Pro 11:27  He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh

mischief, it shall come unto him.

 

When I read this verse my question was what was the good that we were to

diligently seek?

1. God is good!!!  Psa_100:5  For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

2. Seeking to do His commandments is good.  Psa_111:10  The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

3. Giving thanks and singing praises to God is good. Psa_92:1  A Psalm or Song for the sabbath day. It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: .

4. Dwelling in unity with the brethren is good. Psa_133:1  A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
