In today’s Morning Manna, Rick Wiles continues Proverbs 29 with verses 12 through 14, examining how a ruler’s appetite for falsehood can corrupt an entire administration and eventually shape the culture beneath it. Solomon warns that when a leader repeatedly listens to lies, those around him learn to reward flattery, suppress unwelcome truth, and tell the ruler what he wants to hear. Rick explains how this produces not only corrupt leadership, but a corrupt information system in which truth tellers are pushed aside and deception becomes normal. The lesson then turns to God’s common grace, showing that both the poor and the powerful live by the same light God provides and remain accountable for what they do with it. Finally, Solomon gives the test of righteous leadership: the ruler who faithfully judges the poor establishes his throne. True authority is sustained not by power, wealth, or influence, but by truth received, justice rendered, and the way leaders treat those who have the least ability to repay or retaliate.

In today’s Morning Manna, Rick Wiles continues Proverbs 29 with verses 10 and 11, examining why the upright often attract hatred they did not provoke and why wisdom requires restraint in speech. Solomon contrasts the bloodthirsty, who hate the blameless, with the fool who releases everything in his mind without restraint. Rick explains that righteousness itself can provoke hostility because integrity exposes darkness simply by being present. But the lesson also warns believers not to mistake every conflict for persecution or to deliberately provoke others and then claim victimhood. The focus then turns to the discipline of the tongue. A fool immediately releases every thought, emotion, irritation, and reaction, while a wise person knows how to hold words back until the right time. Wisdom is not permanent silence—it is knowing what should be said, when it should be said, and how much should be said. The same words spoken in the heat of the moment can wound, while words delivered later with restraint and discernment can bring healing.

In today’s Morning Manna, Rick Wiles continues Proverbs 29 with verses 3 and 4, showing how quickly something that took years or generations to build can be destroyed. Solomon first contrasts the son who loves wisdom and brings joy to his father with the man who gives himself to sexual immorality and wastes his substance. Rick explains that the loss is greater than money—the prodigal can consume an inheritance built through the labor, sacrifice, and discipline of generations before him. The same principle then moves from the family to the nation. A king establishes a land through justice, but bribery and corruption can tear down what generations worked to build. Justice gives a society stability, allowing ordinary people to trust judgments, make plans, invest, and live with confidence. Corruption destroys that foundation by allowing money and influence to distort what should be decided righteously. Whether it is personal appetite consuming a family inheritance or political corruption consuming a nation, the warning is the same: building is slow, but destruction can come quickly when wisdom, righteousness, and justice are abandoned.

In today’s Morning Manna, Rick Wiles begins Proverbs 29 with a sobering warning about what happens when repeated correction is continually refused. Solomon describes the person who is “often reproved” yet hardens his neck until destruction comes suddenly and without remedy. Like an ox resisting the yoke, the stiff-necked person becomes increasingly unwilling to listen, change, or respond to conviction. Rick examines how this hardening develops gradually, why every rejected reproof makes the next easier to refuse, and how resistance to God can eventually leave a person unable to receive the very correction meant to save them. The lesson then connects private character with public leadership: uncorrected people who gain authority can become oppressive rulers, causing the people beneath them to groan. Proverbs 29 also reveals that a society’s condition can be measured by what it honors—when righteousness is praised, people rejoice; when the ungodly rule, people mourn.

In this Faith Friday edition of Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart continue the Desperate Faith series with blind Bartimaeus in Mark 10. Sitting beside the road as Jesus passed through Jericho, Bartimaeus had only one way to reach Him: his voice. When the people surrounding Jesus ordered him to be quiet, “he cried the more a great deal.” His desperate faith stopped Christ on the road to Jerusalem and the cross. This lesson examines faith that refuses to be silenced, the danger of allowing others to stand between us and Christ, and the remarkable response of Bartimaeus after receiving his sight. Jesus told him, “Go thy way,” but Bartimaeus chose to go Christ’s way instead. Sometimes desperate faith means refusing to stop crying out until Jesus stands still.

In today’s Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart conclude Proverbs 28 with a powerful promise for believers living through difficult times. Solomon acknowledges the reality that “when the wicked rise, men hide themselves,” but he does not leave the righteous in hiding. The wicked also perish, and “the righteous increase.” This lesson explores why prudent withdrawal under genuine threat is not cowardice, why seasons of wicked ascendancy are temporary, and how God repeatedly turns suppression into multiplication. From Israel under Pharaoh to the persecuted church in Acts, Scripture reveals a consistent pattern: what the enemy attempts to suppress, God can cause to multiply. The hiding is real, but it is not permanent. The season has an end, and God determines when it comes.

Rick Wiles and Dr. Raymond Burkhart take up two proverbs that look unrelated — one about self-trust, one about generosity — and show that both describe the same failure: a man managing what he is willing to see. Verse 26 calls trusting your own heart folly, not because the heart is worthless but because it is an interested party, being asked to rule on its own desires. Verse 27 locates the failure of generosity not in the closed hand but in the hidden eye, at the quiet arrangement never to see so that no decision is ever required. The lesson presses Paul's refusal of his own acquittal in 1 Corinthians 4:3–4, the genuine bewilderment of the condemned in Matthew 25, and the Septuagint's sharper readings — the presumptuous "bold heart" and the aporia of a man left with no way forward.

In today’s Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine Proverbs 28:24–25 and two ways self-trust can corrupt our judgment. Solomon confronts the person who does wrong and then rationalizes it by saying, “It is no transgression.” He then exposes the proud heart that continually stirs up strife. This lesson examines how easily we can redefine our own wrongdoing, why pride produces conflict even when we are not deliberately looking for a fight, and how unbelief often hides beneath our need to control circumstances and protect our position. Scripture offers a radically different path: “he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.” What pride attempts to grasp for itself, faith trusts God to provide.

In today’s Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine Proverbs 28:21–23 and three dangers that quietly corrupt judgment: partiality, the grasping pursuit of wealth, and flattery. Solomon warns that integrity is often sold for far less than we imagine, that the person consumed with getting rich can become blind to the poverty approaching him, and that honest correction will ultimately earn more favor than empty praise. This lesson challenges believers to judge without favoritism, examine what truly drives their financial ambitions, and value the friend willing to tell the truth rather than the flatterer who merely tells us what we want to hear.

In this Faith Friday edition of Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart begin a new series, Desperate Faith: Faith That Interrupts. We meet the woman of Mark 5 who had suffered for twelve years, spent everything she had, and only grew worse. Ceremonially unclean and accustomed to living at a distance, she pushed through the crowd believing that if she could only touch Jesus’ clothes, she would be healed. What followed reveals something powerful about faith: the crowd pressed against Jesus, but one desperate woman truly touched Him. She came seeking healing and received far more. Jesus stopped, called her “Daughter,” publicly restored her, and declared, “Thy faith hath made thee whole.
