Day: 28
Text: Proverbs 28
Introduction-
“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to a people.” — Proverbs 14:34
As with a nation, so it is with an individual — sin brings fear, shame, and destruction, while righteousness fosters favor, honor, and blessing. A life of sin comes with several burdens, chief among them: separation from God, guilt, and fear (Psalm 38:4). Yet the grace of God, through Jesus Christ, brings redemption, salvation, and restoration. We must take care not to receive this grace in vain.

KEY WORD OF THE DAY — Perfect love casts out fear. (1 John 4:18)
