Proverbs
The words of wisdom will continue, I have been short on time lately. Look for the words of wisdom to continue this week, plus for a blog entitled, "Spiritual Authority".
Continue
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
This scripture sums up the gospel well. This scripture gives us the apostle’s doctrine. This scripture gives us the plan of salvation. This scripture assures us that we must repent. This scripture clearly lets us know how to be baptized, in Jesus name. This scripture lets us know the Holy Ghost is for us, for those with an obedient heart. This scripture was spoken by the man that had the keys. I love this scripture! Obey it!
If baptism is required for remission then the name is as much required. Baptism does nothing for us without the name, and that name is Jesus. Acts 4:10-12. And without water and spirit birth we will not be a part of the kingdom of God. Preach the word, teach the word, believe the word, and obey the word! Without the foundation we will not stand.
Acts 2:42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

Words of Wisdom: Proverbs Chapter 3 & 4
I have combined these two chapters because yesterday I didn't have the time to post a blog.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
Proverbs 4:13 Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.
Proverbs 4:14 Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.
Proverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
Proverbs 4:24 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.
Proverbs 4:25 Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
Proverbs 4:26 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.
Proverbs 4:27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.
Let God direct you by his word. Don't look to your own human intelligence, emotions, nor wisdom. Look toward God and let him direct you. Don't look to the right, nor to the left. Nothing off the path has anything to offer us, what we need (all we need) is on the path. Let the word direct your steps. Every voice that speaks contrary to truth needs to be gone from our lives, because those voices are subverting whole houses. Any voice besides those preaching truth should not be of influence in the lives of those in the church. Everything to the right or to the left is destruction, but on the path their is safety. Stay with Jesus, stay with the word.

Word of Wisdom:Proverbs Chapter 2
Proverbs 2:11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
Wisdom! That's the them of Proverbs. Well its that wisdom, not earthly wisdom, but that Godly wisdom that will preserve thee. It will keep thee from the strange woman, wisdom will help us to understand and walk with a clear focus. Don't look to the right nor to the left, keep your focus on God! And remember what James wrote, if you lack wisdom just ask God for the right wisdom to direct your life. Pray for his will, God will never fail you.
We need discretion to tell what is and isn't of God, remember try to try the spirits! And understanding, we need that opened so we can clearly understand the scriptures (truth). Read the word, believe the word, and obey the word!

Word of Wisdom: Proverbs Chapter 1
Proverbs 1:33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
There is a lot in the first chapter of Proverbs, but the last verse seems to sum it up very well. Basically it's saying just do what God says to do, and everything will work out for your good. As verse 5 in chapter one says, "A wise man will hear, and increase learning." We must accept the teaching and preaching of God's word in order to live a good life. This chapter lets us know that if you despise such learning (wisdom and instruction) you are a fool (verse 7), and that a fear of God is required of us. It goes on to warn us not to follow those that want to rebel and wait to shed the blood of the innocent. We better watch what nets we set, and what pits we dig. They could be to our own down fall. Wisdom is crying out, trying to persuade men to follow God, he gives safety!
Proverbs1:29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
Provers 1:30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
Proverbs 1:31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
But men still attempt to follow their own way, and their own devices. So they will eat of the fruit which they produce. Reminds me of "be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7)
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: (Isaiah 1:19) Choose to obey God, and eat the good fruit!

Stedfast
Update on upcoming blogs:
Within the next two weeks I hope to finally finishing putting together a blog on Spiritual Authority. I know sometime back I first mentioned it, but time has not allowed me to finish it up. Just wanted to make sure I let everyone that reads my blog know that I haven't forgotten about that topic I mentioned a few weeks back, unfortunately I wasn't able to make it my next blog like I had originally said/planned.
Also hope to everyday update my blog for the next month with "Words of Wisdom,"starting today. Drawing from a chapter of Proverbs each day.
Thanks for all those that read this blog, and for all those who comment on it so kindly. With viewers from America, to Germany, to Russia, and many more countries; I am so glad for them all. Hopefully inspiration, and truth has found it's way into many lives.
A few scriptures about steadfastness that I love:
1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye STEDFAST, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Hebrews 3:14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence STEDFAST unto the end.
Acts 2:42 And they continued STEDFASTLY in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
BE STEDFAST in TRUTH!

Serve Him!
2 Corinthians 7:1Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
James 1:21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
God has never liked doublemindness, and a double minded man is unstable in all his ways. If God be God, then serve him with all of your heart! It saddens me to see double lives, lets purge ourselves from filthiness of the flesh and lets receive the word of God for what it says! We cant serve God and our flesh, to be carnal minded is death! STRIVE to enter in! Serve God with sincerity, they that worship God must worship him in Spirit and in Truth!
Matthew 8:22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
Let the world do what the world does, and follow Jesus!

God's Army: Truth is INVINCIBLE
"there are no invincible armies and that there never have been" -Stalin
Sorry Stalin, but you must never heard of God's army! It is invincible. Its called the CHURCH!
2 Corinthians 13:8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
Proverbs 21:30 There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
Truth is invincible. You can’t war against God and win, period. Try as some might, and some truly are, you will not prosper against truth! There is no wisdom nor is counsel that will stand against truth; truth is invincible. Truth will never change, as much as men try to form their own doctrines.
Truth is going to save those that obey it, but its going to stand against those that will not obey it.
John 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
John 12:47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
John 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
John 12:49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
John 12:50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
Mark 13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
Eph 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
As long as we stay in God's army we are invincible, no weapon formed against us shall prosper!
