In today’s Rock Solid Devotional, we turn to Proverbs 3:31–35 to confront a timeless temptation: envying those who seem to prosper through violence, deceit, or mockery. Though wrongdoing may appear effective in the short term, Scripture exposes its true end. Through four sharp contrasts—cunning versus upright, wicked versus righteous, mockers versus humble, and fools versus the wise—this passage reveals God’s unwavering judgment against arrogance and harm, and His deep favor toward those who walk in humility and wisdom. The violent and devious cannot escape God’s curse, while those who honor Him inherit blessing, fellowship, and lasting honor. This episode reminds us that God’s wisdom, not worldly success, is the sure foundation for a life that endures.
