Treasures

Wisdom's Value

Solomon has taken God's law and has made it his own by faith for teaching and instructing. When one values God's law and the wisdom that it brings, we have rich treasures that can not be depleted to store in our hearts. A treasure above all the worldly material treasures we can accumulate, for these can rust and corrode disintegrating back into the earth by which they were made.

​Proverbs 2:1-12 states; "My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God; For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity, guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints. Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity, every good path; for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul; discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you, delivering you from the way of evil..."

LORD, I come to you today with a humble heart. Your ways are much higher than my ways and your thoughts higher than mine. O that I would listen to your instruction and adhere to your words. I fall short so many times. Please forgive me of my sin. Help me to recall your words when life struggles happen. Thank you for the wonderful treasures you bestow on  those that love you. Your word will not come back void. Your word is a shield of protection and a light unto my path leading me in the way everlasting. I love you LORD and I lift my voice in worship to you. May it be a pleasing sound and a sweet aroma. It is in Jesus name I pray. Amen.
