The passage I read was Job 28:12-28
You can find that passage here:
My summary of the passage is this:
You cannot find wisdom.
It cannot be bought. It is worth
more than silver & gold, and any other precious stones. It can’t be seen with the eye. Only God knows the way to wisdom and He tells
us it is through respecting Him and turning from sin. He says it is through a reverent fear of the
Lord that we can get wisdom, and that if we shun (turn away from) evil we can
have understanding.
As I reflect:
There is no wise man that doesn’t fear the Lord (though many
unsaved have thought that they showed wisdom in that they have accrued great
physical wealth). I say they have sold
their soul and showed a great lack of wisdom as well as a lack of understanding
in searching out the earth to gain what can only be gotten in the Lord. It is the humble, the servants that kneel at
the feet of the King of Glory which can understand and gain wisdom. True wisdom comes only from the Lord… Where
else could one go? Turn away from sin
and turn to the giver of all good things.
My response to the Lord:
“Oh Most Holy Father, I am unworthy to approach your
throne. Humbly I bow before your majesty
and thank your Holy Spirit for delivering my voice to you and your message to
me. I cannot repay the debt that your
Son took from me on the cross. But Lord,
I ask that you would through your Holy Spirit please use my life for your glory
to further your kingdom. Apart from you,
I know nothing… I am nothing without
you. Father work in me and through me
that you would be glorified. In Jesus
name. “
