God saw that everything he had done was good. There were peace beauty and harmony! This is what the good God speaks of, so a good wife must or should represent grace for her husband, an undeserved favour. Does she/he love Jesus truly? Does she/he brings peace for you? If yes then you can marry.

Can someone explain this verse to me? What is God's intention for this verse? My mom takes this verse and runs with it. Every time I meet a guy she wants to know who approached who.

No work, no eat! JESUS said that we would have to work, and by our sweat and work we would eat...SLOTHFULNESS breeds addictions, and I believe that charitable services ie disability checks can be seriously taken for granted.

He that finds a wife, finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord. I thank God, that He picked my wife for me, and provided me just the type of wife that I needed. A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband's head. Just as God said it is not good for man to be alone, so He made a helpmeet for Adam. Therefore, shall a man leave father, and mother then shall he cleave unto his wife. Before you can cleave to your wife, you must leave father, and mother. This has been a struggle for many couples today. A cord of three shall not be broken. God first, your wife, and then your family. Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and He will provide that wife that you need. Thank God for His favor, and it is good to both hope, and wait on the Lord.

Ch18 reveals the deep things of God and the key transference of His wisdom to usward. In vs 1 it starts with desire and a stubborn pursuit of it. The word "intermeddleth" means obstinate, fixed, an unyielding course. It is stubborn in a good way. And vs. 2 fools have no desire for this pursuit. The key unfolds in vs4- "The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters -- There is only 2 things in life that is deep; God is deep and you and i are also deep. For deep refers to eternal! You and i are eternal and God is eternal; heaven and earth shall pass away but God;s word abideth forever. In Ps.42;7 - deep calleth unto deep!! God is calling us to desire Him, the only source of wisdom and life eternal. Therefore the noteable key is found in vs4 "The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters " -- When Jesus was at the well in Jo.4 with the woman; she said the well is deep and He replied if you knew who it was you were talking with he would give you water that you would never thirst again. And then she "SAID WITH HER MOUTH", sir give me this water. Thus we see the key is our spoken words that draw the water of life from the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook into our hearts, by His grace and faith. All tru Proverbs we see our words,lips, tongue are key to wisdom being attained. We see in vs. 6&7 that a fools lips and words are a snare to their soul. It cuts both ways ; "by our words we will be either justified or condemned."Mt.12;37 -- The wisdom key is clearly amplified in vs.20 & 21 --A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

PROVERBS CHAPTER 18: THE NAME OF THE LORD IS POWERFUL THE RIGHTEOUS WILL RECEIVE IT AND IS SAFE. A MAN BELLY IS SATISFIED WITH FRUIT AND CHEWING MORE HE WILL BE FILLED. WORDS CAN HELP OR HARM YOU AND IF YOU LOVE THE WORD, YOU,LL CONTINUE TO READ THE WORD. FINDING A WIFE IS GREAT AND GOD WILL GIVE YOU FAVOR FOR IT.

i like verse 22 because it says if man finds a wife he finds a good thing but if god dosent see fit then it will not be.
Derek's comment on 9/12/2010, 9:03pm...
conceit in this verse is a hebrew word for imagination. we are to let God be our fortress and streangth, not any man made thing. Many people think because they have things they are above all else but not to God who judges the heart and not what we have

You should hear the whole thing before you answer
noone knows what the other person is going to say so don't answer until you hear it all.
