– SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES (13)
COMMENT: As
in all scripture, God provides blessing for people who take God’s Word
seriously, He also provides cursing for those who do not. We should not take
offense at God or of His Word when warnings from His Word seek our attention. Remember
too, it is not Solomon who is the critical opponent. In fact; there is no one
who is opposed to blessing you or me, except the reader who opposed to his or
her own faith in God. refusing to believe God and be blessed. The Holy Spirit
of God and the Wisdom of God are providing the closing words of Proverbs eight.

THE SCRIPTURES: (Proverbs 8:32-36)
“Now
therefore, listen to me, my children, for blessed are those who
keep my ways. Hear instruction and be wise, and do not disdain it. Blessed
is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, Waiting at the posts
of my doors. For whoever finds me finds life and obtains favor from the LORD; But
he who sins against me wrongs his own soul; All those who hate me love death.”
One thing that we should understand too is that The Wisdom
of God is from everlasting to everlasting. This does not mean that God’s Wisdom
is OLD NEWS and that we have no need of it now. Bah! Humbug! To anyone who
thinks such a thought. Does not the sun rise every morning, God’s Wisdom is
fresh to everyone and much better than the daily news, which is but a filthy
rag in God’s sight. Wait patiently with those who love an seek the appearing of
our Great God and Savior. Stand in the doorway, watch at every gate. Obtain the
favor that God has planned for you from everlasting. Whoever finds the Wisdom
of God OTAINS the Grace of God. Be warned again, for those who refuse to listen
to the call of Wisdom, sins against God and wrongs his or her OWN soul (you are
personally responsible). To hate the Wisdom of God is to love death. You cannot
serve two masters, as you will love one, but hate the other, Matthew 6:24.
I will be on vacation over the next few days, the next
