“WISDOM!”

Proverbs 2:1-5                                (ESV)

“1 MY son, if you receive MY words and treasure up MY commandments with you, 

2 MAKING YOUR EAR attentive to “WISDOM” and INCLINING YOUR HEART to understanding; 

3 yes, if you CALL OUT for insight and raise your voice for understanding, 

4 if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, 

5 then you will UNDERSTAND the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of GOD.”

It seems we are bombarded with other people’s opinions and points of view!  Take television for example, they make a lot of money instructing others about what they should be doing according to this or that so-called “expert”, when in reality THE HOLY BIBLE is the only TRUTH people should be concerned with.  “This world” loves to tell us what everyone else has to say about anything under the sun, but they don’t want to KNOW what ALMIGHTY GOD has to say about how we should live out the life that we have been given by HIM?!?

It has taken me most of my life to come to the realization that I don’t have the answers to the many questions that mankind faces.  Why should we look to the world for answers to questions that arise when ALMIGHTY GOD grants wisdom to those who are humble enough to ask it of HIM (James 1:5).  We cannot just ASK from GOD and expect to be granted “WISDOM” by some great genie in the sky.  Our HEARTS must be INCLINED to hear from HIM and our EARS must be in tune with HIM or we will be working with no attainable goals.  Without having direction from the HOLY SPIRIT we are liken to a rudderless ship with no ability to reach a harbour safely.  

“WISDOM” from our MAKER is the only guidance that will lead us to our desired destiny.  The wisdom of “this world” will make sense to those who operate on “this world’s” principles.  HEAVENLY FATHER, cause me to SEEK YOU and YOUR “WISDOM” in all I do and leave the results to YOU!!!
