 ‘Above all and before all, do this: get wisdom! Write this at the top of your list: Get understanding. Throw your arms around her – believe me, you won’t regret it, Never let her go – she’ll make your life glorious. She’ll garland your life with grace, she’ll festoon your days with beauty’. Proverbs 4:7-9 MSG The King James Version of today’s scripture starts by saying ‘wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom’. Make it your priority to obtain the mind of God concerning everything before you act. If you would......

‘Honour the Lord with your possessions, And with the first fruits of all your increase; so your bans will be filled with plenty, and our vast will overflow with new wine’. Proverbs 3:9-10 NKJV This scripture states clearly the way to have abundance. I like the message version: ‘Honour God with everything you own; give him the first and the best. Your barns will burst; your wine vast will brim over’. You now have in your hands the blueprint for the path to increase and great wealth. This is the lifestyle of......

‘Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones’. Proverbs 3:5-8 NKJV At the beginning of a new year, new job or a new phase of life; say a fresh marriage relationship, for example; we are filled with fresh hopes. New beginning presents fresh opportunities & aspirations.......

“My son, forget not my law or teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments; for length of days and years of a life (worth living) and tranquility (inward and outward and continuing through old age till death), these shall they add to you”. Proverbs 3:1-2 Amp I would like us to meditate on these two verses of scriptures. It gives a very simple but precise key to a good life! I like the contemporary English version; ‘My child, remember my teachings and instructions and obey them completely. They will help you......

 ‘My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; …Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God’ Proverbs 2:1-5   The scripture makes it clear to us that ‘the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom’ (Pr. 1:7). Many times the concept of ‘the fear of the Lord’ sounds mysterious and scary. In today’s scripture, the Lord has laid it plain to us how to walk in reverential fear of God. Receive God’s word, and hide it in......

“By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and honour, and life” Proverbs 22:4   Everyone desires a satisfying life, marked with riches and honour. My prayer is that this year will be such for you, in Jesus name. The question is; ‘how do we get that kind of life?’ Today’s scripture gives us the answer – by humility and the fear of the Lord. So, determine to cooperate with God so that this year will be characterised by riches, honour and complete satisfaction. Humility is generally defined in the......

‘The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction’                                          Proverbs 4:7   The message version says ‘start with God – the first step in learning is bowing down to God; only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning’. The truth is this; the more of God you know and the more you imbibe God’s ways, the more wisdom in dealing with all life’s issues you possess. Job 28:20 – 28 in Message version is a very interesting read… “So, where does Wisdom......

‘Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all your getting, get understanding’                                    Proverbs  4:7   After you have committed your way to the Lord in the New Year; you need the wisdom to navigate your way through the entire year. Our scripture today makes it clear that your principal pursuit should be for wisdom, and I believe it is available otherwise God would not say we should ‘get it’. Eccl 10:15 says ‘The labour of the foolish wearieth every one of them; because he knoweth not how to......

Begin with God  In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth    Gen 1:1 At the beginning of all things, we see God. He is the origin and the creator of all things. All things found their start in Him. The scripture says all things hold together in Christ (Col 1:17). At the beginning of every phase of our lives, it is an opportunity to establish God at the helms of our affairs, and commit all things to His hands afresh. It has become a tradition for people at the beginning......
