We read Proverbs 14 today in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan. Look at verses 26-27:
26 In the reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord there is strong confidence, and His children shall always have a place of refuge. 27 Reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, that one may avoid the snares of death.
We have looked at the fear of the Lord before, so we know that this refers to the reverence, respect and awe that we are to have for WHO He is! When we have THAT attitude toward the One, True, Most High, Living, Almighty God of the Bible, there is no person or circumstance that can keep us from succeeding at whatever we lay our hands to in obedience to HIS plan for our lives! THAT should give you great confidence! No other person can affect your life unless you allow them to! Going right along with this is verse 6 that says this:
6 A scoffer seeks Wisdom in vain [for his very attitude blinds and deafens him to it], but knowledge is easy to him who [being teachable] understands.
Stay in that place of always being in awe of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Learn to recognize and appreciate each person of the Godhead and they will become more real and identifiable to you. When you do that, THEN you will see the Word of God becoming more "logical" as the understanding comes. You will begin to deal more wisely and to have more success at whatever you do! WISDOM! You NEED it, so go get it! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "This Is Our God":
Shalom in Him!
