Want to be wise...




“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom!” (Proverbs 1:7) The Bible teaches this we say that we understand this, but so many times in the modern church we don’t exercise fear when we are dealing with our Lord or wisdom! First, we must understand the word “fear” being used in this text means respect, revered or reverence. This is not the fear as we often equate with our 21st century thought process. We are to revere our Lord! We are to hold Him in high regard and esteem. Somehow the North American Church has been able to compartmentalize God so that He fits nicely in our little lives or so we think. God can not be compartmentalized. He is God! And truly revering Him for who He is...is the beginning of wisdom! He is to be the object of all of our affection! He deserves all of our worship! Draw close to Him today! Let God have total control of your life! Make Him your First Priority, and you will be on your way to true wisdom! I love you all!
