Proverbs - Get It!

Proverbs 4:5-7

 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not;

neither decline from the words of my mouth.

 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee:

love her, and she shall keep thee.

 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom:

and with all thy getting get understanding.

                   If the Lord tells us to get wisdom we must not have it naturally.  It isn’t until we realized this that we will humble ourselves and ask Him for it.  Is there a situation in you life today that you find yourself a bit frustrated by?  You need wisdom.  You need to get it.

                   Then, when you and I get that wisdom we must not forsake it.  We must continue doing those things that the Lord has instructed us to do.  This will result in our lives being preserved and not succumbing to the decay the trials and pressures are trying to inflict upon our quality of life.

                   We always have a list of things we either ‘need’ or ‘want’.  Here we are instructed to get wisdom and understanding above everything - first on the shopping list, first on the wish list, first on the errand list - GET WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING!
