When God says...
"The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to turn one away from the snares of death." (Proverbs 13:14 NKJV)
He gives us the only GPS route (so to speak) to life, that keeps us from straying into the labyrinth of pathways the devil or the world or ourselves make. The devil's ways are traps to pull us down with him to his end. He comes to steal, to kill and to destroy. The world's ways are skewed which lead us away from God to their idols. They know not of the things of God. They spurned God and en route to the furnace. And, our ways are not His ways; just plain wandering in the wilderness of follies towards destruction.
Yes, the law and teachings of the wise, which is the holy and written Word of God, is our only GPS device for eternal life. As we thread on this road way, life flourishes and gushes like a fountain - a spring from within. We walk shielded. We are saved from the devil's trap. The warped views of the world loses its influence over us. We will be stirred from aimless sleepwalk. And, we know that the law of the Spirit of life in Jesus Christ is in us, as we rest in His grace by FAITH.
As believers in the risen Lord, when we declare and accept Him our Lord and Savior, He resides in our heart. Yes, the law of the wise is in our heart. He is the spring of living water who sustains our life. He frees us from the shackles of sin and of death, as the scripture exhorts us with these words: "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. (Romans 8:1, 2 NIV)
And I say, AMEN!

(When God says... I say, AMEN! is a provocative reflection of the Lord's holy Word. It intends to challenge every seeker of truth to dig deep into the core of the Word of Life to point every being to Christ Jesus - the author and finisher of our faith, and to draw revelations for change, for nourishment and for strength of every soul.)
