THE SOURCE OF WISDOM
Proverbs 1:8-9 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
- God is the fountain of wisdom himself, and by his spirit, has never left us without a word.
- He sends us hope, comfort, peace and direction for life by His spirit, through various channels, but above all is his Word (the Scriptures) and those who yeild, find life therein.
- By the spirit, this wisdom is preserved and passed on to generations through custodians for the benefit of those whose walk on earth depended on it.
- Though God could give us a word through those in authority over us, eg., parents, guardian, tutors, leaders, etc. Looking beyond the vessel, attention must be laced with discernment, to receive that which is from the spirit; the greatest tutor, guide, helper and possesor of all authority. For even that which is of the spirit could look nothing like it when disguised in the fraity of humanity. Regardless, our submission is proof of sonship (Romans 8:14), hence, we ought to discern his move even in the little or seemingly weak things.
