Truth and Understanding
The Book of Proverbs was written about 4000 years ago. All this time latter , it's wisdom still stands the test of time.
The Proverbs are more than practical advice...........but rather , the commandments of the Living God.
There is a reason God wrote the Book of Proverbs to us :
" To know wisdom and instruction ; to percieve the words of understanding ;
To percieve the instruction of wisdom , justice , judgement and equity ;
To give subtlilty to the simple ; to the young man knowledge and discretion ;
The wise man will hear and increase in learning ; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels ;
To understand a proverb, and the interpretation ; the words of the wise , and their dark sayings ;
The fear of God is the beginning of knowledge , but fools despise wisdom and instruction ."
The Book of Proverbs , Chapter 1
So the perception of knowledge is first the attainment of wisdom and instruction. And the attainment of wisdom and instruction is first the fear of God.
When Koresh visited Israel in 1985 he sought God's wisdom and understanding and recieved instruction from the very Ancient of Days.
David told us he was overcome in the spirit and taken up past the clouds in a MERKABAH {whirlwind} to the throne of allmighty God. There , a strong vision overcame him and he saw the entire Apocalypse in a glance , like a comic book. David said the entire Book of Revelation past before his eyes in an animated flash ........smoke , fire , the sounds of voices , thunder and lighning.
God told David to change his name to KORESH , which is hebrew for Cyrus, which means " annointed one ". David hearkened unto these instructions and increased in wisdom and understanding. He began understanding the Bible like a coded puzzle and percieving difficult to unravle passages of old.
God wants us to be more like David. God wants us to hearken unto his instruction so he can increase our wisdom and understanding. David would have never been given his SEVEN SEALS message had he not first sought God's instructions.
God is a revealing God and will reveal his truth to those who seek it.........and will increase understanding to those who obey his counsel.
David is an example to us of obedience and was worthy to to take the LITTLE BOOK out of the right hand of God and loosen it's seals. When Koresh returns for the second time and annoints his two eye-witnesses, much like he was annointed himself , those who obey their instruction will be sealed with knowledge and understanding.
This seal is the seal of God , and those seek God's seal are in obedience to God's instruction...........and following God's instruction are the attainment of truth and understanding.
" Buy the truth and sell it not ; also wisdom , instruction and understanding. "
Proverbs 23:23.
