Proverbs 4:12-13 (New Living Translation) [A thought for thought translation]
12 When you walk, you won’t be held back; when you run, you won’t stumble.
13 Take hold of my instructions; don’t let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life.
Proverbs 4:12-13 (New American Standard Bible) [A word for word translation]
12 When you walk, your steps will not be impeded; And if you run, you will not stumble.
13 Take hold of instruction; do not let go. Guard her, for she is your life.
Pastor’s Thoughts
When we choose to live our lives based off of God’s Wisdom and by His Holy Spirit we will see the world in a whole different way.
The world and what it has to offer us won’t entice us like it once did. We will realize that the things the world has to offer us will be worthless in time, but the things that God offers us are eternal.
We recognize the lies before us a lot better when we have a firm grasp on the truth which is God’s Word. The only way to know when something is a fake is to be intimately aware of what a genuine looks like. It doesn’t get more genuine than God and His Word.
We will stumble a lot less when we live according to His Word, and we live determined to not let go of His Word no matter what comes to tempt us to do so.
Have a blessed Saturday everyone. I pray that you walk by God’s Word today and every day after that. Make sure to do everything you need to today to set yourself up for success to worship Jesus with a local church family tomorrow.
