When God Says …
“These also are proverbs of Solomon which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied: It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.” (Proverbs 25:1-2 NKJV)
We are reminded that these are proverbs which God revealed through Solomon the wisest king the world ever have - he sought wisdom from God and wisdom he was given. These words, which king Hezekiah's scribes copied, clearly helped Hezekiah king of Judah unto repentance, and spared his kingdom from the wrath of the Lord (2 Chronicles 32:26).
And, these reminds us too, that there are matters concealed by God in His Words that will stay hidden until we are ready to uncover in that right time of our search, as we grow in our faith and closeness with Him. Like King Hezekiah and other righteous kings of Israel and Judah, it is wise and glorious to continuously seek the wealth of wisdom in the holy and written Words of God.
When we SEEK, we will FIND! That’s for certain! Hence, we must be careful what we seek for. If you seek for trouble, you will find it, too. So, we ought to seek things of heaven and of the Kingdom of God! As God's children of grace by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, He gives us this promise: “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.” (Matthew 7:7-8 ESV)
And I say, AMEN!
