcast: Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. (Proverbs 3:7)
    2026/04/18
    (This podcast was previously published on June 16, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... So many people want to be wise of themselves and have other people praise them for their wisdom. Not only is this way very dangerous, but it can be deadly to us. God knows the future. If we try to plan out things without asking God, we can easily destroy ourselves with the unexpected. Proverbs 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Concerning wisdom: James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. God knows the future! So often a person who plans without consulting God will later say, "If only that hadn't happened." 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    (This podcast was previously published on June 13, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... If we have the Word of God on the subject, that is all we need! We can go forward securely when we have heard from God. James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. Proverbs 21:30-31 There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD. The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD. If God has told us something, there is no counsel against that Word. Example: A word from God to me concerning a court trial: "Don't testify" and how everyone around me fought against that word given to me by God. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • Mini Podcast: Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted (Psa. 107:17)
    2026/04/15
    (This podcast was previously published on, June 8, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Sometimes we are bringing problems upon ourselves. I did this as a new Christian. And I suffered more than I had to suffer until I recognized that I was causing the problem to come upon me. (On this Podcast I will tell of this situation and how I got free.) Psalm 107 4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in. 5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them. 6 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and HE delivered them out of their distresses. 7 And HE led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. 8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for HIS goodness, and for HIS wonderful works to the children of men! 9 For HE satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness. 10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron; 11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High: 17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted. 19-20 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and HE saveth them out of their distresses. HE sent HIS word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Remember to pray, asking God to give you wisdom before you do anything. James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog
