WISDOM UNDERSTANDING AND KNOWLEDGE

The word tells us these things are beneficial to our health, our soul, and our safety. The word says that with these when we lie down we will not be afraid but that our sleep will be sweet. How many of us have trouble sleeping from time to time? Sounds like if we do, we need to be seeking His wisdom, and understanding and knowledge. The word goes on to say that we will not stumble, that we will be sure footed and walk safely in our way, it says that we can have confidence in our foot not being caught by the enemy. AMEN!

Prov 3 v 19-26.....The Lord by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding He established the heavens; by His knowledge the depths were broken up, and clouds drop down the dew. My son, let them not depart from your eyes. Keep sound wisdom and discretion; so they will be life to your soul and grace to your neck. Then you will walk safely in your way, and your foot will not stumble. When you lie down, you will not be afraid; yes you will lie down, and your sleep will be sweet. Do not be afraid of sudden terror, nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes; for the Lord will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being caught.......

The word tells us that when we trust in the Lord and lean on Him, and not look to our own understanding, that He will direct our paths for us. Now how many know, that if the Lord is directing your path, He is not going to lead you the wrong way? There are miracles in the word that we do not always understand. But the Lord says it is not in our understanding but in His. He tells us to not be wise in our own eyes. When our wisdom comes from the Lord, we will have health and strength added to us.

Prov. 3 v 5-8.....Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil, it will be health to your flesh and strength to your bones......

The Lord tells us that His ways are not our ways. His ways and thoughts are higher than our ways.

IS 55 v 8-9....."For My thoughts are not your thoughts. nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth,so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts higher than your thoughts".......

So when people question how you can believe you are healed when the world says you are sick, or how you can believe in prosperity when the prices of things skyrocket. You can answer with confidence that you do not trust in the things of the world, but in the Truth of the Word. That the word says your God will supply all your needs. That your confidence is in Him. AMEN!

Phil 4 v 19....And my God shall supply all your need, according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.........

Where can we find this confidence, this protection, this wisdom, this understanding and knowledge?

STAY IN THE WORD!
