Heavenly Wisdom For Your Earthly Walk
Proverbs is the book of heavenly wisdom for your earthly walk. Solomon states its purpose in the second verse: “To know wisdom and instruction (1:2). Wisdom in life begins with the fear of the Lord (1:7). I would that we all may go into the book of Proverbs that we may know wisdom when we hear it. I being an apostle do not give you counseling but spiritual advice which comes from God. Spiritual advice that comes from God is a word of wisdom. If we receive, apply and live the word we are wise if we reject the word we are a fool.
The fool Self-destruction
When people rebel against God, they end up destroying themselves. They fall by their own wickedness Proverbs 11:5 and are snared by the own transgressions Proverbs 29:6. Ponder the timeliness of God’s wisdom as you consider the results of abortion, drug abuse, broken homes, homosexuality and lifetime decisions being made without seeking guidance from God in our day.
So let us take a look at the first four chapters in the book of Proverbs.

When what you want doesn't happen, learn to want what does.
