Proverbs and the Internet
Here is my hand-picked selection of proverbs that I felt had special applicability to life on the internet, and their application. Under the cut.
Proverbs 12:16
New International Version
16 Fools show their annoyance at once,
but the prudent overlook an insult.
Proverbs 15:18
English Standard Version
Proverbs 16:32
18 A hot-tempered man stirs up strife,
but he who is slow to anger quiets contention.
English Standard Version
Application: A lot of times if you simply don’t react, or don’t give people the dramatic reaction they are looking for, you can prevent a fight. Don’t be too easily goaded. You can end a lot of things by not being too easily goaded.
32 Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
___
Proverbs 3:30
New International Version
Proverbs 16:28 ESV
30 Do not accuse anyone for no reason—
when they have done you no harm.
A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends.
Proverbs 20:19 ESV
Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a simple babbler.
Proverbs 14:25
English Standard Version
Application: Is your circle of the internet one where people go around starting “drama” by telling lies about others? Do you know someone who does this? Get away from them. Have you done this? Think before you accuse someone of something.
25 A truthful witness saves lives,
but one who breathes out lies is deceitful.
___
Proverbs 15:1
English Standard Version
Application: By being calm you can prevent people from lashing back at you and escalating. You can even de-escalate if you keep calm.
15 A soft answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.
___
Proverbs 18:12
English Standard Version
Proverbs 15:33
12 Before destruction a man's heart is haughty,
but humility comes before honor.
English Standard Version
Application: “Humility comes before honor”- you don’t have to be right or appear to be right. That won’t help you before God. It’s pride if you have to win every argument, if you have to be right every time.
33 The fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom,
and humility comes before honor.
___
Proverbs 13:20
English Standard Version
Proverbs 14:7
20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,
but the companion of fools will suffer harm.
English Standard Version
Application: Just leave that toxic message board. Are you on a sector of the internet where they encourage you to hate other people in your life, and are dragging you into foolish mindsets, encouraging people to more and more extreme ideology, stirring up anxiety, etc? Get out of there.
7 Leave the presence of a fool,
for there you do not meet words of knowledge.
___
Proverbs 14:15
English Standard Version
Application: It’s important to find sources and to check if things are true before you spread them! Don’t believe that something is true just because you read it on the internet.
15 The simple believes everything,
but the prudent gives thought to his steps.
___
Proverbs 10:23
English Standard Version
Proverbs 15:21
23 Doing wrong is like a joke to a fool,
but wisdom is pleasure to a man of understanding.
English Standard Version
Proverbs 26:18-19
21 Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense,
but a man of understanding walks straight ahead.
English Standard Version
Application: It is neither safe nor wise to hang out with the type of people on the internet who think that trolling, provoking other people, and stirring up trouble is fun. Whether it’s going to a different website to provoke and cause chaos to the people there, or posting flame bait, or leading people on with various forms of deception for entertainment, God hates this kind of behavior.
18 Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death
19 is the man who deceives his neighbor
and says, “I am only joking!”
___
Proverbs 29:9
English Standard Version
Application: DON’T FEED THE TROLLS
9 If a wise man has an argument with a fool,
the fool only rages and laughs, and there is no quiet.
___
Proverbs 9:7-9
New International Version
Proverbs 23:9
7 Whoever corrects a mocker invites insults;
whoever rebukes the wicked incurs abuse.
8 Do not rebuke mockers or they will hate you;
rebuke the wise and they will love you.
9 Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still;
teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.
English Standard Version
Application: Call the papers, somebody on the internet is wrong!
9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool,
for he will despise the good sense of your words.
Seriously, don’t feed the trolls. You don’t need to write an essay to explain to every wrong person why they are wrong. Unless they are sincerely interested in listening to you, it will fall on deaf ears. Ask yourself if this person seems like they would actually benefit from being corrected.
___
Proverbs 12:15
New International Version
Proverbs 13:10
15 The way of fools seems right to them,
but the wise listen to advice.
New International Version
Proverbs 15:32
10 Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice.
English Standard Version
Application: Are you listening when other people tell you that you are out of line?
32 Whoever ignores instruction despises himself,
but he who listens to reproof gains intelligence.
___
Proverbs 15:28
English Standard Version
Application: Notice how the righteous “ponders”, but the wicked simply “pours out”. Think before you type something!
28 The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer,
but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.
___
Proverbs 10:19
English Standard Version
Proverbs 17:27-28
19 When words are many, transgression is not lacking,
but whoever restrains his lips is prudent.
English Standard Version
Application: Don’t post too much, don’t be easily angered. The more you type the more likely you are to say something wrong. Don’t be easily provoked. Even if you don’t have anything intelligent to say, if you withhold comment, you can even have a reputation for being smart.
27 Whoever restrains his words has knowledge,
and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding.
28 Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise;
when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.
___
Proverbs 11:12
New International Version
Application: Don’t name-call people on the internet.
12 Whoever derides their neighbor has no sense,
but the one who has understanding holds their tongue.
___
Proverbs 21:24
English Standard Version
Proverbs 22:10
24 “Scoffer” is the name of the arrogant, haughty man
who acts with arrogant pride.
English Standard Version
Proverbs 26:20-21
10 Drive out a scoffer, and strife will go out,
and quarreling and abuse will cease.
English Standard Version
20 For lack of wood the fire goes out,
and where there is no whisperer, quarreling ceases.
21 As charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
so is a quarrelsome man for kindling strife.
___
Application:
Just ban that guy from the server.
Is there one person who seems to be constantly causing issues? Is it because they’re too full of themselves and can’t stop making trouble? Just kick him out, seriously.
Proverbs 21:11
English Standard Version
Application: So you had to ban that guy from the server. If his misdeed was public, it can benefit others to explain why he got blocked and what happened so that other people don’t do the same thing. When troublemakers don’t just get away with things, other people can benefit from the negative example.
11 When a scoffer is punished, the simple becomes wise;
when a wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge.
___
Proverbs 16:21
English Standard Version
Application: Or: “You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar”.
21 The wise of heart is called discerning,
and sweetness of speech increases persuasiveness.
___
Proverbs 18:2
English Standard Version
Application: I feel like this one doesn’t even need any comment.
2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding,
but only in expressing his opinion.
___
Proverbs 18:13
English Standard Version
Application: Read! Don’t just tl;dr something and then react. Don’t just react to what you thought someone said.
13 If one gives an answer before he hears,
it is his folly and shame.
___
Proverbs 18:17
English Standard Version
Application: Don’t just believe some one-sided callout post on face value. You should always listen to the other side of the story before you decide who is right and who is wrong.
17 The one who states his case first seems right,
until the other comes and examines him.
___
Proverbs 29:11
English Standard Version
Application: Don’t overshare on the internet. Some things you need to keep to yourself. Don't just say every thought that runs through your head.
11 A fool gives full vent to his spirit,
but a wise man quietly holds it back.
___
Proverbs 20:3
English Standard Version
Proverbs 26:17
3 It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife,
but every fool will be quarreling.
English Standard Version
Application: Fools be quarreling. When you happen to see two people fighting, don’t get involved! It’s like jumping into a dogfight. Why would you do that? You literally have no dog in this fight.
17 Whoever meddles in a quarrel not his own
is like one who takes a passing dog by the ears.
___
Proverbs 25:11-12
English Standard Version
Application: None of this is to say you should never say anything on the internet. There are many times it is quite wise and beneficial to say something or even correct people.
11 A word fitly spoken
is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.
12 Like a gold ring or an ornament of gold
is a wise reprover to a listening ear.
___
Proverbs 26:4-5
English Standard Version
Application: These two proverbs contrast each other to make a point. Sometimes someone is being so stupid that to answer them is to stoop to their level. You simply shouldn’t even dignify that kind of garbage with a response.
4 Answer not a fool according to his folly,
lest you be like him yourself.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
lest he be wise in his own eyes.
On the other hand, sometimes someone is being so foolish that you just have to reply to them, otherwise they will get away with it.
You should always be asking yourself “is it worth it to actually engage with this? Is it degrading to me? Will anyone benefit if I do?”

Balaam, the Donkey, and the Angel
21 So in the morning Balaam got up, saddled his donkey, and went with the princes of Moab.
22 Then God’s anger was kindled because Balaam was going along, and the angelb of the LORD stood in the road to oppose him. Balaam was riding his donkey, and his two servants were with him.
23 When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road with a drawn sword in his hand, she turned off the path and went into a field. So Balaam beat her to return her to the path.
24 Then the angel of the LORD stood in a narrow passage between two vineyards, with walls on either side. 25 And the donkey saw the angel of the LORD and pressed herself against the wall, crushing Balaam’s foot against it. So he beat her once again.
26 And the angel of the LORD moved on ahead and stood in a narrow place where there was no room to turn to the right or left. 27 When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam, and he became furious and beat her with his staff.
28 Then the LORD opened the donkey’s mouth, and she said to Balaam, “What have I done to you that you have beaten me these three times?”
29 Balaam answered the donkey, “You have made a fool of me! If I had a sword in my hand, I would kill you right now!”
30 But the donkey said to Balaam, “Am I not the donkey you have ridden all your life until today? Have I ever treated you this way before?”
“No,” he replied.
31 Then the LORD opened Balaam’s eyes, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road with a drawn sword in his hand. And Balaam bowed low and fell facedown.
32 The angel of the LORD asked him, “Why have you beaten your donkey these three times? Behold, I have come out to oppose you, because your way is perversec before me. 33 The donkey saw me and turned away from me these three times. If she had not turned away, then by now I would surely have killed you and let her live.”
34 “I have sinned,” Balaam said to the angel of the LORD, “for I did not realize that you were standing in the road to confront me. And now, if this is displeasing in your sight, I will go back home.”
35 But the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, “Go with the men, but you are to speak only what I tell you.” So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
36 When Balak heard that Balaam was coming, he went out to meet him at the Moabite city on the Arnon border, at the edge of his territory. 37 And he said to Balaam, “Did I not send you an urgent summons? Why did you not come to me? Am I really not able to richly reward you?”
38 “See, I have come to you,” Balaam replied, “but can I say just anything? I must speak only the word that God puts in my mouth.”
39 So Balaam accompanied Balak, and they came to Kiriath-huzoth. — Numbers 22:21-39 | Majority Standard Bible (MSB) The Holy Bible, Majority Standard Bible is produced in cooperation with Bible Hub, Discovery Bible, OpenBible.com, and the Berean Bible Translation Committee.

Self Image as a woman is constant battle between comparison and content.
Idolize the perfect body, the perfect hair, the perfect skin routine, the perfect face shape, the perfect breast size, the perfect gym glutes, the must-be-perfected everything about ourselves.
And after we ‘achieve’ one of the above, we move on to the next project of ourselves.
Women of God, there’s a difference between bettering your body and eating habits, versus objecting your body and eating habits. What I mean by objecting is subjecting ourselves as constant object of attention - attention to the self, and not to God. Attention to the self-image, instead of God’s image.
We should want what is God’s best - for our souls, minds, bodies, and health. We are the temple for the Holy Spirit. But taking that best and turning it into nitpicking obsession, is never going to satisfy your fleshly self-image. You are created in God’s image.
You are the rib, the daughter, the child, the woman of God. When you complicate your beauty in Christ, (beauty as in faith, modesty, prayer, love, kindness, fruits of the spirit, peace), you compromise Christ.
Instead of reflecting Christ, you’re reflecting the world. You’re fixing your outward appearance to match the mask of unpredictable industries.
You can’t say you love God, but then love complaining about your facial features, your body shape, your weight, your stretch marks, your hair, your lips… your whole Godly make up boiled down to what the world defines as a “woman”.
I’ve been here, and I am here, and to be honest, nothing in the world is going to make you a more beautiful daughter, sister, mother, wife, than being in Christ.
We need to value ourselves according to the Word, and not the word of articles, tiktoks, hacks, tutorials, skinny exercise Pilates or whatever.
We mustn’t trade our authentic femininity for short-lived vanity. Don’t idolize what you wear, your makeup, your hair, your skin, your fitness level… etc. Instead of praising God and giving Glory to Him, you give praise and glory to companies and models, and products. I’m not saying don’t get your hair down, don’t go to the gym and get fit, don’t get your nails done, don’t eat healthier, don’t try new methods to help with your acne and stretch marks and dermatological complications, don’t not love your gift of being pretty. I’m saying we mustn’t make our outward appearance the standard over Christ. Our outward must reflect our inward, and that happens when we take our eyes off our insecurities and set them in Christ and the loving Word of God.
Nothing in appearance lasts forever, we aren’t going to look younger and cuter when our bodies are buried one day. Proverbs 31:30, “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.”
Seek God, seek His image in you, seek His beauty, His purity, His love: because we are made in His image. We are fearfully and wonderfully made! Psalm 139:14, “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.”
No, maybe you’re not a Victoria Secret Model like Adriana Lima. You’re not the ideal blonde like Taylor Swift, you’re not curvy like Kim Kardashin, you’re not fit like Simone Biles, you’re not attractive like the DCC Cheerleaders, you’re not super intelligent like Amy from the TBBT, you’re not cleared skinned like Jennie from Black Pink. It doesn’t matter what you’re not, it matters what you are: a woman of God. What makes a woman of God attractive and beautiful and intelligent and pleasing, Her love for Christ! PROVERBS 31! Your value and belle is beyond worldy measure. Proverbs 31:15-18, “…She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed.
Don’t spend your life hating your body, it is your vessel for the Adonai Almighty.
^ 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.”
^ 1 Corinthians 10:31, “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”
Don’t simplify your significance to God, by treating it as an insecurity. You’re perfect as following Him makes you to be. Matthew 19:21, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
