Get knowledge and understanding, but never neglect reproof.

Proverbs 30: 1-3   “… surely I am more brutish than any man, and have not the understanding of a man.  I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy.  “

            In these three verses we see the main message of Proverbs again.  First, get the knowledge from God’s Word to acquire the wisdom needed in your daily lives.  Second, apply this knowledge to your experiences to relate the wisdom and knowledge.  Finally, do not ignore the reproof for advice from your family and leaders for you will be thought of as a self centered braggart. ( brutish). 

            From Hebrew let me also give a few meanings for us to consider. Proverbs means comparison.  Agur means collector or perhaps inspired writer, Ithiel means “ Immanuel is with us” or perhaps Jesus, Ucal means “ the All Powerful  or perhaps God.  These meanings would come together with the “ man” of verse one being the holy spirit or perhaps the Inspirer. Think about that. 

            Lord, We love you today and worship our Trinity God.  Help us to remember Who you are, what you have done, as well as what you are doing daily in our lives.  Help us to except your leading and pursue it.      

For your service we live.      A men .
