Proverbs 2

Proverbs 2
2-5 Turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding and if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as hidden treasure , then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.- NIV.It takes more than just wanting wisdom. We have to seek it, beg for it, call out for it, and search for it. When we really want something we don't let anyone stop us from getting it. When we have to work to get something, to be diligent and fervent in earning it, then we we appreciate it. God doesn't just give wisdom to everyone when they become Christians. This we have to earn. We have to show God that we want it and we appreciate it for what its worth.There is so much in my life that I have put in the time, work, and effort for, but have I really given God the same things? We kinda go with the fact that God is always there and He will always love us. God deserves the same time, work, and effort that I put into worldly things. Its time for me to give this respect to God.God, I am ready and willing to put in the time, effort, and work to show you how Worthy you are of my Worship and Respect. I love you Father and I cannot thank you enough for all the blessings that you have poured out on my life. Thank you. I love you,In Jesus' Name,Amen

Proverbs 1

Proverbs 1

vs 23

Come and Listen to my counsel. I'll share my heart with you and make you wise. - NLT

If you had responded to my rebuke, I would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you. - NIV

This chapter is really talking about how we need wisdom, how God wants to give us wisdom, but how we are foolish and listen to the world.  We reject God's wisdom to do what the world entices us to do. We do such stupid stuff and then regret it, if only we would have stopped and asked God is it was a wise idea. We need to spend time sitting at God's feet listening to His heart.

I need to actively seek God's will and wisdom.  It so easy to think I know what I am doing or this is such a trivial thing no need to ask God what I should do its obvious. What happens next is the regret for not thinking something through that is when we turn to God. We tell him how foolish we are and would he help us. I need to be proactive and not retroactive. Seeking God's wisdom in all things.

God help me to be more proactive when seeking your wisdom.  God give me your wisdom and guide my life. I want to know your heart. I love you Lord.

In Jesus' name,
