Minu poeg, kui sa mu sõnad vastu võtad, ja peida mu käsud sinuga; Nii et sa kallutad oma kõrva tarkuse poole, ja rakenda oma südant mõistmisele; Jah, kui sa nutad teadmiste järele, and liftest up the voice for understanding; Kui sa otsid teda hõbedana, ja otsige teda nagu peidetud aardeid; Siis sa mõistad Issanda kartust, and find the knowledge of God. For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints. Then shalt thou understand righteousness, ja kohtuotsus, ja omakapital; jah, iga hea tee. (Vanasõnad 2:1-9)
There is so much wisdom in the book of Proverbs and this wisdom will never fade. This not only applies to the Book of Proverbs but to the whole Word of God.
The only visible thing, we have from God in the natural realm in this world is the Bible. Every word in the Bible represents God.
When you read God’s Word, every word of God opens a door in the spirit. When the Word takes hold of your heart and you obey the Word and become a doer of the words of God, then the written Word becomes the living Word in your life.
How do you get to know God?
When you began to read and study the Word of God, sa saad Jumalat tundma. I think a lot of Christians are not aware of the treasure they have in their houses. I don’t think that any hotel knows what kind of treasures they have in their rooms. If they only knew…
Sometimes you may think, that you know the Bible already. Maybe you read fast and skip a lot of scriptures because you’ve read them before and know the stories. But because of this behavior, you will miss out a lot. Don’t read your Bible on autopilot!
How to read the Bible?
The way to read the Bible is of course in the Holy Spirit and to read the Bible slowly and not fast. Read the Bible word by word in the right context and let the words of God enter your mind. Think about the words of God, meditate on them so that they will sink into your heart and abide in you.
Is the Bible boring?
Kui keegi ütleb, that the Bible is a boring and outdated Book, then this person doesn’t read the Bible in the right manner or doesn’t read the Bible at all. The Bible is the most fantastic, fascinated and real Book on earth. The Bible is not outdated, but still applies today and will always apply.
Kuid, if you are carnal and/or your spirit is not raised from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit, you will not understand and comprehend the Bible. But you shall consider the Bible boring and outdated.
Kuidas tarkust omandada?
Hästi, let’s go back to Proverbs 2. Esimene 9 verses of Proverbs 2 teach us how to gain wisdom.
Verse 1 starts with the importance of hearing God’s word and keeping Gods’ words with you. When you keep God’s words with you, you will have to protect them with your life. Guard the words of God and let no one steal them from you.
What God says is the truth. Seetõttu, let no man say something else.
Maybe you ask yourself: “How can the words be stolen?”
Vastus on lihtne, by the opinions and advice of ‘wrong’ sõbrad, tuttavad, kolleegid, uskmatud, and unregenerated family members, jne. And it doesn’t stop here.
What about psühholoogid, meedium; ajalehed, ajakirjad, social media and let’s not forget the televiisor.
The television produces unbelief
Television is one of the main sources, which produce unbelief. Näiteks,
The Word teaches us to not commit adultery and fornication, aga mida me televisioonist näeme? Filmides, seebid, sarja inimesed panevad toime abielurikkumise ja hooruse, ja seda peetakse normaalseks.
Sõna õpetab meid mitte kartma, aga mida me televisioonis näeme ja õpime? Televiisor külvab inimeste ellu pidevalt hirme.
Sõna õpetab mitte muretsema, aga mida me televisioonis näeme ja õpetame? Ja nii edasi.
Pidage meeles, et iga sisend, mis on vastuolus Jumala Sõnaga, aeglustab teie meele uuendamist ja pühitsuse protsessi.
Jumal tahab asju oma Sõna kaudu ilmutada
Kui sina lugeda ja võta vastu Jumala sõnu, korda need sõnad ja laske neil oma südamesse vajuda, sa saad kohaldada teie süda mõistmisele.
Otsige Jumala Sõnas nende peidetud aarete eest. Jumal on andnud sulle pärandi ja sa saad teada, mida sa oled pärinud vaid Jumala Sõna otsides ja uurides. Ta tahab neid asju sulle paljastada, Tema sõna läbi.
When you seek His truth like hidden treasures, then you shall understand the fear of the Lord and you will find the knowledge of God and gain wisdom.
God gives wisdom. Sound wisdom is for the righteous; pühakud, who are in Christ Jesus. When you walk in Christ; the Word and walk upright, with integrity, then He is your Protector, your Shield (Buckler). He guards and protects you, He watches over you and preserves your way, isn’t that a relief?
You will gain wisdom and will understand and discern righteousness and judgment and equity. You will know every good path; every good way.
