Proverbs 1:1-4 When God Says... I Say, AMEN!

When God says ...

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel: To know wisdom and instruction, To perceive the words of understanding, To receive the instruction of wisdom, Justice, judgment, and equity; To give prudence to the simple, To the young man knowledge and discretion— (Proverbs 1:1-4 NKJV)

He challenges us to learn from the wisest king Israel has ever had, with the steps he experienced to know wisdom: it starts with meditating the words of God regularly day and night....and, as and when needed, even if you feel not, like the air we breathe, water we drink and food we eat. Then, embrace and receive it with gusto, like when you are gasping, hungry and thirsty. He promised-we shall be filled. Then apply it in our daily lives in prudent behavior, just dispensation of judgment and decisions, discretion in our actions and language, and equity in dealing with those around us and those under our control and influence.

So, in Christ Jesus, having Lordship of our lives by faith, the Scripture exhorts us with these words of promise - "Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, Who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way you should go. Oh, that you had heeded My commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, And your righteousness like the waves of the sea. (Isaiah 48:17, 18 NKJV)

And I say ... AMEN!
