Bible Verse of The Day – 9-12-16

Hosea 4:6 (NKJV) 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

Knowledge and understanding are so critical in our walk with God. It isn’t necessarily worldly or natural knowledge that we need. We shouldn’t be ignorant when it comes to the matters of the world, but getting God’s wisdom is the most important thing.

So many times we can cause problematic situations in our lives to be prolonged because we lack God’s knowledge, wisdom and understanding. As we face trials and tough situations, it really helps to know what God’s word says about various things that we encounter.

This helps us to be able to make wise decisions and choices quickly. And not only does it save time, but it keeps us from falling prey to things that will harm us or those around us.

Proverbs 16:16 (NKJV) 16 How much better to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.

Sharp discernment is also very important, as it will help us know how to judge the things we’re seeing and hearing around us, so we will know whether it’s God speaking to us or not. And once we learn to recognize God’s voice, that will also help us to follow His direction.

John 10:27 (NKJV) 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

Get knowledge. Get Wisdom. Get understanding.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-29-16

Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.

It’s important that we get understanding, or we could end up moving in the wrong thing, at the wrong time.

The Jews didn’t understand what Christ was doing on the cross. They were saying things like “why can’t God deliver Him now?”.

Matthew 27:43 (NKJV) 43 He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

They needed God’s understanding. Without it, they had no clue as to what was really happening.

Christ died for us on that cross. In that moment of His death, He made salvation possible for the world!!

His death brought freedom and Salvation to all who will put their faith in Him. He was the perfect, living sacrifice. Holy in all His ways! He had to die to save us.

If God had come at that time and delivered Him from the cross, we’d all end up in hell today. His death on the cross made a way for each one of us to be free.

But Christ did not stay dead. That is the miracle. On the 3rd day, God raised Him up, and He is ALIVE! Amen.

God will give us understanding. We all need it, because His way of doing things is going to be different than the natural way of doing things.

But with His understanding, it helps us to know why things are done the way they are; Why things happen the way they do.

There will be times we will not understand some things. But in those things, we must have faith and trust God with them.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-2-16

Proverbs 1:5 (NKJV) 5 A wise man will hear and increase learning, And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel…

God’s word has a lot to say when it comes to wisdom.

We’re encouraged to gain wisdom, listen to those with wisdom and heed words of wisdom.

When we’re young, we can be foolish and ignorant in so many ways. We can make a lot of mistakes as we try to find our way through situations we encounter.

It pays for us to seek the advice and counsel of those who are older than us and who have walked through many things in life. Experience has taught them a lot and we can learn much from them.

This is also true when it comes to learning new things, no matter how old or young we are. We can be advanced in our years and still lack knowledge and understanding In many things.

But if we follow God’s advice and seek counsel, we can continue to learn and gain understanding in new areas. And when we do this, it allows us to make choices that are sound.

And this can save us a lot of heartache, headaches and frustration in our lives.

So we encourage you to seek counsel when you need it. Asking questions of people who are more experienced is nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, it’s the smart thing to do.

Proverbs 19:20 (NKJV) 20 Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That you may be wise in your latter days.
