God's View - Better than Bird's Eyeview

Proverbs 5

Inspired thots

There are TWO paths in Life; WISDOM and ADULTERESS;

EMBRACE one and STEER CLEAR of the other;
One's DECISION determines the END RESULT;
Drink from own cistern rather than covet another's;
Be CONTENT with own lot in Life;

For the Lord is always watching over man; he will reap what he sows.
Lack of DISCIPLINE and own FOLLY will bring DESTRUCTION to man as he is captured by the cords of his sin.

Be wise then to choose the PURE PATH of Life; Wisdom is at hand to guide.

God sees All.

Sound Advice from a Loving Father - Joshua Generation!

Proverbs 4

Inspired thots

What can a loving father give the child to carry the young one through life? W I S D O M

Gaining Wisdom or INSIGHT is the most important Trait one can have to Live Right and Well. The ADVICE is passed down from generation to generation; ONLY IF it was received and practiced. This would confirm the soundness of the advice; its relevance and importance to be passed down.

This is HINDSIGHT advice; Snr Ps just mentioned in yesterday's sermon that 'when young, we had no wisdom but had the boldness to take risks by bulldozing our way through life; then, when we become old and full of wisdom, we had no energy or boldness to take risks.'

Truly WISDOM is needed; the Joshua Generation needs to embrace it as quickly as possible to couple with their Boldness and Energy to be effective vessels for the Lord!

Fullness in the Heart

Proverbs 3

Inspired thots

There can be FULLNESS of Heart when one is secure in the Lord; only in God alone will one find the full joy and peace with protection. God is SO good; He only wants to BLESS. His chastisement is to bring His people back to His covering. Who on earth would go all the way out of his convenience to bless another all the time? Only loving Abba Father God! Hallelujah!

What is expected of you, O man? to walk humbly in God's ways; trust Him fully; seek Him while He may be found. There is SO much riches unfathomable in Christ. Praise the LORD! Hallelujah! How easy and true not to lean on your own understanding.

STEPS to Wisdom

Proverbs 2

Inspired thots

Interesting how Wisdom does not come just like magic; it does not 'happen' to be there for the taking. 

It has to be received through PROACTIVENESS;
> one must MAKE the ear ATTENTIVE;
> INCLINE the HEART;
> CRY OUT;
> RAISE tje Voice;
> SEEK and SEARCH for it.

Then Wisdom comes openly with Understanding and Knowledge. 

Wow! It feels like Seek ONE, Get THREE deal! Not bad!

Choose the Fear of God

Proverbs 1

Inspired thots

There is MUCH to be gained when choosing to fear God alone; His instruction is Wisdom. His reproof is Warning.  His counsel is Security. 

There are consequences to every choice we make.

God will heed those who are obedient to Him but those who heed their own desires, God will ignore. One must remember that man is finite; a created being.  hence, be not wise in our own minds and being. We are God's creation; hence, only HE knows best... for us! Let us choose the fear of the Lord which is clean and forever enduring (Ps 19)

Let everything that has breath, praise the Lord! PRAISE the Lord!
