The Law
9
God detests the prayers
of a person who ignores the law.
10
Those who lead good people along an evil path
will fall into their own trap,
but the honest will inherit good things.
11
Rich people may think they are wise,
but a poor person with discernment can see right through them.
In Verse 9, we learn that if a person turns away from God's commandments, even a beautifully spoken prayer will be rejected by God.
Jesus echoed the message of Verse 10 when He said, "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a huge millstone hung around his neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea."
Verse 11 reminds us that while a rich person may think money gives them importance, a poor person often understands that true value doesn’t come from wealth.
Think about this: Some people find their sense of importance in their wealth, their job, or their education. But our real self-worth comes from the fact that God loves us—not because of what we do, but because we are His creation. Whether rich or poor, no matter our skin color, education, or power, God loves us all equally!
