First Lesson
Proverbs 10:22-29
22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no
sorrow with it.
23 It
is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding
hath wisdom.
24 The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: but the desire
of the righteous shall be granted.
25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the
righteous is an everlasting foundation.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the
sluggard to them that send him.
27 The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the
wicked shall be shortened.
28 The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation
of the wicked shall perish.
29 The way of the LORD is strength to the upright: but destruction
shall be to the workers of iniquity.

Second Lesson
Philippians 2:12-18
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in
my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your
own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do
of his good pleasure.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without
rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among
whom ye shine as lights in the world;
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the
day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured
in vain.
17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of
your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
18 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.
2nd Lesson Questions:
Philippians 2:12-18. What is it to work out one's salvation with fear and trembling? (V. 12) Do I? How often? RESOLVE.
