Proverbs 6 : 20-22

Proverbs 6:20 My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.
22 When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.
 
We see now the reverse of what was in the previous verses. We are to listen to the teachings of the father and obey them and also listen to the instructions of the mother and obey them. When we bind them in our hearts it takes God implanting them there and we need to always keep them before us. By doing these things we will know that we are led in the right direction and it will cause us to have a good nights sleep and when we awake and first talk to God He will guide us through the day. God says in His word that we will dream dreams and see visions. If you remember we learned this in Proverbs 3:1-3. Proverbs 3:1 “My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:” Proverbs 3:2 “For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.” Proverbs 3:3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:” “So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.” And it tells the blessings that goes with it.
