Good morning, afternoon, evening, night
As i was reading through some old devotional books that i have. The devotional book is a daily thing and the verses that they gave was like from the book Proverbs. So in my mind say that the book of Proverbs must be a powerful book that speck into life very simply. Then after that i went searching through some seminar material. To my surprise that all the seminar book told me to read the book of Proverbs daily. a chapter a day. For example, today is the 26th of june, so you read chapter 26.
So the book of Proverbs is a cool book. i know many of you will say that chapter does not apply with my day i have, some the opposite. But you see the book of Proverbs is full of wisdom and knowledge to understand this world and God. i know it some time does not apply but read it, maybe it will apply to on a next day or another day.
Proverbs, is a book written by Solomon, son of David. Solomon was a great king in Israel. He wanted to rule Israel with understanding of his people and he needed to give good wisdom or judgment to the people. His wisdom and understanding travel far. which also many rules ask for advise from him. i believe Solomon wrote many many books. But in the Bible we got Proverbs, Song of Solomon and Ecclesiastes. i think i can say that Solomon had a lot of wisdom and understanding during his reign with God and fall in the end. Well, maybe his lifestyle we should not follow it but Solomon wisdom that he has given us in Proverbs, should be keep inside our hearts. i not saying that you should read Solomon books only, is that he books are for us to understand God and look at God's point if view. All the books of the bible are full of wisdom, it was given from God himself to the people He has entrusted them to record the events and things and saying from God.
The book of Proverbs, i think it speaks to our soul. it help us to understand things better. Give us the wisdom to do thing more wiser. Pray a prayer of wanting wisdom. i think it can really help you in life, it like giving you a purpose in life. Proverbs has 31 chapters. one for each day. Maybe what you can do is read after your devotion time or before it. Some times i wish that Psalms should have 365 chapters. i think it would be fun reading 365 chapters. But yea, God has given His wisdom to us through the book of Proverbs. i can tell you, every time i read Proverbs, i start having different views of that chapter i read. it becomes more interesting, and the wisdom that Solomon has provided to us to use daily. try it out, is worth reading it. If you don't understand it, never mind. The answers will come to you. God will make sure you understand Him. I personally believe that you read the book of proverbs daily, one day - one chapter, through out the 12 months, you be very close with God. is like David, the person after God's heart.
Take up the challenge, nothing is to late for God. Start
Yours truly
