More Wisdom

Let us continue in our instructions of gaining Wisdom. God is all Wise. We should constantly seek Him and His Will for our lives. When we slip away from Him our lives become meaningless. If you are experiencing that feeling then reevaluate your life and your reasons for the things you are doing. Are you seeking your own wellfare or are you living to help others. Are you bringing the Light of the Gospel of Christ to others in the way you live, the things you say, the language you use? If not, then you need to pray and ask God to help you follow in His Ways once again so your life will once again be full of meaning. Satan desires to make us captive for him. He does not go after those he already has, but after you and me my friends in Christ! He really knows how to fight for us! Be on the lookout always, and constantly strive to gain wisdom into the ways of the LORD.
Proverbs 3:1 My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity. 3: Let love and faithfulness never leave you: bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. 4: Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. 5: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. 6:In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. 7: Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. 8: This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. 9: Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops; 10: then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine. 11 :My son, do not despise the Lord's discipline and do not resent His rebuke, 12: because the Lord disciplines those He loves, as a father the son he delights in. 13: Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gains understanding, 14: for she is more profitable than silver and yields better return than gold. 15: she is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. 16: Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. 17:Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. 18: She is a tree of life to those who embrace her; those who lay hold of her will be blessed. 19: By wisdom the Lord laid the earth's foundations, by understanding He set the heavens in place; 20: by His knowledge the deeps were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew. 21:My son, preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight; 22: they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. 23: then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble; 24; when you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. 25: Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, 26: for the Lord will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being snared. 27: Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. 28: Do not say to your neighbor, "Come back later; I'll give it tomorrow"--when you now have it with you. 29: do not plot harm against your neighbor, who lives trustfully near you. 30: Do not accuse a man for no reason-- when he has done you no harm. 31: Do not envy a violent man or choose any of his ways, 32: for the Lord detests a perverse man but takes the upright into His confidence. 33: The Lord's curse is on the house of the wicked, but He blesses the home of the righteous. 34: He mocks proud mockers but gives grace to the humble. 35: The wise inherit honor, but fools He holds up to shame.

Oh to be wise! God does not tell us we have to be wise to receive His blessings and His protection from evil. He does not tell us we have to be wise to live as He instructs us to. We can not be Wise as He is wise. However, He is telling us we are to SEEK AFTER HIS WISDOM! When we do this we are listening to His teachings, His instructions, His Way of living. Then we receive these blessings, His guidance, His help to live the WAY He instructs us to live. We can not live perfect lives, full of His Wisdom. We SEEK to do that through reading His Word, and prayer, and HE gives us the strength of Faith, through Christ, and mind, through the Love of Christ. Seek Gods Will above your own, and He will show you a very blessed life and you will be able to be used by Him as someone to carry the LIGHT of the World,,,,Christ, to all those living in darkness. Our world sure needs us!
