My reading today was Proverbs 2 and Galatians 1, it's interesting looking at these side by side because Proverbs 2 is about wisdom and states "When wisdom enters your heart and knowledge is pleasant to your soul, discretion will preserve you; understanding will keep you, to deliver you from the way of evil." (v.10-12) In Galatians 1 Paul is putting out a warning for those who preach another gospel saying "I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed. For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.”
Galatians 1:6-10 NKJV
See Gods word is so good, we are promised wisdom in the bible, if we seek knowledge we will have understanding to see those who are trying to prevent the truth. We will be delivered from people who have ulterior motives (Proverbs 2:16) This is the way when we seek God and not man.
It's not easy always living in this word, people become idols to us, and it's so easy to be lead astray but Gods word has to be the authority in our lives and when it truly is we are promised to see clearly the way of the truth! #truth #Jesus #wisdom
