Proverb 2: 1 – 5
My son, if you will receive my words and treasure my commandments within you, make your ear attentive to wisdom; incline your heart to understanding. For if you cry out for insight, and raise your voice for understanding; if you seek her as silver and search for her as for hidden treasures; then you will understand the fear of the Lord, and discover the knowledge of God.
I may have told you that Proverbs is one of the first books I discovered when I began my journey with the Bible. This passage grabbed my attention early on. The idea that we could discover the knowledge of God set me on my ear. So began my voyage.
As we go through the proverbs, you may learn some astounding things. I hope you will be inspired and encouraged. The next verses of this proverb reveal that seeking wisdom is the path to success, protection and guidance. Through wisdom, you will stand in the comfort and security of the Lord. You will have assurance and confidence. You will see the way in which you are to go. Peace will flow to you and through you on the waves of God’s wisdom. Without effort you will glean truth.
Seek wisdom. Ask the Father, daily, to show you his ways. Be still and let Him share His wisdom with you. Glory! What a way to begin the week, and the rest of our lives. Go with God my beloved.
Speaking of Journeys Through the Bible, have you read my book of the same title. Get your copy here.
Here’s what people are saying about it:
Ivey Rorie has done it again with an insightful look into all the books of the Bible! She is a truly anointed writer with a wonderful way of applying the Word of God to my everyday life situations – right on my level. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about God’s Word, grow in their walk with the Father, and find practical applications to apply God’s Word in every area of your life.
