Simply Excellent

For you were once darkness, but now you are in the Lord. Walk as children of light. - Ephesians 5:8.

Someone is diligently calling all Christians for love and partnership, she is simply excellent. Who is this ? "I love those who love me and those who seek me diligently will find me. Riches and honour are with me, enduring riches and righteousness. My fruits is better than gold, yes than fine gold, and my revenue than choice silver. I traverse the way of righteousness, in the midst of justice, that I may cause those who love me to inherit wealth, that I may fill their treasuries" (Proverbs 8:17-21)

Beloved saints of the living God, who is this making such excellent offer ? She gives riches, honours, desirable riches and righteousness. She speaks right things, excellent things and truth. Every Christian believer really needs to meet her. Much more than mere acquaintance, every working Christian should like to share board with her, so well as to say to her, "For wisdom is better than rubies and all the things one may desire cannot be compared with her." (Proverbs 8:11)

But what is her name if you know her ? Where can she be found ? She has such excellent qualities and adds good value to the labours of those that know her. She helps Christians be well-motivated and make timely decisive actions in order to become great achievers of good things.

There are only 24 hours in a day, but by her a godly Christian can accomplish in a day what an ordinary, slothful and pleasure seeking so called churchgoer may not get done in a year.

Beyond human appreciation, she has supernatural appeal. She says, "The Lord possesed me at the beginning of His way, before His works of old. When He prepared the heavens, I was there, when He drew a cricle on the face of the deep. " (Proverbs 8:22-27). No wonder the Scriptures say that everything that God made in Creation was very good (Genesis 1:31). She is a divine quality of God. Praise the Lord, but do you know her name ?

Yes! Her name is WISDOM and her twin partner is called UNDERSTANDING. Wisdom is calling on every Christian to make himself/herself a name among the precious of distinction. "Wisdom is the principle thing; therefore get wisdom, and in all your getting, get understanding" (Proverbs 4:7) "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding" (Proverbs 9:10). "Buy the truth, and do not sell it, also wisdom and instruction and understanding" (Proverbs 23:23).

Faith is not founded on feelings but it stands firm on the Word of the Lord.

- Daniel O.C
