Good morning. For
something much more edifying, let's look again in Proverbs. Speaking of God's
Commandments: bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your
heart. It's not just for your head, it's for your heart. There's too many
Christians who have memorized scripture; but it stays in their head, it never
goes to their heart. However you should have them at your fingertips; so that
when a situation arises, you have them at hand. You don't have to look them up.
Say to wisdom "you are my sister" and call understanding your
intimate friend. It's not just knowledge that will bring you the victory; it's
wisdom and understanding. Too many times knowledge brings arrogance. I know
more than you, so I'm better than you. Does not wisdom call, and understanding
lift up her voice? Take my instruction, and not silver. And knowledge rather
than choicest gold. For wisdom is better than; and all desirable things cannot
compare with her. No matter how many things you have, you can lose them
overnight and you won't be happy anyway. The fear of the Lord is to hate evil;
pride and arrogance and the evil way, and the perverted mouth, I hate. Counsel
is mine and sound wisdom; I am understanding, power is mine. True power is not
in things or knowledge but in sound wisdom and understanding. Father thank You
for giving the reader wisdom and understanding. Provide him/her everything that
he/she needs. Place Your healing hand upon him/her and quickly bring him/her
health.
Unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God
Good morning. While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. Jesus was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men. Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. It doesn’t say, but I assume it is still during this time of the Passover. This man came to Jesus by night. Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do the signs that You do unless God is with him. It just said that the people believed in His name because of the signs He was doing; yet it does not say what those signs were. Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. That is why unbelievers cannot tell what is of the kingdom of God and what is not – they’re not born again. Nicodemus doesn’t have a clue. How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he? Unless one is born of water and the Spirit ...
