  • Biodun Williams on Proverbs 2 - 12 years ago
    This second chapter of the book of Proverbs, is like others, depending upon what they contains. It invites whoever dares to believe, towards the God type of humility, where the eye gates, the ear gates and the mouth gate are used in such ways that their usages becomes pleasing to God ( Genesis 15:6; Hosea 10:12). In actual fact, it confirms that there are no other ways into getting in the things of holy righteousness except through godly obedience ( 1 Timothy 3:16).- and then such a person cannot but learn and conduct Himself in accordance with the Word of God. In other words how to walk in love, becomes known and imparted, in such a way that he conducts himself humbly, committed and, yet in agreement with the dictates of godliness. The reason being that, as far as the truths of God�s Word are concerned, there are assured blessings on the other side of obedience. God, will never default on His Word- hence it is wise and worthwhile to take Him at His Word. This reveals and signifies that, God, in His faithfulness, desires to bless and impart whoever loves and believes Him through Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and has the necessary knowledge and wisdom that pertains to the task He has for them. God is the giver of whatever good things that man is after on this planet that are in consonant with divinity. That refers to such things that pertains to life and godliness- thus the importance of hearkening to His Word ( 2 Peter 1:3-7). God is a shield and buckler to those that love and honor Him, Psalm 3:3; Psalm 18:2; Psalm 119:14; Proverbs 30:5; 2 Corinthians 1:20), and His promises, are yea and Amen. Blessed be the name of the LORD forever!
