Proverbs Chapter 8 Discussion Page 3

Proverbs 8,13 Wow what an outstanding verse. To fear God is the beginning of wisdom. Phil 4,13

" " "Wisdom is personified in Jesus Christ. " " " There is wisdom in all of creation before the birth of Jesus Christ in the revolution of every proton around the nucleus as the earth and the other planets around the sun, in the alternation of the night and the day, in the cycles in nature. John 1 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ALL THINGS CAME FROM GOD, as His Plan, His Word, His Command. Everyone of us is His Word, every grain of sand nothing comes to being except as He wills. Jesus was His Word, and while the Word remained with God, the Word is God, but when the word WAS MADE FLESH, the Word WAS God. When God said "Let there be light ", those words, that Command, while it remain with God, is God, but NOT when the word became light in whatever form.

If you look for god you will find him How good is god the one who created women and men

Wisdom is personified in Jesus Christ.

Glory glory to the lamb and lion that sits on the throne,lord jesus is the wisdom of all things that were ever created ,see with the eyes of the holy one and not of flesh and you will see that Jesus is the Lord over all creations ,kings of kings, Lord of Lords..he is God the father ,God the son ,God the helper..

The Lord gracefully gives us knowledge of where our source is. The very point in which the road and dirt meets, He always appoints. His grace leads us on our way to what He has in store for us.

Let us seek, because God is kind. The door will be opened when we knock. God will not give us a snake when we ask for a chicken egg. Let us seek with our actions and our thoughts, let our body and our soul both agree in praising God.

over your short coming.

Wisdom was with the Father God in the creation of everything. Then you read God, His wisdom and all men. Notice Job 38:7 when God speaks of His creation of earth and you will see the whole family and that's every soul that ever was created. Makes you understand how God knew Jeremiah befor. Also makes you realize how God could love Jacob and hate Esau. God knows everyone, we were there. God created man and said in Our image and did not leave Him self out so we know who came here and set the example and gave His life, flesh life up for us on the cross. So read John 1 and you realize who sits on the Throne and when He sits look to the right hand to the face on the Throne and you will see who God is or at least the Image of the one your looking for because the Spirit of God is to big.

Patience can you clarify where in the Bible states that Jehovah created Jesus, and can you explain to me Jhon 1:1
Thank you

its Jesus who is the wisdom of God.

i thinks of Jesus who is the wisdom of God.

what a wonderful chapter!!!!

I have found proverbs to be enlightening and comforting. Sometimes sad at others times joyous for one man will read and say it has nothing but riddles and superficial ideas with allegorical meaning. And yet I find in all of it wise council applicable guides and treasure beyond compare. Many will write long and eloquent comments on the meaning of the word line or verse. But wisdom gives us Christ the word and the base for who we worship...

The still small voice of God take an attentive and quiet ear to hear. those who learn to discern the voice of God above all others, find themselves in a special and reserved place. A place where you stand blessed to the point of a more intimate fellowship, and daily assistance in our walk in this world and with God....32 & 34

I love Proverbs 8. It touches my mind, heart and soul with God's love. If you are lost, this chapter will give your soul guidance and peace. Glory be to our father. Amen.

I like this passage because God is offering his love to me and l want to return same love to him, as much as I can.

When the truths of the Holy Writ are put to work and honoured, we automatically become praise and adoration friendly, and that is, as unto God. And with that, the heavens cannot but open up on us. The fact is that we, as created human beings, and also as born again children of the Most High God, have been accepted already into the family of the beloved Jesus Christ, and that is that we might become wise unto salvation. Praise the LORD! As a matter of fact, based on the Scripture, we are meant to sow to ourselves, in righteousness- and with that, there are heaven's guaranteed rewards that glorify and honour the LORD God that He will permit toward us. That of course is one of the intent of the book of Proverbs; for it has all manner of issues that it covers and deals with. It is such an excellent and encouraging segment of the Scripture. It has warnings, admonitions, corrections, and directions inherent in it for he that believeth. And therefore, the Just shall live through the weaponry of faith, and faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. What do these mean? Well, it connotes and reflects, that even though we may have heard some things about God Word before and learn them, yet we must keep giving committed and unwavering attention to the Word of God- and also continue to live and honour God through what we have heard and learnt from His Word. Why is this? It is because, we belong to the things of the Holy Spirit- and God's Word works beautifully, wonderfully and remarkably.

Wisdom and understanding, We need to ask God for wisdom and understanding daily. Those who don't seek this values from God can find their lives on a very hard road.

Proverbs 8 starts with two provoking and penetrating questions! In other words, can you hear the cry of Wisdom and knowledge in the society where you are and where you go! Interestingly, hardly is there any profession or discipline that does not have its light, but the light of the Gospel of our LORD Jesus Christ, surpasses all of them. And therefore, through this chapter, we have an invitation to examine ourselves and look, as it were, very carefully and thoroughly in to who we are and what we are into. You see, in the work place, if you have even been involved in any sort of work, you are likely to notice that if you must get for instance to the top of the ladder in that sort of organisation or whatever, you can’t ignore hard work, high level of discipline, passion, integrity, and also commitment that is more than the ordinary. And, in all civilised society particularly in the Western World- and also in some others, you can notice elements of order, wherever you go. These did not suddenly happen- and often there must have been years of hard work, planning and all manner of inputs into it- and that is why sometimes you can smell migrants relocating into some of these areas from other places. But what has this got to do with Proverbs 8? Well, you see, in life, all things have some measure relativity with one another. Therefore, the importance and the high relevance and necessity of the Word of God, in the life of a Christian. The fact is that, if we are genuinely born again we must have heard that, as far as the Kingdom of God is concerned, your fellowship and intimacy with the Triune God, and the level of investment that we commit in terms of prayerful time in His Word can’t be ignored. There are spaces and there are seats? There are dominions and there are thrones? There are doors and there are entrances. The truth is that the space that you give God is what He will occupy and that is because it is the entrance of God’s Word into the spiritual man that giveth light, Psalm 119:130. In fact it says: To the law and to the testimony if they speak not according to this book, it is because there is no light in them, Isaiah 8:20. This also points to the importance of true knowledge of the Holy Writ- and it can’t simply happen except we are really serious about it. It is also true that what you pay attention to has one way of the other, of determining the course of your life- hence the immense relevance of intensive immersion in the Holy Writ- and that is through, whatever manner of the dispensing and administering of the preached Word that comes your way. If the Holy Writ says: ‘’Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness…’’, Matthew 6:33; that is precisely what it meaneth! It is also the case that if it says, ‘’Delight yourself in the LORD and He shall give you the desires of your heart’’ ( Psalm 37:4), indicating and connoting, investment of great amount of time in God’s Word, through prayers , fellowship with God, reflecting upon His Word, and the practice of it, then that is what it sayeth! That means you and I, are the ones to determine the measure of obedience that we put in place vis a vis the will of God as He reveals it to us differently. The interesting things about it is that no matter your depth of knowledge about these things, God’s Word is unfathomable, and when you become a student of His Word, very soon, you would come to an understanding that, God, in His righteousness, love, holiness and immeasurable generosity, is truly and really worthy of honour, adoration, praise and worship. Blessed be His holy name forever and ever. Hallelujah!

Be watchful, and careful of your time. You have choices and to make the right ones. You first need to be instructed on the wrong ones. Everything depends on the outcome and what we learn from what happens to us also.

I need more feedback on this verse, more understanding. And on Proverbs 8:34.

GOD IS GREAT

Jesus is crying for souls that are not seeking HIM. He calls everywhere all those simpletons who live out of their own accord, requesting them to seek HIM early when HE can be found; "those shall seek me early shall find me." HE says nothing can equal him...not even precious jewels; in fact, durable riches, righteous and honor are with HIM... Why then do we meander? Anyone who slips back hates his own soul and loves death, but those who love Him have life.. What a blessed assurance, JESUS is mine!! HE was!! What else on earth do I need?

I LOVE IT THAT JESUS IS ALWAYS THERE WITH US BEFORE ,DURING and AFTER our trials.JESUS sustains us whether we acknowledge it or not

patience, you are wrong. it says Jesus was there from the beginning, just like it says in john 1 vs. 1 the word was God. do not let witnesses deceive you with another gospel like the galatians. please read all Gods word rightly dividing THE WORD OF GOD.

I CANNOT PUT LIMITATIONS on JESUS.HE IS SPIRIT,not limited by time or space.SINCE HE is "ONE"and unlimited by time and space ,is it possible JESUS could be laying HIS LIFE DOWN FOR ME ,walking on the water,healing blind BARTIMAEUS,and saying,"LET THERE BE LIGHT",all at the same moment?(food for thought)

OVER the years of hardship and lifelessness,i sincerely encourage those that have breath to hate evil as JESUS does .evil separates us from our closeness with JESUS...SAY no to drugs and promiscuity...(sleeping around)...death awaits!JESUS LOVES YOU ....

PROVERBS 8 shows us that God's wisdom is the main thing anyone will get once we are in tune w/ his will and heart..
not knowledge nor salvation...
having wisdom coming from God himself is greater than anything else since it was there before the universe was created...
this passage dont talk about God's sovereignity or Jesus being God...it talks about wisdom and how are we to view it...
that;s why it said at the begginning of the passage
"Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?"

I WONDER how many people who think they are saved ,really arent.I must be saved according to JESUS `S WORDS and COMMANDS. ACTS 2 ;38 all the way.
