True Wisdom counts!!!!!!!!!!!!

July 8, 2012

Proverbs 8:1-2        “Doth not wisdom cry?  And understanding put forth her voice?  She standeth in the top of high places; by the way in the places of the plans.”

            Today’s verses remind us of a heavenly truth—wisdom counts!  The Word of God stands up and cries out to us to come to all true wisdom—God.  He cries from Mt. Sinai telling Who He is.  He cries out from the wilderness (Ex. 31:3) What He is—spirit, knowledge, understanding, and wisdom.  His very creation cries out from the center of our being (like the main crossroads of the world) How He works.  He shouts to all who will listen to Him from Eden (Gen 3:16) that He is not a shortcut.  Wisdom will never come as a result of accepting Satan’s ideas as our own shortcut. 

            Right now we need to recognize like Joyce Meyer says that the battle for our lives is being waged in the battlefields of our mind.  Satan is sneaky to us like he was two to Eve; he puts negative thoughts, depression, disappointment, and personal losses foremost in our minds.  In this way, he plans to reverse the promises of God to us—hope, truth, salvation, and eternal life.  But there is no shortcut.  Accept, Believe, and Come are the easy ABC’s of God.

Lord, we love you today and want to share your wisdom with our world.  So many people fall into Satan’s trap and look for an easier way to life.  We thank You, Lord, that You have made it so simple for us to have eternal life.  Help us, Lord, to share Your simple plan daily with ones we meet.  For Your service we live.  Amen
