Why search God’s promises!
Romans 15:4 give us assurances to the word of God.
For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
For me I have found to remain close to the word of God is benefit for me in all things, to search out his word seeking wisdom and understanding within the scriptures. Proverbs 4 is one of the scriptures I keep close to my heart to remind me God has not denied me anything but that all things are possible.
NKJ Mark 9:23 Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." NKJ Mark 10:27 But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible."
Solomon was granted much wisdom so I keep his writing about understanding close to my heart for he looked to wisdom as his sister!
NKJ Proverbs 4:1 Hear, my children, the instruction of a father, And give attention to know understanding; 2 For I give you good doctrine: Do not forsake my law. 3 When I was my father's son, Tender and the only one in the sight of my mother, 4 He also taught me, and said to me: "Let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands, and live. 5 Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. 6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. 8 Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her. 9 She will place on your head an ornament of grace; A crown of glory she will deliver to you." 10 Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And the years of your life will be many. 11 I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. 13 Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go; Keep her, for she is your life. 14 Do not enter the path of the wicked, And do not walk in the way of evil. 15 Avoid it, do not travel on it; Turn away from it and pass on. 16 For they do not sleep unless they have done evil; And their sleep is taken away unless they make someone fall. 17 For they eat the bread of wickedness, And drink the wine of violence. 18 But the path of the just is like the shining sun, That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day. 19 The way of the wicked is like darkness; They do not know what makes them stumble. 20 My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. 21 Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; 22 For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh. 23 Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life. 24 Put away from you a deceitful mouth, And put perverse lips far from you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead, And your eyelids look right before you. 26 Ponder the path of your feet, And let all your ways be established. 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.
So you see I seek understanding and desire wisdom to be as close to me as a sister to gain understanding which God gives forth abundantly! Therefore I am at this point in my life to seek out God’s promises in the word of God as that is how the Holy Spirit is guiding me…
I have always been quick and quip in saying I am standing on the promises of God…I believe God is telling me it is time for me to have understanding of those promises…God willing…
That’s all for today I leave you with a blessing
That God grow your inner man in both grace and understanding in Jesus Name….
