Proverbs Chapter 4 Discussion Page 5

I really needed this verse several months ago. It is true for me a female must guard her heart. Because we are so emotional that are heart sometimes leads us down the wrong path. Guarding my heart is the most important thing.

The story of a person with knowledge, who 's parents worked to instruct to righteousness.

This proverbs emphasizes on children to hear the instructions of their parents. Unfortunately, many parents give no instructions to their children, abandoning this role to teachers. Parents must learn to instruct for their instructions always bear on the conduct of the child throughout his life.For any parent to be negligent on this role is just gross irresponsibility.

What sticks out to me more than ever is that we have choice to choose good over evil. We have the choice to follow into the footstep of good over evil and that only wisdom and understanding is important to see when those situations presents themselves.

Praise the Lord! In this chapter God tells us how important it is to obtain wisdom and knowledge. Don t matter how old one gets seeking wisdom and knowledge should always be a goal. How can one share the good word and live righteous if he lacks wisdom and knowledge. I pray right now Lord that you will bless those who know you with more wisdom, knowledge, and understanding and for those who don t know you Lord touch their hearts that they will hear or see something and come asking what must they do to be saved in JESUS name and for His sake I pray! So be it! Amen!

Examine your choices, actions, decisions be sure they are the best for you at any particular point in time, make amends when and where necessary, be firm, assertive and consistent in that which is right and honourable at all times.

Make a right choice, on that choice therefore be single minded, focused and avoid distraction.

I have just recently rededicated myself to our Lord. I can 't think of a better way to jump start my walk with Him than by reading the Proverbs of Solomon. I believe Proverbs Chapt. 4 's instruction regarding wisdom and understanding is a foundation that I can build on.

My heart needs to be protected, it needs that force of prudence and diligence so that i may stay ground and have life in abundance the way it is supposed to be lived

Very Nice

pls i want 2 be born again.

Proverbs chapter 4 If I keep my mind and eyes on the word of Jesus my path will be clear

This speaks to me in such a profound way Solomon is through the Holy Spirit is telling me to put away my treacherous ways The lies the cheating and seek the Wisdom of the Most High God For to love God is to fear Him and do His will Take me Lord just as i am and mold me into that which you desire me to be Amen

that s my purpose is to serve god and pray for forgiveness and wisdom and understanding daily

As pastor Allan Always says Choose life and seek Wisdom above all else

Live for God and his wisdom and you will reap the rewards that God has to offer you We must remember that God is the creator of all living things and that we should praise him for everything that Goes on in our daily lives Basically Let Go Let God guide you

Wisdom speaks for a man, without wisdom and understanding we are incomplete. God is wisdom, He is understanding, ask for wisdom and understanding and it is yours.

read gods words for true knowledge and understanding.

God's wisdom is so paramount in life of Christians.It will keep you to stand firm in a right path and led you into the kingdom of God at the end your of your life. God bless!

I love this scripture so much. Wisdom is the principal thing.

This certainly is a good scripture for relationships. We have to safeguard or protect our heart. Don't follow your heart. The bible says it is treacherous. Protect your heart by reading God's Word, and letting Him influence it.

In otherwords..REPENT

though it cost all you have (NIV), though it cost your "name", your "street cred", your possessions your time, your relationships, your intellect, your reasoning, your entire being, what ever you think, seek His wisdom & truth, everyday, even though you may not understand, get onto your knees, open your bible and seek Jesus' face & His love.

I pray to God that he shall show me the true wisdom about myself

God is our father we have to follow Him like Abraham

salvation

true wisdom is priceless.GOD is the only one who gives true wisdom and with it comes knowelge and understanding.

Get wisdom, and keep on getting it filled with insight (understanding.) Knowledge alone doesn't help if you don't have wisdom, so acquire wisdom. Knowledge teaches you how to load a gun. But only wisdom would know when you should pull the trigger.. without that insight, you'd be a loaded gun, an accident looking for a place to happen! Get wisdom, and with all your getting, get understanding. How??? Through your spiritual relation with Christ. Let Him live richly in you, He will impart God's wisdom to you. He will make you wise. Obey Him, Listen to Him, and He will make you wise. Understand it's not your own thinking, it's His.

getting wisdom alone is not enough, Understanding which is the wellspring of life is paramount.

I found this 'Proverb' in an old book - The Birthday Book Of Scripture, for April 14. I take its meaning as a past tense, asking us to examine our actions - cause - for understanding effect. An inventory of a path travelled. It has resonated a profound message to my writing, a memoir inspired by my late daughter, Lesley, born on April 14. Her life's purpose established at birth, that we (I) would find meaning in her path up to her death, and after. How do I understand? Maybe I won't, but I must nonetheless ponder, examine to let all her ways be established, marked. If one takes its meaning in purely present tense it negates purpose for self examination, (responsibility?) - a path travelled. Examining actions taken - history, can enlighten. Enlightenment impacts present and future. My little book attributes authorship to:
1 Cor. xvi 14.
