From our Pastor:

Solomon writing to his son a word of good counsel writes under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost these words, Proverbs 24: 21 "My son, fear thou the Lord and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change."  Solomon is giving some wise counsel to his son that will help him in the days to come. If he listens to what Solomon said and hides the Word in his heart, it will keep him from the pressure of the world around him; also, and most importantly, it will cause him to keep God first in his life.

The system of this world cries out for the mind to stay in step with the cares of the world. Put the trends and fashions in priority level one in your heart's desires. He told his son not to meddle with people that are given to change, prone to being dissatisfied with what they have, always want something new, different, par with the present style. We named this, Given, in today’s way of saying it, "keep up with the Jones."  Another way one could describe this craze is, stay broke like the rest of us". This is nothing but a spirit of covetousness that drives this spending foolishly just to impress others, as one rightly said, who really do not care what you have. Meddle not, refuse to put yourself in that mode of lifestyle, it will cost you dearly and profit you nothing.  He tells his son that the only thing that truly matters in life is, keep your eyes on the Lord, set out to please Him in all that you do. Know that it's impossible to please both the Lord and the people around you, so fear Him, honor Him first with your life and it will be rewarding in the long run.
