Proverbs 31:30 "Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised."

Theological Proposition/Focus: Only

Homiletical Proposition/Application:

Introduction

Body

King Lemuel's mother wanted him to know how to identify a praiseworthy woman: THEN/EXEGETICAL

The first bad reason to give praise: mental prowess

The second bad reason to give praise: physical appearance

The reason to give praise: godliness

The LORD does not look at the things people look at...the LORD looks at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7): ALWAYS/THEOLOGICAL

Our mental prowess is not impressive to God

Our physical appearance is not impressive to God

Our willingness to live a godly life is reveals our heart

Shift your focus and try to look at people as God sees them NOW/HOMILETICAL

Don't look

Conclusion
