Proverbs 11 wisdom, faith principles, and life-changing Inchstones come together in this powerful episode that shows exactly why “God’s got you” is more than a comforting phrase—it’s a roadmap to peace, integrity, and real-life transformation. If you’ve ever doubted whether God is working behind the scenes, this breakdown of Proverbs 11 will strengthen your trust, steady your heart, and help you walk in daily wisdom.
My Pops used to say it all the time: “God’s got you!”
Truthfully? I didn’t always believe it. But Proverbs 11 reminds us—over and over—that truth doesn’t lose power just because we’re stubborn. It just delays our peace.
Today’s Inchstones (grab the book here: https://a.co/d/4CYg4vG) walk through every major theme of Proverbs 11 and how it actually plays out in your everyday life:
🔹 Do the right thing — Verse 1
Humility and wisdom defeat pride every single time.
🔹 Integrity guides and protects — Verses 2–9
Depend on God, not your achievements. Doing right clears the path.
🔹 Integrity gets celebrated — Verses 10–11
Blessings may not be instant, but they’re inevitable.
🔹 Be slow to speak, quick to listen — Verses 12–19
Seek wise counsel. Speak life. Work your land. Kindness brings honor.
🔹 Doing right is never wrong — Verses 20–21
The blessing follows the obedience. Every. Time.
🔹 Act like the greatness God placed in you — Verses 22–23
🔹 Generosity wins — Verses 24–26
🔹 Seek Him, and you will find clarity — Verses 27–28
Trust. Lean. Submit. He will make your path straight.
🔹 Honor your family — Verse 29
🔹 The fruit of doing right is a tree of life — Verses 30–31
Rooted deep. Reaching high.
If you ever forget that God’s got you, just read Proverbs 11.
Your only job is to accept the truth. And even when you’re hardheaded, His patience doesn’t run out—your blessing just waits for you to catch up.
