Some New Old Stuff
April 19, 2024

DAILY PROVERB:

Proverbs 10:10-13
He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall. The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked. Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins. In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

OUTLOOK ON THE IN BOOK:

        Archaeologists are continually finding new old stuff. The older the thing they discover, the more valuable it becomes. In fact, one might even argue that if they could uncover the oldest thing ever to exist in the universe, it would be the most valuable possession of all. Well, if you’ll share this knowledge with everyone, I’ll reveal to you where it can be found. It’s written in the pages of God’s Word; it’s Wisdom, embodied in the person of Jesus Christ.

      Wisdom existed alongside Christ before the Earth was ever created. I understand that this concept might be challenging to grasp. In our modern, time-conscious world, it’s difficult to contemplate a time before time itself. However, wisdom was present in Christ before the creation of the Earth, before the formation of even a single angel, and before the trinity brought any planet into existence in the entire universe. God’s wisdom conceived, created, designed, developed, and continues to uphold and harmoniously govern everything beyond our imagination.

      Our verses state, “In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found.” All that we were, are today, and aspire to become is enveloped in God’s wisdom. When time ceases to exist, wisdom will endure. When Earth, as we know it, ceases to exist, wisdom will persist.

      The most valuable entity in all of time and eternity, both then and now, is Godly Wisdom. The best part is that you can possess some of it today if you desire. Do you want to acquire a piece of this Ancient Wisdom?

     

THE WORD WALKING IN ME:

     James 1:5 says this; “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” Get some of God’s wisdom through His Word today.

What can you do today to share God’s Wisdom with a friend?

IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:

Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this Passage, and todays Devotion?

Do I find within this reading a CHALLENGE for my life?

What are one or two things I WILL DO today or this week to accept that CHALLENGE?
