The book of Proverbs contains wise observations of life. What results can we expect from following them?
-
If we follow these wise observations, we can learn wisdom and instruction, discern the sayings of understanding, receive instruction, give prudence, and understand a proverb and figure, and the words of the wise and their riddles. This should increase our wisdom, even though there is no guarantee that our lives won’t have any struggles.
-
If we follow these wise observations, we can increase the chance to have a wise living. But there are no promises that our lives will be smooth sailing because life is full or twists and turns that we have no control over. We can only hold on to God and His promises.

A wise life requires a commitment to God’s law. We must see God for who He is and live as He intended for us to have any hope of living a wise and fulfilling life.
-
We can expect generally good results from following the advice in Proverbs because God’s principles are based in truths.
-
By following the wisdom of the proverbs, we can expect a closer walk with God. Although they are not promises of God they are wonderful principles with statistically higher outcomes and at least a better understanding.
