Email from Abiding Place Daily Bread – November 8, 2024 (The Sixth Day – Genesis 1:24-31) Proverbs 2:2 – Cause your ear to be attentive to wisdom and incline your heart to understanding. God’s Word Is Wisdom & Obedience Brings Reward Every word that proceeds from the mouth of God is wisdom. If we are going to walk in the many blessings and insights of God’s wisdom, then we are going to have to obey His instructions. God’s wisdom instructs us in the ways of life and leads us in the knowledge of the Almighty. If we want to enjoy the blessings of God’s abundant life, then we must give ourselves to obey the words which His wisdom and instruction dictate so we can depart from the snares of darkness and death (Proverbs 13:14, 14:27). There are many who have made the mistake of thinking that just by memorizing the Scriptures and going to Church they should be able to enter into the blessings of God. However, it is essential to understand how one must be willing to obey the Word of God and be doers of the things He says (James 1:7-8, 22; Matthew 6:24, 7:21,24, 12:50; Luke 6:46-48, 11:28; John 14:15,21, 15:10; 1 John 5:2). If we are willing to give ourselves over to live in obedience to what God has said, then we will discover the glorious reward only found in obedience to His Word (Proverbs 3:16-18, 6:23; Psalms 19:11).
