Affirmation of God: I seek the riches of understanding.

 

Today’s Scripture: Proverbs 2:4 ESV: if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures,

What are you willing to work overtime for? What motivates you to work at all costs?

We have all sacrificed sleep, family and routine to gain extra money. That’s only a few dollars and I am questioning what I and you are willing to trade for the understanding and Wisdom of God. We are instructed to seek understanding as silver. How hard to we really seek? Do we seek the understanding of God as hard as we seek riches or other desires? Do we have a sense of urgency?

The understanding of God lasts forever and imparts much more wealth into the lives it touches. How long did that last overtime check or bonus last you?

The riches of the understanding and Wisdom of God last forever and benefits many more people. This is the silver I seek. How about you?  How hard are you willing to work to gain the understanding of God?

Today’s Prayer: Father God I praise you! I seek after Your Wisdom and Your understanding. I need Your understanding LORD. My life and the life of others depend on it. Please give me the energy and the ability to seek after Your understanding. The riches of Your understanding are what I seek. Amen
