A Daily Devotional – MESSIAH – The Eternal Word
Comment: One thing about the New England
weather is the word “change” the weather in this neck of the woods changes
rapidly… Could be good, could be bad; but no doubt it is a personal choice or
we may move. Not that moving would help; since, if we are of the complaining
type I am sure we would find plenty to complain about somewhere else. The fact
is that the world around us is full
of weather. All of which is created and controlled by the Creator God, who is
none other than Messiah/Jesus. Often, people give no connection to the thought
that Messiah controls all of the world and everything contained in it, even you
and me.
Devotional:
When
was the last time you looked intently at Proverbs chapter 8? I do not know all
of the arguments over this section of Proverbs in detail, but I have heard of
them. The main thrust of these are, ‘just who is Solomon the writer, of.
Remember; “All scripture is given by inspiration of
God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for
instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be compete thoroughly equipped
for every good work. Some key of the thoughts for our devotional this morning
are ‘inspiration and equipped’
.
Solomon is the instrument that the LORD God used to
write the important information found in Proverbs 8, just as the apostle Paul
is the instrument that God used to pen the words of 1 Timothy 3. This helps me
to understand the words, ‘all scripture’! Also, we have a tour guide, His name
is God the Holy Spirit, He alone will and “now get this” does not speak of His
own. He takes that information about Messiah/Jesus and explains this to us; see
John 6:13-15.
The communicator of Proverbs Eight is the Wisdom and
Understanding of God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. (God in all of
His capacity) This wonderful section of Proverbs allows you and me the
opportunity through the words of Solomon to see that everything Created by God,
was ‘for GOD’. Yet because of the Love of God, He willingly shares much of what
belongs to Him with YOU and ME. Wow! What an Awesome God we serve.
In ‘first person’ conversation Wisdom and
Understanding speak directly to us, (1) does not wisdom cry out and
understanding lift her voice? (8) All the words of my mouth are with
Righteousness. (12) “I” wisdom, dwell with prudence…” (17) I love those who
love me. Verse after verse, wisdom and understanding under the guidance of Elohim,
reveals to us that; without God, even wisdom and understanding would have not
residing place in God’s Creation. Notice Proverbs 8:22-30.
