Proverbs for Life
Posted by Admin in Featured Articles on 03 12th, 2009 | one response
The study of wisdom literature, and more specifically the book of Proverbs, can be a life changer. The tongue-in-cheek question, “Did it change your life?” becomes silly when you see how the study of this ancient book can change the hearts of men. And not only are their lives changed, the lives of those around them change as well.
- Proverbs will draw you closer to God. Just as the first chapter says, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
- Your relationship with Him becomes richer, as does your relationship with others.
- The result is beyond words, leading to fullness life as only our Savior is able to provide.
Join us as we take this journey. It’s only 31 weeks (a chapter a week) the first time around. The second and third times reveal a newness and freshness as you journey deeper into the discipline. The deeper you go, the deeper it gets. And the better you get if you are applying the principles.
Proverbs 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
Here are some definitions for “WISDOM” you may find useful.
Wisdom: highly developed skill and insight applied at the right time to produce the right results for all the right reasons.
Wisdom: trusting God enough to believe him more than you believe yourself. Trusting God enough to act on his word.
Wisdom: knowing God, surrendering to God.
