Overlooking Offenses: A Biblical Perspective

Sunday’s Memory Verse for 5/11/25

“A man’s wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to OVERLOOK AN OFFENSE.” Proverbs 19:11 NIV

Have you ever been offended by what someone said or did? Of course! We all have! But did you know that God tells us to overlook an offense?

Over 30 years ago, my Bible study teacher recognized that I was upset about something. The next time I saw her, she gave me an index card with Proverbs 19:11 written on it. She probably had no idea that it was going to change my life. As I opened my heart to God’s Word, something wonderful happened! The Truth set me free! 

Read about it in my post, Love Is Strong Spiritual Warfare, HERE.

Quote of the Week, 12/25/24

“The opposite of wisdom is foolishness – ignorance, lack of discernment, and limited insight in favor of one’s personal preference or opinion. In Proverbs, the wise person is humble before the holiness and counsel of God…”

Pastor David Jeremiah

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
    but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 1:7 NIV

Monday’s Verse, 7/1/24

15 It cannot be bought with the finest gold,
    nor can its price be weighed out in silver.

    Where does understanding dwell?

23 God understands the way to it
    and he alone knows where it dwells,

28 And he said to the human race,
    “The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom,
    and to shun evil is understanding.” Job 28:15, 20, 23, 28 NIV Read full chapter
