4 Proverbs "Working on Our Work Ethic"

from Washed in the Word · host Sean Doyle

We'd love to hear from you. Text us.“Laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes him.”  “God gives the birds their food, but He doesn't throw it into their nests.”  Thomas Jefferson used to say: “I'm a great believer in luck, & I find the harder I work the more I have of it” Vince Lombardi used to say: “The dictionary is the only place that success comes before work.”  Those are all statements regarding our work ethic.  The Bible makes similar statements.  In fact, there are at least 44 verses in the book Proverbs that pertain to our work ethic.  It is one of the mega-themes of Proverbs & is therefore something that God wants us to understand, embrace & apply.  Grab your Bible, a pen, & print out the free downloadable sermon outline & accompanying study guide & let's get Washed in the Word!Free sermon outlines & accompanying study guides are available at our website: www.washedintheword.life on the Study Guides page.
