Waiting for Instruction?


Pro 8:33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
Pro 8:34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.

Pro 8:35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.

In the book of Proverbs we are instructed to Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.  The source of the instruction is very important.  As Christians we are to  receive our instruction from the Word of God.  God is the ultimate source of all wisdom and His Holy Word is the best instruction book that there is for our marriage, our life, our Christian walk and to tell us all we need to know in order to be reconciled to God and know that Heaven will be our eternal home.  Proverbs paints a beautiful picture of the believer waiting daily at the gates to receive instruction.  Daily waiting at the posts of the doors to receive what God has for him.  We need to come daily to the Word of God with an expectant heart ready to receive what God has for us.  The primary instruction of the Word of God is to teach us how to be saved.  In verse 35 of this passage of Scripture we are told that ,"For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the Lord."  Meditate upon His Word and your heart will be blessed and richly rewarded as you learn what God has for you.
