Butterfly Lady
Proverbs 3: 13
Happy is the person who finds wisdom and the one who gains understanding; For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, and her grain than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies, and all the things you may desire cannot compare with her. Length of days is in her right hand, in her left hand are riches and honour. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, and happy are all who retain her. Prov 3:21 So let them not depart from your eyes. Keep sound wisdom and discretion; so they will be life to your soul and grace to your neck. Then you will walk safely in your way. Prov 4:4 So let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands, and live. Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. Wisdom is the principle thing; Therefore get wisdom, and in all your getting, get understanding. Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honors, when you embrace her. She will place on your head an ornament of grace; A crown of glory she will deliver you. Hear my beloved children, and receive my sayings, and the years of your life will be many. I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hindered, and when you run, you will not stumble. Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go; Keep her, for she is your life.
Key words and their interpretations
1.The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. What does fear of the Lord mean? Holy Awe! Reverential fear, Our God is an all consuming fire, He knows every hidden and secret thing. He knows what your thoughts are and he knows what is in your heart.
2. What are the intents of Gods Commandments? In Proverbs 6:23 Say’s The commandment is a lamp and the law is light; And reproofs of instruction are the way of life. In the original Hebrew bible the word for “Torah” means simply to guide or to teach. The meaning of the word command is therefore for teaching of doctrine or instruction. I wanted to emphasis this because because people don’t often think to put bible words into there original context. And meaning in there original Hebrew language. Words such as commandment or law can sound harsh Thus we are easily offended by there interpretation. Because they can if not properly studied give a wrong impression. For Gods word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. The entrance of his word gives light. Illumination is good as it opens up the way so we can clearly see. When we truly learn to search for God in the scriptures with all of our hearts. God promises in Jeremiah 29:13 If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.
Prov 4:18 The path of the just is like the shinning sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day. In John 8:12 Jesus spoke to them saying, ”I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.
